1-Pyrenecarboxaldehyde (PCA) is a bifunctional molecule with pyrene moiety and one aldehyde group. The pyrene moiety interacts with the side walls of carbon nanotubes(CNT) through π-π stacking which leads to the uniform immobilization of PCA on the CNT surface. Therefore, it is widely used for the surface functionalization of CNTs. It can also be used to fabricate fluorescent chemosensors.
Features and Benefits
Exhibits reversible tuning properties with temperature and the properties depend upon the solvent environment.[1]

The synthesis of the meso-tetra(pyren-1-yl)porphyrin (1) was successfully accomplished by means of the pyrrole condensation with pyrene-1-carb-aldehyde in acidic media. Its metallization was carried out in an almost quantitative yield to obtain the corresponding complexes of Ni(II) (2), Cu(II) (3)
This work reports a facile strategy for the synthesis of water-soluble fluorescent probes Pyr1 and Pyr2, which have carboxyl and hydroxyl group in the side chain of thioacetal moiety, respectively. Pyr1-2 exhibit exclusively selective turn-on fluorescence response towards Hg
