Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is a highly invasive malignant tumor of the liver, which is the main cause of cancer-related death. The cancerization of hepatocytes may lead to the changes of cell microenvironment, active substances, and enzymes. Viscosity is one of the important parameters of cell microenvironment. Therefore, the study of the change in the viscosity of hepatocytes is very important for the detection and treatment of liver cancer. However, the hepatocyte-specific fluorescent probes which can detect viscosity have not been developed yet. Herein, the first hepatocyte-specific fluorescent probe (HT-V) for viscosity detection was designed and synthesized, which exhibited excellent optical properties for biological imaging studies. By using the unique probe HT-V, compared with the normal liver cells, a significant increase of viscosity in the liver cancer cells was observed in the cell imaging experiment. The organ imaging experiments showed that the probe HT-V could be successfully used to diagnose and image hepatocellular carcinoma in vivo. In addition, in situ imaging revealed that the new probe HT-V can specifically target and image hepatocellular carcinoma in mice. We expected that this powerful tool may provide guidance for the detection and imaging of hepatocellular carcinoma in the future.

Abstract
The discovery of a near-infrared (NIR, 650-900 nm) fluorescent chromophore hemicyanine dye with high structural tailorability is of great significance in the field of detection, bioimaging, and medical therapeutic applications. It exhibits many outstanding advantages including absorption and emission in the NIR region, tunable spectral properties, high photostability as well as a large Stokes shift. These properties are superior to those of conventional fluorogens, such as coumarin, fluorescein, naphthalimides, rhodamine, and cyanine. Researchers have made remarkable progress in developing activity-based multifunctional fluorescent probes based on hemicyanine skeletons for monitoring vital biomolecules in living systems through the output of fluorescence/photoacoustic signals, and integration of diagnosis and treatment of diseases using chemotherapy or photothermal/photodynamic therapy or combination therapy. These achievements prompted researchers to develop more smart fluorescent probes using a hemicyanine fluorogen as a template. In this review, we begin by describing the brief history of the discovery of hemicyanine dyes, synthetic approaches, and design strategies for activity-based functional fluorescent probes. Then, many selected hemicyanine-based probes that can detect ions, small biomolecules, overexpressed enzymes and diagnostic reagents for diseases are systematically highlighted. Finally, potential drawbacks and the outlook for future investigation and clinical medicine transformation of hemicyanine-based activatable functional probes are also discussed.

Abstract
Abstract:
The binding of anions by highly-coloured chromophore compounds is of interest from the point-of-view of the development of optical sensors for analyte species. In this review, we have summarised our work on the interactions between oxoporphyrinogen type host compounds and different analyte species using computational methods. The origin of our interest in sensing using oxoporphyrinogens stems from an initial finding involving anion-host interactions involving a conjugated oxoporphyrinogen molecule. This review starts from that point, introducing some additional exemplary anion binding data, which is then elaborated to include descriptions of our synthesis work towards multitopic and ion pair interactions. In all the projects, we have consulted computational data on host structure and host-guest complexes in order to obtain information about the interactions occurring during complexation. Density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulations have been extensively used for these purposes. Oxoporphyrinogens are highly colored synthetically flexible compounds whose interactions with anions, ion pairs, and other species have been modelled using computational methods.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is considered to be one of the main contributors of cyclophosphamide (CP)-induced toxicity, and the generation of free radicals will cause the interruption of multiple signal transduction pathways. Peroxynitrite (ONOO-) has strong oxidation and nitrification ability and is considered as an indirect indicator of oxidative stress. Therefore, it is necessary to design a fluorescent probe that can detect ONOO- and monitor CP-induced oxidative stress during chemotherapy. Herein, we synthesized a lipid droplet targeting fluorescent probe SX-1 based on triphenylamine-benzoindocyanine. When ONOO- is added to the probe SX-1, the CC bond in the probe is broken, thereby releasing fluorescence. The good spectral response characteristics enable SX-1 to successfully track the fluctuations of ONOO- in living cells. Most importantly, we provided the first visual evidence that the level of ONOO- in HeLa cells was up-regulated under CP induction. All results indicated that SX-1 has great potential in detecting drug-induced ONOO-, and provided a new detection tool for a deeper understanding of drug-induced organism injury.

