Abstract

N-phenyl-N’-(2-nitrobenzoyl)thiourea has been synthesized in high yield under PEG-400 as the phase-transfer catalyst. The structure of the synthesized substituted thiourea was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. In DMSO solutions, L1 exhibited selective recognition for F^–, OAc^– and H₂PO₄^–. In addition, the compound is also a considerable plant-growth regulator.
