Four fluorescent probes for zinc ion based on Schiff bases were synthesized from ethylenediamine and salicylaldehyde derivatives and their structures were characterized by ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, and IR. The spectral analysis results show that probe L2 has better selectivity and sensitivity to Zn²⁺ than other probes and the detection limit of probe L2 was 92.15 nmol·L^-1. There was a good linear relationship between the fluorescence intensity of probe L2 and the concentration of Zn²⁺ in a range of 0 to 10 μmol·L^-1. The visible fluorescence color change was observed with the naked eye under the ultraviolet lamp. The recognition mechanism was studied by Job's plot, NMR titration experiment, density functional theory calculation, and the crystal structure of the L2 - Zn²⁺ complex. The results showed that probe L2 was complexed with Zn²⁺ in a molar ratio of 1∶1. In addition, probe L2 could detect Zn²⁺ in actual water samples.