Abstract
Estrogen receptor β (ERβ) is associated with many diseases, and ERβ probes can help to reveal the complex role of ERβ and promote the development of ERβ-targeted therapy. Herein, we designed and synthesized the first ERβ-targeted near-infrared (NIR) inherently fluorescent probe P5, which showed the advantages of high ERβ selectivity, good optical properties, and excellent ERβ imaging capability in living cells. The probe was successfully utilized to explore ERβ motion characteristic, and for the first time, the diffusion coefficient of ERβ was obtained. Moreover, P5 was also successfully applied to the in vivo imaging of ERβ in the prostate cancer mice model. Therefore, this ERβ-targeted NIR probe might be employed as a potential tool for the research of ERβ and related diseases.

Abstract
Subcellular organelles play an indispensable role in various biological process. Therefore, it is very important to develop fluorescent probe to identify different organelles and their dynamics in specific biological processes. Herein, a new fluorescent probe has been prepared, which can be used to visualize cell death via targeting mitochondria and lipid droplets (LDs) in dual-emission channels. The new probe appeared in the form of ring-open in mitochondria to emit strong yellow fluorescence in living cells, while it carried out intramolecular spiral cyclization reaction to target LDs and give a cyan emission in dead cells. The performance of cell death in the UV-exposure, lipopolysaccharide and hydrogen peroxide treatment is successfully revealed by the probe. The probe has great potential in dual colour biomedical imaging of dynamic changes of mitochondria and LDs in biological processes.

Abstract
The sensing mechanism of 3-hydroxyflavone-based (3-HF) fluorescent chemodosimeter 3-triisopropylsilylflavone (3-TPSF) for detecting fluoride (F-) has been theoretically investigated. The calculated Laplacian bond order confirms that the Si-O bond of 3-TPSF is the reaction site of F-. The free energy barrier of 18.33 kcal mol-1 indicates that F-triggered desilylation reaction can occur and then form the anionic state of 3-HF (3-HF-) with a fluorescence peak at 545 nm. 3-HF- captures H+ of the mixed aqueous medium to be transformed into 3-HF with an intramolecular hydrogen bond (O1-H⋯O2). The energy barrier of 1.86 kcal mol-1 in the S1 state obtained from the constructed potential energy curves confirms that the excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) in 3-HF occurs to form a tautomer structure, which produces a long-wavelength emission of 549 nm. The fluorescence emitted from both 3-HF- and 3-HF agrees with the experimental value of 530 nm appearing after adding F-. Charge transfer analyses indicate that the extent of intramolecular charge transfer in 3-HF- is more intense than that of 3-TPSF, which induces a large Stokes shift of 180 nm. Therefore, the sensing mechanism is attributed to the combination of a large charge transfer feature and ESIPT that are caused by desilylation reaction. The significant fluorescence change makes 3-TPSF a chemodosimeter for detecting F-.

Abstract
V-shaped xanthene dyes capable of predicting absorption and emission wavelengths are described. These dyes were synthesized by bridging a xanthene ring and an aryl moiety of fluorescein through ether covalent bonds. These dyes showed longer absorption and emission wavelengths than those of the parent fluorescein. Furthermore, substituents introduced on the aryl moiety mainly affected the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy level of the molecule. Therefore, the Hammett substituent constants could be used to predict the absorption and emission wavelengths of the compound.

Abstract
Plants have complex internal signaling pathways to quickly adjust to environmental changes and harvest energy from the environment. Facing the growing population, there is an urgent need for plant transformation and precise monitoring of plant growth to improve crop yields. Nanotechnology, an interdisciplinary research field, has recently been boosting plant yields and meeting global energy needs. In this context, a new field, "plant nanoscience," which describes the interaction between plants and nanotechnology, emerges as the times require. Nanosensors, nanofertilizers, nanopesticides, and nano-plant genetic engineering are of great help in increasing crop yields. Nanogenerators are helping to develop the potential of plants in the field of energy harvesting. Furthermore, the uptake and internalization of nanomaterials in plants and the possible effects are also worthy of attention. In this review, a forward-looking perspective on the plant nanoscience is presented and feasible solutions for future food shortages and energy crises are provided.

