摘要

This study presents a novel ratiometric fluorescent silicon nanoparticles (LSiNPs) system for enantioselective recognition of tryptophan. The LSiNPs were synthesized by DAMO, rhodamine B and chiral ligand L-Lys via a one-pot method at room temperature. Upon increasing L-Trp concentration, the fluorescence intensity of the system at 440 nm progressively enhanced while maintaining stability at 575 nm, whereas D-Trp showed negligible effects. The sensor demonstrated an enantioselectivity coefficient of 11.7, enabling quantitative detection of L-Trp and determining enantiomeric composition in racemic mixtures. LSiNPs exhibits good selectivity towards L-Trp among 13 typical amino acid enantiomers. It can be applied to detect L-Trp in L-Tryptophan capsules rapidly and accurately. The recognition mechanism of tryptophan enantiomers was studied, indicating that the modification of chiral ligand L-Lys plays an important role in the recognition process. This work establishes a “turn-on” ratiometric strategy for chiral recognition of tryptophan enantiomers, offering new perspectives for enantiomer differentiation.
