PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 318:124520. [PMID: 38796894 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2024.124520] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Molecular imprinting is one of the most frequently occurring post-modification in the preparation of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) to enhance selectivity and specificity. In this study, we prepared a 2D layer structure of methoxy-conjugated COFs with the modification of azide (4-azido-L-phenylalanine), named [4-ALP]0.17-COFs, which exhibited a large specific surface area of 827.6 m2/g, good stability of water, polar solvents, chemistry, and thermodynamics. Fluorescent COF nanosheets ([4-ALP]0.17-CONs) obtained by liquid-assisted ultrasonic stripping have excellent blue luminescence properties and ultra-high absolute fluorescence quantum yield of 33.34 %. The modifiable functional groups in the surface of [4-ALP]0.17-CONs interacted with the targets and functional monomers of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) through hydrogen bonding interactions, to form the 3D holes with recognition sites. The quantitative detection of pyrraline (PRL) could be achieved in the concentration range of 0.05-4 μg/L with the LOD was 34.81 ng/L. The spiked recovery of PRL in meat products was 88.01-106.00 %. The [4-ALP]0.17-CONs@MIPs sensing system showed excellent stability, reliability, reusability, and practicability, promising its potential for targeted monitoring of trace molecules in real matrices.

Abstract
Tryptamine is a biogenic amine that affects organoleptic quality through the generation of off-odours in foods. Herein, imine-based covalent organic frameworks (COFs) were synthesized via Schiff base reactions and postmodified with click chemistry to generate azide-functionalized COFs with tunable azide units on the walls. The combination of molecular imprinting with COFs enabled the specific recognition of the targets. The resulting optosensing system (azide-functionalized COFs@MIPs) was used as a sample-to-answer analyser for detecting tryptamine (detection time within 10 min). A linear relationship was observed for the fluorescence response to tryptamine concentrations in the range of 3-120 μg L-1, with a limit of detection of 1.74 μg L-1. The recoveries for spiked samples were satisfactory, with relative standard deviations <9.90%. The optosensing system is a potential tool for the quantitative detection of tryptamine in meat products because of its lower cost, shorter processing time, and simpler processing steps compared to conventional chromatographic techniques.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes have revolutionized biological imaging by enabling the real-time visualization of cellular processes under physiological conditions. However, their size and potential perturbative nature can pose challenges in retaining the integrity of biological functions. This manuscript highlights recent advancements in the development of small fluorescent probes for optical imaging studies. Single benzene-based fluorophores offer versatility with minimal disruption, exhibiting diverse properties like aggregation-induced emission and pH responsiveness. Fluorescent nucleobases enable precise labeling of nucleic acids without compromising function, offering high sensitivity and compatibility with biochemistry studies. Bright yet small fluorescent amino acids provide an interesting alternative to bulky fusion proteins, facilitating non-invasive imaging of cellular events with high precision. These miniaturized fluorophores promise enhanced capabilities for studying biological systems in a non-invasive manner, fostering further innovations in molecular imaging.

Abstract
meta-Fluorophores (MFs) are unique ultra-light (in terms of molecular weight (MW)) fluorophores exhibiting luminescence with a wide colour gamut ranging from blue to the NIR. Single benzenic MFs are easy to synthesize, are quite bright (with photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) as high as 63%) and exhibit very large Stokes shift (as high as 260 nm (8965 cm-1)), with large solvatochromic shift (as high as 175 nm), and very long excited-state-lifetime (as high as 26 ns) for such ultra-light fluorophores. An emission maximum of ≥600 nm has been achieved with an MF in a polar medium having a MW of only 177 g mol-1 and in a nonpolar medium having MW of only 255 g mol-1; therefore, a large-sized π-conjugated para-fluorophore is no longer a prerequisite for red/NIR emission. Structurally varied MFs pave the way for creating an ocean of opportunities and are thus promising for replacing para-fluorophores for different applications, ranging from bioimaging to LEDs.

Abstract
Operation of temperature sensors over extended temperature ranges, and particularly in extreme conditions, poses challenges with both the mechanical integrity of the sensing material and the operational range of the sensor. With an emissive bendable organic crystalline material, here we propose that organic crystals can be used as mechanically robust and compliant fluorescence-based thermal sensors with wide range of temperature coverage and complete retention of mechanical elasticity. The exemplary material described remains elastically bendable and shows highly linear correlation with the emission wavelength and intensity between 77 K to 277 K, while it also transduces its own fluorescence in active waveguiding mode. This universal new approach expands the materials available for optical thermal sensing to a vast number of organic crystals as a new class of engineering materials and opens opportunities for the design of lightweight, organic fluorescence-based thermal sensors that can operate under extreme temperature conditions such as are the ones that will be encountered in future space exploration missions. A mechanically compliant and robust sensing material is essential for accurate and reliable thermal sensing. Here, the authors report the use of elastic organic crystals as fluorescence-based thermal sensors that cover a wide range of temperatures with complete retention of the sensor’s elasticity.