Abstract
Bacterial infections remain a global healthcare problem that is particularly attributed to the spread of antibiotic resistance and the evolving pathogenicity. Accurate and swift approaches for infection diagnosis are urgently needed to facilitate antibiotic stewardship and effective medical treatment. Direct optical imaging for specific bacterial labeling and infection detection offers an attractive prospect of precisely monitoring the infectious disease status and therapeutic response in real time. This feature article focuses on the recent advances of small-molecule probes developed for fluorescent imaging of bacteria and infection, which covers the probe design, responsive mechanisms and representative applications. In addition, the perspective and challenges to advance small-molecule fluorescent probes in the field of rapid drug-resistant bacterial detection and clinical diagnosis of bacterial infections are discussed. We envision that the continuous advancement and clinical translations of such a technique will have a strong impact on future anti-infective medicine.

Abstract
Cellular senescence, a process that arrests the cell cycle, is a cellular response mechanism for various stresses and is implicated in aging and various age-related diseases. However, the understanding of senescence in living organisms is insufficient, largely due to the scarcity of sensitive tools for the detection of cellular senescence in vivo. Herein, we describe the development of a self-immobilizing near-infrared (NIR) fluorogenic probe that can be activated by senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal), the most widely used senescence marker. The NIR signal is turned on only in the presence of SA-β-Gal, and the fluorescence signal is retained to the site of activation via in situ labeling, significantly enhancing the sensitivity of the probe. We demonstrate its efficient noninvasive imaging of senescence in mice xenograft models.

Abstract
Development of novel near-infrared (NIR) emitters is essential for satisfying the growing demands of advancing optical telecommunication and medical technology. We synthesized elemental skeletons composed of robust π-conjugated systems including two boron-fused azo groups, which showed an intense emission in the red or near-infrared (NIR) region both in solution and solid states. Two types of bisboron complexes with different aromatic linkers showed emission properties with larger bathochromic shifts and emission efficiencies in solution than the corresponding monoboron complex. Transient absorption spectroscopy disclosed that the inferior optical properties of the monoboron complex can be attributed to fast nonradiative deactivation accompanied by a large structural relaxation after photoexcitation. The expanded π-conjugated system through multiple boron-fused azo groups can contribute to rigid molecular skeletons followed by improved emission properties. Moreover, the anti-form of the bisboron complex with fluorine groups in the opposite directions to the π-plane exhibited crystallization-induced emission enhancement in the NIR region. The molecular design by using multiple boron-fused azo groups is expected to be a critical strategy for creating novel NIR emitters.

Abstract
Imbalanced iron homeostasis plays a crucial role in neurological diseases, yet direct imaging evidence revealing the distribution of active ferrous iron (Fe2+) in the living brain remains scarce. Here, we present a near-infrared excited two-photon fluorescent probe (FeP) for imaging changes of Fe2+ flux in the living epileptic mouse brain. In vivo 3D two-photon brain imaging with FeP directly revealed abnormal elevation of Fe2+ in the epileptic mouse brain. Moreover, we found that dihydroartemisinin (DHA), a lead compound discovered through probe-based high-throughput screening, plays a critical role in modulating iron homeostasis. In addition, we revealed that DHA might exert its antiepileptic effects by modulating iron homeostasis in the brain and finally inhibiting ferroptosis. This work provides a reliable chemical tool for assessing the status of ferrous iron in the living epileptic mouse brain and may aid the rapid discovery of antiepileptic drug candidates.

Abstract
Amorphous nonconjugated room-temperature phosphorescent (RTP) polymers have aroused ever-increasing attention. However, the variety of such polymers is still rare due to limited preparation strategies. Herein, we report a facile strategy to achieve ultralong RTP emission in biobased nonconjugated polymers through a hydrolyzation process. The investigated polymers are synthesized by free radical solution copolymerization using biomass methyl isoeugenol and maleic anhydride as monomers. Noticeably, the obtained polymers carry no conventional fluorescent units but can exhibit blue fluorescence. More interestingly, after hydrolysis in sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, the resulting hydrolyzed polymers emit both enhanced blue emission and persistent RTP (up to 400 ms) under air conditions, with reversible emission performance switched via the uptake and removal of water. Also worthy to be highlighted is that the emission can be remarkably regulated by the cations in carboxylate or the substituents on the benzene ring. The as-obtained polymers demonstrate potential applications in anticounterfeiting and information encryption.

