JOURNAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS 2024; 475:134914. [PMID: 38885588 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134914] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2024] [Revised: 06/03/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
Due to the highly toxic nature of mercury ions to living organisms, accurately detecting Hg2+ in water samples and biological systems is of great significance. In this study, we designed and synthesized a novel red-to-near-infrared Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) fluorescent probe (named as DS) based Fluorene derivatives on specifically for Hg2+ detection. Probe DS can visually identify Hg2+ through an red-to-near-infrared fluorescence enhancement change, characterized by a large Stokes shift (130 nm) and AIE feature. This probe offers a fast response, high selectivity and sensitivity. The Hg2+-induced deprotection reaction of the thioketal mechanism was thoroughly investigated using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), mass spectrometry (MS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Additionly, dynamic light scattering (DLS) results indicated that the aggregation states changes of the molecular play a crucial role in the AIE fluorescence response of probe DS toward Hg2+. The red-to-near-infrared response with AIE feature not only avoids the interference of auto-fluorescence signals in complex environments, but also reduces the fluorescence quenching caused by probe molecular aggregation. This makes probe DS highly suitable for high-quality imaging detection of Hg2+ in aqueous environments. Furthermore, probe DS demonstrates the capability for visual fluorescence detection of Hg2+ concentrations in water sample, plant roots and living cells.

Abstract
The development of luminescent molecular materials has advanced rapidly in recent decades, primarily driven by the synthesis of novel emissive compounds and a deeper understanding of excited-state mechanisms. Herein, we report a streamlined synthetic approach to light-emitting diazapolyoxa- and polyazamacrocycles N2CnOxQ and NyCnQ (n = 3-10; x = 2, 3; y = 2-5), incorporating a 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline residue (DPQ). This synthetic strategy based on macrocyclization through Pd-catalyzed amination reaction yields the target macrocycles in good or high yields (46-92%), enabling precise control over their structural parameters. A key role of the PhPF-tBu ligand belonging to the JosiPhos series in this macrocyclization was elucidated through DFT computation. This macrocyclization reaction eliminates the need for complex protecting-deprotecting procedures of secondary amine groups, offering a convenient and scalable method for the preparation of target compounds. Moreover, it boasts a potentially broad substrate scope, making it promising for structure-properties studies within photophysics, sensor development, and material synthesis. Photophysical properties of representative macrocycles were investigated, employing spectroscopic techniques and DFT computation. It was demonstrated that DPQ-containing macrocycles display aggregation-induced emission in a DCM-hexane solvent mixture despite the presence of flexible tethers within their structures. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of a representative compound N2C8O3Q allowed us to gain deeper insight into its molecular structure and AIE behaviour. The emissive aggregates of the N2C10O3Q macrocycle were immobilized on filter paper yielding AIE-exhibiting test strips for measuring acidity in vapors and in aqueous media.

Abstract
Artificial aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) have flourished in bio-applications with the development of synthetic chemistry, which however are plagued by issues like singularity in structures and non-renewability. The unique structures and renewability of biomass moieties can compensate for these drawbacks, but their properties are hard to design and regulate due to their confined structures. Therefore, it appears to be a reasonable approach to derive AIEgens from abundant biomass (BioAIEgens), integrating the bilateral advantages of both synthetic and natural AIEgens. In this work, the blue-violet emissive coumarin with its lactone structure serving as a rare natural acceptor, is utilized to construct donor-π-acceptor typed BioAIE isomers incorporating the propeller-like and electron-donating triphenylamine (TPA) unit. The results show that Cm-p-TPA undergoes charge transfer with its keto form, emitting red light at 600 nm, which can be applied to monitor Cu2+ concentration during mitophagy using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy because of the excellent biocompatibility, photostability, and specific recognition to Cu2+ . This work not only demonstrates the feasibility of utilizing positional isomerization to modulate excited-state evolutions and resultant optical properties, but also provides evidence for the rationality of constructing biologically-active BioAIEgens via a biomass-derivatization concept.

Abstract
Invading mercury would cause many serious health hazards such as kidney damage, genetic freak, and nerve injury to human body. Thus, developing highly efficient and convenient mercury detection methods is of great significance for environmental governance and protection of public health. Motivated by this problem, various testing technologies for detecting trace mercury in the environment, food, medicines or daily chemicals have been developed. Among them, the fluorescence sensing technology is a sensitive and efficient detection method for detecting Hg2+ ions due to its simple operation, rapid response and economic value. This review aims to discuss the recent advances in fluorescent materials for Hg2+ ion detection. We reviewed the Hg2+ sensing materials and divided them into seven categories according to the sensing mechanism: static quenching, photoinduced electron transfer, intramolecular charge transfer, aggregation-induced emission, metallophilic interaction, mercury-induced reactions and ligand-to-metal energy transfer. The challenges and prospects of fluorescent Hg2+ ion probes are briefly presented. We hope that this review can provide some new insights and guidance for the design and development of novel fluorescent Hg2+ ion probes to promote their applications.

Abstract
The design of new aggregation-induced emission luminogens (AIEgens) has aroused continuous attention. The relationship between structure and performance plays an important role in guiding such efforts. In this contribution, two R-D-A- and R-D-π-A-type AIEgens were facilely designed and synthesized, that is, DPE-PTZ-CN and DPE-PTZ-PCN, with diphenylethylene as the twisted rotor structure (R), phenothiazine as electron-donor (D), and the (aryl) cyano group as electron-acceptor (A) fragments. Both luminophores were endowed with typical AIE properties, while their αAIE (PL intensity ratio of AIEgen in a mixed solution with water fraction (fw) = 90 vol % to that with fw = 0) were quite different. The αAIE for DPE-PTZ-CN was as high as 41, but it was only 3 for DPE-PTZ-PCN, in which the π-bridge (aryl linker) was introduced between its D and A groups. In addition, the push-pull electronic effect endowed both molecules with the feature of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). The solvatochromism effect observed in solutions with different polarities confirmed the existence of the ICT process. The theoretical calculation and single crystal structure analysis revealed that the electronic structure and molecular conformation characteristics had a decisive influence on the differences in photophysical behaviors.