Abstract
Organic crystals are emerging as mechanically compliant, light-weight and chemically versatile alternatives to the commonly used silica and polymer waveguides. However, the previously reported organic crystals were shown to be able to transmit visible light, whereas actual implementation in telecommunication devices requires transparency in the near-infrared spectral range. Here we demonstrate that single crystals of the amino acid L-threonine could be used as optical waveguides and filters with high mechanical and thermal robustness for transduction of signals in the telecommunications range.

First-principles density functional theory calculations, used in conjunction with analysis of the energy frameworks to correlate the structure with the anisotropy in the Young’s modulus, showed that the high stiffness arises as a consequence of the strong charge-assisted hydrogen bonds between the zwitterions. The crystals have low optical loss in the O, E, S and C bands of the spectrum (1250−1600 nm), while they effectively block infrared light below 1200 nm. This property favors these and possibly other related organic crystals as all-organic fiber-optic waveguides and filters for transduction of information. Fiber-optics based on organic crystals could have potential for unique telecommunications applications but typically transmit visible wavelengths. Here the authors present mechanically robust organic crystals with favourable optical properties across the main telecommunication bands in the near-infrared.

Abstract
This article takes a look back over our research on the development of organic fluorophores that efficiently emit light in the solid state and precious-metal-free phosphors that emit light at room temperature. In particular, we place an emphasis on the prehistory of each project and the relationship between the established molecular designs. Our story starts from the serendipitous discovery of a luminophore with a single benzene core and follows the molecular design and characterization of 2,5-dipiperidyl-1,4-bis(acceptor-substituted ethenyl)benzenes that exhibit solid-state fluorescence with high-to-excellent quantum yields in the blue-to-red region. In addition, the design concepts, luminescence characteristics, and applications of eight novel classes of fluorophores are described, and the discovery, design, and luminescent properties of precious-metal-free compounds that show efficient room-temperature phosphorescence are presented.

Abstract
Fluorescence-based materials and associated techniques (analytical, imaging, and sensing techniques) have been highlighted over the last century throughout various basic research fields and industries. Organic molecule-based fluorophores, in particular, have ushered in a new era in biology and materials science. To date, hundreds of organic fluorophores have been developed, and many studies have introduced new rationales for the fluorophore design and the analysis of the relationship between its structure and photophysical properties both in the solution- and solid-state. In this review, we summarize the recent advances (mainly from 2015 to 2020) in single-benzene-based fluorophores (SBBFs), which have an electron-donor (D)-acceptor (A) type dipolar structure within a compact benzene backbone. We also present a systematic outline of the physicochemical properties of SBBFs and representative examples of their applications, which will provide useful context for the development of new SBBF derivatives in fluorophore-related materials science fields.

Abstract
Organic semiconductor micro/nanocrystals (OSMCs) have attracted great attention due to their numerous advantages such us free grain boundaries, minimal defects and traps, molecular diversity, low cost, flexibility and solution processability. Due to all these characteristics, they are strong candidates for the next generation of electronic and optoelectronic devices. In this review, we present a comprehensive overview of these OSMCs, discussing molecular packing, the methods to control crystallization and their applications to the area of organic solid-state lasers. Special emphasis is given to OSMC lasers which self-assemble into geometrically defined optical resonators owing to their attractive prospects for tuning/control of light emission properties through geometrical resonator design. The most recent developments together with novel strategies for light emission tuning and effective light extraction are presented.

Abstract
It is generally believed that organic single crystals composed of a densely packed arrangement of anisotropic, organic small molecules are less useful as functional materials due to their mechanically inflexible and brittle nature, compared to polymers bearing flexible chains and thereby exhibiting viscoelasticity. Nevertheless, organic crystals have attracted much attention because of their tunable optoelectronic properties and a variety of elegant crystal habits and unique ordered or disordered molecular packings arising from the anisotropic molecular structures. However, the recent emergence of flexible organic crystal materials showing plasticity and elasticity has considerably changed the concept of organic single crystals. In this review, the author summarizes the state-of-the-art development of flexible organic crystal materials, especially functional elastic organic crystals which are expected to provide a foothold for the next generation of organic crystal materials.