Abstract
Human serum albumin (HSA), as the most abundant protein in blood plasma, plays a crucial role in many physiological processes. The abnormal HSA level in serum or in urine is often associated with various diseases. Therefore, to achieve highly sensitive and selective quantification of HSA is of great importance for disease diagnosis and preventive medicine. Herein, an HSA-selective light-up fluorescent sensor, DCM-ML, was successfully developed for quantitative detection of HSA. DCM-ML exhibited good (photo-) stability and strong fluorescence enhancement around 630 nm in the presence of HSA in complex samples containing numerous biological analytes. Upon addition of HSA into DCM-ML containing solution, a good linear relationship (R2 > 0.99) between the fluorescence intensity of DCM-ML and HSA concentration from 0 to 0.08 mg/mL was obtained with the detection limit of 0.25 μg/mL. The sensing mechanism of the sensor towards HSA was demonstrated to be via recognition in the fatty acid site 1 (FA1), instead of the most reported binding sites (Sudlow I and II) in HSA, for the first time, by both the displacement experiments and molecular docking simulation. Thus, DCM-ML can also be assumed as a potential FA1 site-binding marker for examining drugs binding to the FA1 site in HSA. At last, the utilization of sensor DCM-ML for quantification and validation of HSA in urine samples and cell culture medium was effectively demonstrated. Therefore, the development of DCM-ML should find great application potentials in the fields of analytical chemistry and clinical medicine as a highly sensitive HSA sensor.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging agents have recently received huge attention due to their important role in disease diagnostics. However, the intrinsic problems of these probes, such as complex synthetic routes and high molecular weight, remain challenging. Here, we developed novel phenaleno isoquinolinium-based fluorescent agents, Medical Fluorophores 37-41 (MF37-41), applicable to the quantitative and sensitive detection of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). These imaging agents showed no adverse effects on the proliferation of immune and normal cells and did not induce in vivo toxicity. In vivo fluorescence lifetime imaging demonstrated the accumulation of phenaleno isoquinolinium salts in the SLNs of nude mice within 15 min postinjection, consistent with our biodistribution findings. These results suggest that phenaleno isoquinolinium salts are feasible fluorescence imaging agents that can be used as potential lymphatic tracers.

Abstract
Furin is an important cellular endoprotease, which is expressed at high levels in various cancer cells. Accurate and real-time detection of endogenous furin with high sensitivity and selectivity is significant for the diagnosis of cancer. Herein an activatable nanoprobe (MoS2@PDA-PEG/peptide, MPPF) with dual-mode near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF)/ratiometric photoacoustic (PA) imaging of endogenous furin activity has been developed. The MPPF nanoprobes were constructed by the covalent functionalization of polydopamine (PDA) coated MoS2 nanosheets (NSs) with Cy7-labeled furin substrate peptides. Upon cleavage of the peptides by furin, Cy7 molecules are released from MPPF nanoprobes and recover their fluorescence, realizing furin activity detection with the limit of detection (LOD) down to 3.73 × 10-4 U mL-1. Meanwhile, the ratio of the PA signal at 768 nm to that at 900 nm (PA768/PA900) decreases over time due to the destruction of fluorescence resonance energy transfer effect from Cy7 to MoS2 NSs and the rapid clearance of small Cy7 molecules from tissues. Thus, the simultaneous change in NIRF and ratiometric PA signals enables the imaging of endogenous furin activity in real time, and with high sensitivity, and high selectivity in both tumor cells and tumor-bearing mice.

Abstract
In the current communication, a simple, environmentally compatible, non-toxic green chemistry process is used for the development of silver nanoparticles (AgZE) by the reaction between silver nitrate (AgNO3) and the ethanolic leaf extract of Zinnia elegans (ZE). The optimization of AgZE is carried out using a series of experiments. Various physico-chemical techniques are utilized to characterize the nanomaterials. The cell viability assay of AgZE in normal cells (CHO, HEK-293T, EA.hy926, and H9c2) shows their biocompatible nature, which is supported by hemolytic assay using mouse RBC. Interestingly, the nanoparticles exhibited cytotoxicity towards different cancer cell lines (U-87, MCF-7, HeLa, PANC-1 and B16F10). The detailed anticancer activity of AgZE on human glioblastoma cell line (U-87) is exhibited through various in vitro assays. In vivo the AgZE illustrates anticancer activity by inhibiting blood vessel formation through CAM assay. Furthermore, the AgZE nanoparticles when intraperitoneally injected in C57BL6/J mice (with and without tumor) exhibit fluorescence properties in the NIR region (excitation: 710 nm, emission: 820 nm) evidenced by bioimaging studies. The AgZE biodistribution through ICPOES analysis illustrates the presence of silver in different vital organs. Considering all the results, AgZE could be useful as a potential cancer therapeutic agent, as well as an NIR based non-invasive imaging tool in near future.

