Abstract
Peptide-fluorophore conjugates (PFCs) have been expeditiously utilized for metal ion recognition owing to their distinctive characteristics. Selective detection and quantification of aluminum is essential to minimize health and environmental risks. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a new chemoprobe with aggregation-induced emission characteristics by chemically conjugating rhodamine-B fluorophore with a tripeptide. The probe revealed β-sheet secondary conformation in both solid and solution states, as confirmed by FT-IR, PXRD, and CD experiments. AIE characteristics of the probe in water-MeCN mixtures revealed the formation of spherically shaped nanoaggregates with an average size of 353 ± 7 nm, as confirmed by SEM, TEM, and DLS studies. The probe exhibited a large stokes shift (175 nm) and displayed selective colorimetric and fluorometric responses towards Al3+ ions with an extremely low detection limit (51 nm) and a fast response time (≤15 s). Comparative NMR studies confirmed the cleavage of spirolactam ring upon aluminum binding. The probe's practicality was enhanced through integration into test strips and thin films, allowing solid-phase detection of Al3+ ions. Furthermore, an RGB-Arduino enabled optosensing device has been developed to enable instant quantifiable analysis of aluminum concentrations in real-time conditions.

Abstract
Three rhodamine 6G derivatives (REHA, RETA and REDA) were designed and synthesized by connecting rhodamine 6G and 3-methyl-2-thiophenal with hydrazine hydrate, ethylenediamine and diethylenetriamine, respectively. In CH3CN/H2O (50/50, v/v), the absorbance of REHA, RETA and REDA at 528 nm was suddenly enhanced by 3.2, 3.8 and 7.2 times within the pH range of 3.03-2.31, 3.05-2.32 and 3.06-2.34, respectively, and the solution changed from colorless to pink. Meanwhile, the maximal fluorescence intensity sharply increased by 53.9, 26.6 and 24.9 times in the pH range of 3.86-3.46, 3.88-3.47 and 3.89-3.48, respectively, and the solution changed from dark to bright yellow-green fluorescence. REHA, RETA and REDA can act as highly selective and sensitive colorimetric and fluorescent pH switches with good recyclability and anti-interference ability. The response mechanism of REHA, RETA and REDA to pH was studied by 1H NMR spectroscopy, and their application in indicating small pH changes in dyeing wastewater was investigated.

Abstract
A novel thiadiazole functionalized schiff base chemoreceptor (E)-2,4-dichloro-6-(((5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)imino)methyl)phenol (SB-1) has been synthesized and characterized spectroscopically by using various techniques. Its photophysical behaviour was scanned towards a variety of metal ions in mixed aqueous media. The chemosensor (SB-1) displayed excellent selectivity towards Cu2+ ion through fluorescent diminishment (turn-off phenomenon). Colorimetric analyses showed a rapid colour change from yellow to dark red under visible light upon addition of Cu2+ ions. Interestingly, the original yellow colour reappeared back instantly after the addition of EDTA2- anions, thus confirming the reversible nature of SB-1. Competitive experiments validated no interference from the other co-existing metal ions in the recognition process of SB-1 towards Cu2+ ion. Job's plot confirmed 1:1 binding stoichiometry between SB-1 and Cu2+ ion with the binding constant value of 3.87 × 104 M- 1. The limit of detection was determined to be 1.01 × 10- 7 M suggesting good sensitivity of SB-1 towards Cu2+ ions. Furthermore, pH-dependent UV-Vis spectral behaviour of SB-1 confirmed that it could act as an effective optical pH-sensor for highly acidic environment as well. Portable nature of probe SB-1 was explored by fabricating "easy-to-use" paper test strips, which allow robust and rapid detection of Cu2+ ions. Based on the multi-responsive properties of SB-1, a 'NOR' logic gate was constructed by applying Cu2+ and EDTA2- as chemical inputs (ln1: Cu2+, ln2: EDTA2-) while emission intensity observed at 560 nm was considered as output signal (O1). DFT optimized geometries confirmed that chemosensor SB-1 exists in Azo form (Enol form) in its ground state. Molecular docking of the SB-1 and its copper complex, into the binding site of TRK protein tyrosine kinase (PDB: 1t46) was also carried out to explore their biological activity and their potential use as TRK inhibitors.

Abstract
A spectroscopic probe CMBT was synthesized and characterized. CMBT showed the specific recognition for HClO based on the turn-on blue fluorescence and naked-eye change from pink to colorless. NMR, IR, HRMS-ESI, and spectral analysis suggested that colorimetric and fluorescent change of CMBT to HClO originated from the conversion of CMBT to starting material coumarin-aldehyde 1 caused by the oxidization of HClO, which was responsible for the fluorescence recovery. The detection limit was calculated to be 1.61 μM and 6.58 μM for fluorescence and UV-vis analysis with a range up to 1 mM. HClO's fluorescence detection was successfully achieved in tap and river water samples. The prepared convenient paper test strips showed a distinct color change in varying concentrations of HClO. A multi-input molecular logic circuit was constructed.

