Abstract
Zinc(II) ions (Zn2g) play crucial roles in the growth, propagation, and metabolism of animals, plants, and humans. Abnormal concentrations of Zn2+ in the environment and living organisms pose potential risks to environmental protection and human health. Therefore, it is imperative to develop rapid, reliable and in-situ detection methods for Zn2+ in both environmental and biological contexts. Furthermore, effective analytical methods are required for diagnosing diseases and understanding physiological metabolic mechanisms associated with Zn2+ concentration levels. Organic small-molecule fluorescent probes offer advantages such as fast, reliable, convenient, non-destructive detection capabilities and have significant application potential in Zn2+ detection and bioimaging; thus garnering extensive attention. Over the past two years alone, various organic small-molecule probes for Zn2+ based on different detection mechanisms and fluorophores have been rapidly developed. However, these probes still exhibit several limitations that need further resolution. In light of this context, we provide a comprehensive summary of the detection mechanisms, performance characteristics, and application scope of Zn2+ fluorescence probes since year 2022 while highlighting their advantages. We also propose solutions to address existing issues with these probes and outline future directions for their advancement. This review aims to serve as a valuable reference source offering insights into the development of advanced organic small-molecule-based fluorescence probes specifically designed for detecting Zn2+.

Pyridine appended pyrimidine bis hydrazone: Zn 2+/ATP detection, bioimaging and functional properties of its dinuclear Zn(II) complex. Talanta 2024; 273:125900. [PMID: 38490021 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.125900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2023] [Revised: 03/06/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024]
Abstract
A pyridine functionalized pyrimidine-based system, H2P was successfully synthesized, characterized, and evaluated for its remarkable selective characteristics towards Zn2+ and ATP ions. The chemical sensing capabilities of H2P were demonstrated through absorption, fluorescence, and NMR spectroscopic techniques. The probe exhibited outstanding sensitivity when interacting with the ions, demonstrating relatively strong association constants and impressively low detection limits. The comprehensive binding mechanism of H2P with respect to Zn2+ and ATP ions was investigated using a combination of analytical methods, including Job's plot, NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and density functional theory (DFT) experiments. The interesting sensing ability of H2P for Zn2+/ATP ions was harnessed for live cell bioimaging and other diverse on-site detection purposes, including paper strips, cotton swabs, and applications involving mung bean sprouts. Further, the fluorescent probe demonstrated its effectiveness in detecting Zn2+ and ATP within live cells, indicating its significant potential in the realm of biological imaging applications. Moreover, the molecular configuration of the zinc complex (H2P-Zn2Cl4), derived from H2P, was elucidated using X-ray crystallography. This complex exhibited intriguing multifunctional attributes, encompassing its capability for detecting picric acid and for reversible acid/base sensing responses. The enhanced conducting behavior of the complex as well as its resistance properties were investigated by performing I-V characteristics and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic (EIS) experiments respectively.

Abstract
A C2 symmetric L-phenylalanine-derived pseudopeptide has been synthesized for selective and sensitive recognition of Zn(II) ions in aqueous-organic media. The pseudopeptidic probes exhibit intracellular Zn(II) ion-sensing capabilities as demonstrated via live-cell fluorescence studies on RAW264.7 cells. Hence, we present a bioinspired pseudopeptide for potential biological applications involving intracellular Zn(II) ion detection.