Abstract
In the field of optical sensors, small molecules responsive to metal cations are of current interest. Probes displaying aggregation-induced emission (AIE) can solve the problems due to the aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) molecules, scarcely emissive as aggregates in aqueous media and in tissues. The addition of a metal cation to an AIE ligand dissolved in solution can cause a "turn-on" of the fluorescence emission. Half-cruciform-shaped molecules can be a winning strategy to build specific AIE probes. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a novel L-shaped fluorophore containing a benzofuran core condensed with 3-hydroxy-2-naphthaldehyde crossed with a nitrobenzene moiety. The novel AIE probe produces a fast colorimetric and fluorescence response toward zinc (II) in both in neutral and basic conditions. Acting as a tridentate ligand, it produces a complex with enhanced and red-shifted emission in the DR/NIR spectral range. The AIE nature of both compounds was examined on the basis of X-ray crystallography and DFT analysis.

Abstract
Nanotheranostic tailor-made carriers are potent platforms for the treatment of cancer that propound a number of advantages over conventional agents for photodynamic therapy (PDT). Herein, four new heavy atom free amphiphilic glucose-BODIPY-fullerene dyads (14-17) endowed with carbohydrate units in the styryl units, which can also form nanomicelles (14-17NM) with Tween 80 for PDT are reported. Glucose-BODIPY-fullerene systems (14-17) and related nanomicelles (14-17NM) have been prepared to emcee efficient singlet oxygen generation upon light irradiation. In vitro anti-tumor effects of the compounds 14-17 and 14-17NM in the presence of light and in darkness have been investigated with K562 human chronic myelogenous leukemia suspension cells. Anti-tumor toxicity upon light irradiation was due to the formation of singlet oxygen and reactive oxygen species (ROS). This study may provide an accomplished example of efficient PDT applications based on nanovehicles fabricated with universal spin converter, fullerene, light harvesting unit, BODIPY dyes conjugated with targeting units to fight against cancer.

Abstract
Fluorescent nanoparticles (NPs) with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics hold remarkable potential for image-guided phototherapy. The molecular packing is the key point for optimizing the performance of AIE luminogens (AIEgens) in the aggregated or solid state. However, so far, the packing mode of AIEgens in NPs is still vague, causing some challenges for understanding the relationship between the photophysical property and packing mode, as well as further optimizing the performance of NPs for biomedical applications. In this contribution, by simply controlling the length of alkoxy chains in the donor-acceptor conjugated OPTPA, a packing balance between the twisted molecular structure and effective π-conjugation is actualized. Subsequently, the possibility of amorphous-crystalline transition of AIEgens in the polymer-encapsulated NPs is presented for the first time, and the comprehensive performance of NPs is further optimized. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments indicate that crystalline AIEgen-based NPs are remarkably effective in trimodal imaging-guided synergistic phototherapy.

