The same synthesis was reproduced by a green methodology using an ultrasonication reaction in a classical sonication bath. The structure of the new compound was confirmed by elemental analysis, IR, 1H-NMR, MALDI-TOF-MS and EI-MS-spectra, UV-vis and fluorescence emission spectroscopy. %K imine compounds %K fluorescence chemosensors %K 2 %K 2¡¯-bithiophene %U http://www.mdpi.com/1422-8599/2010/2/M683
