A series of acridinium salt-based probes capable of detecting fluoride and acetate anions via a nucleophilic attack at the C9 position of the acridinium moiety is reported. The formation of corresponding acridane displays drastic changes, in both UV-vis absorption and fluorescence emission. The sensing mechanism is a reversible process upon treating either tetrafluoroborate salt or an acid.

A new, selective chemosensor has been developed to detect cyanide in water at micromolar concentrations. The acridinium salt used in this sensor system is prepared in a single step from an acridine orange base. Detection is based on the irreversible, 1:1 stoichiometric, nucleophilic addition of cyanide to the 9-position of the acridinium ion.