Abstract
Early specific detection through indicative biomarkers and precise visualization of lesion sites are urgent requirements for clinical disease diagnosis. However, current detection and optical imaging methods are insufficient for these demands. Molecular imaging technologies are being intensely studied for reliable medical diagnosis. In the past several decades, molecular imaging with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has significant advances from analytical chemistry to medical science. SERS is the inelastic scattering generated from the interaction between photons and substances, presenting molecular structure information. The outstanding SERS virtues of high sensitivity, high specificity, and resistance to biointerference are highly advantageous for biomarker detection in a complex biological matrix. In this work, we review recent progress on the applications of SERS imaging in clinical diagnostics. With the assistance of SERS imaging, the detection of disease-related proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, and pH of the cellular microenvironment can be implemented for adjuvant medical diagnosis. Moreover, multimodal imaging integrates the high penetration and high speed of other imaging modalities and imaging precision of SERS imaging, resulting in final complete and accurate imaging outcomes and exhibiting robust potential in the discrimination of pathological tissues and surgical navigation. As a promising molecular imaging technology, SERS imaging has achieved remarkable performance in clinical diagnostics and the biomedical realm. It is expected that this review will provide insights for further development of SERS imaging and promote the rapid progress and successful translation of advanced molecular imaging with clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
GFP-like fluorescent proteins and their molecular mimics have revolutionized bioimaging research, but their emissions are largely limited in the visible to far-red region, hampering the in vivo applications in intact animals. Herein, we structurally modulate GFP-like chromophores using a donor-acceptor-acceptor (D-A-A') molecular configuration to discover a set of novel fluorogenic derivatives with infrared-shifted spectra. These chromophores can be fluorescently elicited by their specific interaction with G-quadruplex (G4), a unique noncanonical nucleic acid secondary structure, via inhibition of the chromophores' twisted-intramolecular charge transfer. This feature allows us to create, for the first time, FP mimics with tunable emission in the near-infrared (NIR) region (Emmax = 664-705 nm), namely, infrared G-quadruplex mimics of FPs (igMFP). Compared with their FP counterparts, igMFPs exhibit remarkably higher quantum yields, larger Stokes shift, and better photostability. In a proof-of-concept application using pathogen-related G4s as the target, we exploited igMFPs to directly visualize native hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA genome in living cells via their in situ formation by the chromophore-bound viral G4 structure in the HCV core gene. Furthermore, igMFPs are capable of high contrast HCV RNA imaging in living mice bearing a HCV RNA-presenting mini-organ, providing the first application of FP mimics in whole-animal imaging.

Abstract
The development of a near-infrared fluorophore with excellent fluorescence performance, a large Stokes shift, and good biocompatibility has become a focus in the field of fluorescence imaging in recent years. Based on quantum chemistry calculations and reasonable molecular design strategies, a new NIR fluorophore was developed and characterized by simple synthesis, easy structural modification, and a large Stokes shift (105 nm). Furthermore, two new "activatable" fluorescent probes QN-Cys and QN-DNP were synthesized using a simple structural modification. The probe QN-Cys can recognize Cys with high sensitivity (LOD = 128 nM) and high selectivity, and its fluorescence intensity has a good linear relationship with the Cys concentration in the range of 5-35 μM. Furthermore, probe QN-Cys can effectively distinguish Cys from Hcy and GSH, and was successfully applied to the detection and imaging of Cys in human serum, cells, and zebrafish. The probe QN-DNP showed a good specific and sensitive (LOD = 78 nM) fluorescence response to thiophenol, and its fluorescence intensity has a good linear relationship with the thiophenol concentration in the range of 5-30 μM. Furthermore, it was successfully applied to detect thiophenol in real water samples with good recoveries (97-102%), and image thiophenol in living cells, zebrafish and mice. Notebly, the QN-DNP probe could be applied to visualize the distribution of thiophenol in the mice.

Abstract
The metal cations, Al3+ and Mg2+, could affect human health and cell biological processes. Their fast and selective detection using one probe remains a challenge. A novel fluorescence probe, N'-((1-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl)methylene)isoquinoline-3-carbohydrazide (NHMI), was developed for selectively monitoring Al3+ and Mg2+. The probe NHMI showed a distinctive "turn-on" fluorescence signal towards Al3+ and Mg2+ (cyan for Al3+ with 2556-folds enhancement and yellow for Mg2+ with 88-folds enhancement), which is quite distinct from other metal cations and allows for naked-eye detection. This interesting response was attributed to the influence of PET, ESIPT process and CHEF effect, when Al3+ or Mg2+ chelated with NHMI. Furthermore, the fluorescence titration experiments manifested that the detection limit of probe NHMI for Al3+/Mg2+ was as low as 1.20 × 10-8 M and 7.69 × 10-8 M, respectively. The formed complexes NHMI-Al3+ and NHMI-Mg2+ were analyzed by Job's plot, ESI-MS, 1H NMR and FT-IR. The coordination pockets and fluorescence mechanisms of two metal complexes were explored by density functional theory calculation. Moreover, NHMI showed low cytotoxicity and good cell permeability. Fluorescence bioimaging of Al3+/Mg2+ in MCF-7 cells with NHMI indicated its potential application in biological diagnostic analysis.
