Abstract
Novel hexakisurea and thiourea cyclotriphosphazene compounds (3-7) were synthesized. The structure of all compounds was identified using FT-IR $^{1}$H, $^{13}$C, and $^{31}$P NMR spectroscopy; MALDI-TOF MS; and elemental analysis. The optical sensor properties for anions of 3-7 were investigated using UV-Vis spectroscopy. It was determined that compounds 6 and 7 are spectrophotometric and naked eye sensors for F$^{-}$ and CN$^{-}$ anions, respectively. Sensor properties of these compounds for anions were investigated using UV-Vis spectroscopy. The stoichiometry of host-guest complexes was found to be 1:6.
