• Macrocyclic complex
• Cu2+ sensor
• Naked eye detection

A new tetra-nuclear sulphate bridged complex (Cu-4(SaITCB)(4)(SO4)(2)) was prepared based on benzyl 2-(2-hydroxybenzylidene)-1-methylhydrazine-1-carbodithioate (SaITCB) ligand and characterized by IR, UV vis spectroscopy, HR ESI-MS, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray. Solid-state X-ray results revealed that this complex was a sulphate-bridged macrocycle interwoven from four Cu2+ and four ligand molecules. The coordination property of SaITCB to Cu2+ was investigated as selective colorimetric Cu2+ sensor in buffered aqueous-acetonitrile. This sensing property was studied in detail by different spectroscopic analysis. The limit of detection (LOD) for Cu2+ was as low as 0.51 mu M. Similarly, ChrDTCB solution based methodology was developed that afforded instant naked eye detection of Cu2+.
