Materials and method: The chemical such as 3-nitro-4-choloro coumarin, di picolyl amine, Hg(ClO 4 ) 2, Cd(ClO 4 ) 2, Zn(ClO 4 ) 2, Ni(ClO 4 ) 2, Co(ClO 4 ) 2, Pb(ClO 4 ) 2, Fe(ClO 4 ) 2, Cu(ClO 4 ) 2, Cr(ClO 4 ) 2, and different nucleotides (adenosine 5 -monophosphate monohydrate, adenosine 5 -diphosphate sodium salt, adenosine 5 -triphosphate disodium hydrate, cytidine 5 -triphosphate disodium salt hydrate) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich and were used as received without any further purification. Other salts like, NaF, NaI, NaBr, NaOAc, NaCl, NaH 2 PO 4, Na 4 P 2 O 7, Na 2 SO 4, NaNO 3 and all the other reagents used were of reagent grade (S. D. Fine chemical, India) and were used as received. Various analytical and spectroscopic data obtained for L, LZn and LCd agreed well with the proposed formulation and required purity. HPLC grade water (Fisher scientific) was used as a solvent. Ethyl acetate and methanol, which were used for different synthetic procedures, were purified through distillation following standard procedures, prior to use. Microanalysis (C, H, N) were performed using a Perkin-Elmer 4100 elemental analyzer. FTIR spectra were recorded as KBr pellets using Perkin Elmer Spectra GX 2000 spectrometer. 1 H and 31 P NMR spectra were recorded on Bruker 200 MHz (Avance-DPX 200)/ 500 MHz (Bruker Avance II 500) FT NMR. Electronic spectra were recorded with Cary-Varian UV-VIS NIR spectrophotometer. Fluorescence spectra were recorded using Fluorolog (Horiba Jobin Yvon) or Edinburgh F920 (Edinburgh Instrument) fluorescence spectrometer.

ESI figure 10, 11, reveals that there is no interaction of Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) with L.Zn and L.Cd in absence of Na 4 P 2 O 7 (NaPPi) in aqueous 0.01mmol HEPES buffer (ph-7.4) medium. We had made two different types assay. First one has (i) L.M n+ (M = Zn 2+, Cd 2+ ) 2.0 x10-5 M; while the second one has (ii) L.M n+ (M = Zn 2+, Cd 2+ ) 2.0 x10-5 M + ALP (100 nm) in 0.01M aqueous HEPES buffer (ph-7.4) medium. The emission spectra were recorded for the first aliquot then the emission intensity of the second aliquot was measured after 900 sec of mixing ALP. No change in the emission spectral pattern was observed after addition of ALP to both the metal complexes (L.Zn and L.Cd) in absence of Na 4 P 2 O 7 (NaPPi), which confirms that there is no interaction between L.Zn or L.Cd and ALP. Again the significant change in the emission intensity of L.Zn and L.Cd in presence both Na 4 P 2 O 7 and ALP implied that enzymatic hydrolysis of PPi by ALP reduces the effective concentration of PPi in the medium and thus effective concentration of L.Zn-PPi or L.Cd-PPi in the medium and resulted overall changes in the emission intensity. 11