Abstract
Previously reported fluorescent sensors for Th4+ experienced emission quenching or generated false positive signal upon aggregate formation in aqueous media. Herein, a simple and novel thorium sensor (CDB-BA) based on cyanodistyrene structure was designed and synthesized, which integrated the highly emitting characteristic of AIE effect and off-on response of PET modulation for the first time to construct the "turn-on" fluorescent probe for Th4+. Besides excellent selectivity, CDB-BA exhibited remarkable fluorescent enhancement which was linearly related to the concentration of Th4+ in the range of 0.25-8 μM. The detection limit was attained 0.074 μM, which was lower than that of most previously reported sensors. The mechanism of tris-chelate complex of CDB-BA with Th4+ was confirmed by mass spectra, IR spectra and DFT calculation. The excellent Th4+ sensing ability of CDB-BA was successfully applied to detecting Th4+ on TLC plates, in real water samples and living-cell imaging. This work suggested that the combination of AIE and PET photophysical mechanism could offer the merits of minimized background and enhanced signal fidelity to develop novel "turn-on" fluorescent probe in complicated aqueous environment and biological research.

Abstract
The ongoing poisoning of agricultural products has pushed the security problem to become an important issue. Among them, exceeding the standard rate of pesticide residues is the main factor influencing the quality and security of agricultural products. Monitoring pesticide residues and developing simple, yet ultrasensitive detection systems for pesticide residues are urgently needed. In this study, we successfully developed a novel rhodamine derivative as fluorescent and colorimetric chemosensor R-G for the rapid, selective and ultrasensitive detection of glyphosate pesticide residue in aqueous solution. Through a Cu2+-indicator displacement strategy, glyphosate can displace an indicator (R-G) from a Cu2+-indicator complex due to its strong affinity to bind with Cu2+ to give a turn-on fluorescence and distinct color change. Moreover, a test strip was also fabricated to achieve a facile detection of glyphosate pesticide. To demonstrate the possibility of practical applications, glyphosate was detected on the surface of cabbage and in a spiked soil sample. The detection limit of 4.1 nM and the response time of 2 min indicate that the method is enough sensitive and rapid to detect the glyphosate residue at or below levels that pose a health risk.

Abstract
Many precedents prove that fluorescent probes are promising candidates for detection of metal ions in the environment and biological systems. Herein, two novel photoinduced electron transfer (PET)-based fluorescent probes, CH 3 -R6G and CN-R6G, were rationally synthesized by incorporating a triazolyl benzaldehyde moiety into the rhodamine 6G fluorophore. The optical properties of these probes were studied using an ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectrophotometer and a fluorescence spectrophotometer. Through the analysis of the test results, it is concluded that the selectivity and sensitivity of these two probes to Hg2+ are better than to other metal ions (Ag+, Al3+, Ba2+, Cd2+, Co3+, Cu2+, Cr3+, Fe3+, Ga2+, K+, Mg2+, Na+, Ni2+, Pb2+, and Zn2+). According to the standard curve diagram, the detection limits of CH 3 -R6G and CN-R6G were determined to be 1.34 × 10-8 and 1.56 × 10-8 M, respectively. Reaction of the probes with Hg2+ resulted in a color change of the solution from colorless to pink. The corresponding molecular geometric configuration, orbital electron distribution, and orbital energy of these two compounds were predicted by density functional theory (DFT). The two probes CH 3 -R6G and CN-R6G have been successfully used for imaging Hg2+ in live breast cancer cells, thereby indicating their great potential for the micro-detection of Hg2+ in vivo.

Abstract
Traditional analytical methods of thorium contamination suffer from several disadvantages such as time-consuming procedures and an equipment-intensive nature, leading to substantial challenges in rapid and on-site monitoring of thorium concentrations in complex natural water systems. We report here the first case of a luminescent metal organic framework based probe (ThP-1) for highly sensitive and selective self-calibrated sensing of Th4+ contamination in natural fresh water media with a notably facilitated detection procedure. The detection limit of ThP-1 was determined to be 24.2 μg/L, much lower than the thorium contamination standard of 246 μg/L in drinking water defined by the World Health Organization. Importantly, the detection procedure based on the rarely reported self-calibration manner is greatly beneficial in improving the detection accuracy. The self-calibrated luminescence evolution process shows a great anti-interference ability capable of detecting thorium contamination in a wide concentration range from 24.2 μg/L to 300 mg/L, which can not be achieved directly by the traditional methods. The Th4+-selective luminescence response originates from the selective uptake and efficient enrichment of Th4+ by the host framework of ThP-1 through inner-sphere coordination, which is further confirmed by batch experiments, X-ray absorption spectroscopic study, and DFT calculations.

Abstract
A simple pH fluorescent probe, N-(6-morpholino-1, 3-dioxo-1H-benzo[de]isoquinolin-2(3H)-yl) isonicotinamide (NDI), based on naphthalimide as the fluorophore and isonicotinic acid hydrazide as the reaction site was synthesized and characterized. It is useful for monitoring acidic and alkaline pH. The results of pH titration indicated that NDI exhibits obvious emission enhancement with a pKa of 4.50 and linear response to small pH fluctuations within the acidic range of 3.00–6.50. Interestingly, NDI also displayed strong pH-dependent characteristics with pKa 9.34 and linearly responded to an alkaline range of 8.30–10.50. The sensing response mechanism was confirmed by 1H NMR and ESI-MS spectroscopy. The mechanism of the optical responses of NDI toward pH was also determined by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In addition, NDI displayed a highly selective and sensitive response to hydrogen ions and hydroxyl ions. The probe was successfully applied to image acidic and alkaline pH value fluctuations in HeLa cells and has lysosomal targeting ability. When the probe was in the protonation process, the fluorescence intensity gradually decreased, whereas when the probe was in the deprotonation process, the fluorescence intensity gradually increased.![]()
