Pseudopeptidic receptors containing an acridine unit have been prepared and their fluorescence response to a series of amino acids was measured in water. Free amino acids, not protected either at the C or the N terminus, were used for this purpose. The prepared receptors display a selective response to tryptophan (Trp) versus the other assayed amino acids under acidic conditions. The macrocyclic nature of the receptor is important as the fluorescence quenching is higher for the macrocyclic compound than for the related open-chain receptor. Notably, under the experimental acidic conditions used, both the receptor and guest are fully protonated and positively charged; thus, the experimental results suggest the formation of supramolecular species that contain two positively charged organic molecular components in proximity stabilized through aromatic–aromatic interactions and a complex set of cation-anion-cation interactions. The selectivity towards Trp seems to be based on the existence of a strong association between the indole ring of the monocharged amino acid and the acridinium fragment of the triprotonated form of the receptor, which is established to be assisted by the interaction of the cationic moieties with hydrogen sulfate anions.
