Naphthalimide based reversible colorimetric and luminescent sensor for detecting trace water in organic solvent

Key Points

• To develop a naphthalimide-based sensor for the detection of trace amounts of water in organic solvents.
• Developed a naphthalimide-based colorimetric and luminescent sensor.
• Tested the sensor in common organic solvents such as THF and DMSO.
• Evaluated the sensor's ability to visually detect and quantify water presence.
• Successfully detected trace amounts of water in various organic solvents.
• Demonstrated reversible changes in color and luminescence based on water concentration.
