Abstract
A novel coumarin-based fluorescent sensor CHE, incorporating 2-hydrazinylbenzothiazole and coumarin aldehyde, has been developed that demonstrated a preferential detection of Hg2+ and Ag+ in presence of interferences. Compared to previously prevalent intensity-based fluorescent probes, CHE exhibited a ratiometric fluorescence response to Hg2+ and Ag+, and further accurately differentiated Hg2+ and Ag + using the differential extractive ability of EDTA when interacting with ion-CHE complexes. Sensing mechanism was investigated and elucidated. The chemosensor CHE was successfully applied to detect Hg2+ and Ag+ in six distinct samples with satisfactory results. Additionally, combinatorial logic circuits were constructed utilizing three distinct logic gates (NOT, OR, and INH) based on the sensor's differential output signals in response to Hg2+/Ag+ and other cations. Interestingly, utilizing the reversible and reproducible switching behavior of the EDTA interaction with Hg2+, a conceptual 'Write-Read-Erase-Read' memory function with multi-write capability was proposed, offering a novel perspective for molecular-based memory systems.

Abstract
In the current work, we studied the sensing process of the sensor (E)-2-((quinolin-8ylimino) methyl) phenol (QP) for fluoride anion (F-) with a "turn on" fluorescent response by density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations. The proton transfer process and the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) process of QP have been explored by using potential energy curves as functions of the distance of N-H and dihedral angle C-N=C-C both in the ground and the excited states. According to the calculated results, the fluorescence quenching mechanism of QP and the fluorescent response for F- have been fully explored. These results indicate that the current calculations completely reproduce the experimental results and provide compelling evidence for the sensing mechanism of QP for F-.

Abstract
We herein report two salicyaldehyde-quinoxaline (HQS and HQSN) conjugates and a benzaldehyde-quinoxaline (QBN) conjugate to fabricate selective chemosensors for F- and Hg2+ in the micromolar range. This work demonstrates how sensing outcomes are affected by modulating proton acidity by introducing an electron donating group, -NEt2 , in the probe backbone. Interestingly, the un-substituted probe HQS can selectively detect F- , whereas HQSN and QBN are selective for Hg2+ . In order to gain insights into the mechanism of sensing, geometry optimizations have been carried out on QS(-1) , QS(-1) ⋅⋅⋅HF, QSN(-1) and QSN(-1) ⋅⋅⋅HF and the experimental data are validated in terms of free energy and pKa values. Detailed DFT and TD-DFT analyses provide ample support towards the mechanism of sensing of the analytes.

Abstract
The effects of substituent on excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) and hydrogen bonding of N-(8-Quinolyl) salicylaldimine (QS) have been studied by theoretical calculation with DFT and TDDFT. The representative electron-withdrawing nitryl and electron-donating methoxyl were selected to analyze the effects on geometries, intramolecular hydrogen bond interaction, absorption/fluorescence spectra, and the ESIPT process. The configurations of the three molecules (QS, QS-OMe and QS-NO2) were optimized in the ground and excited states. The structure parameters, infrared spectra, hydrogen bond interactions, frontier molecular orbitals, absorption/fluorescence spectra, and potential curves have cross-validated the current results. The results show that the introduction of substituent results in a bathochromic-shift of the absorption and fluorescence spectra with large Stokes shift, and is more beneficial to the ESIPT process. The current work will be beneficial to the improvement of ESIPT properties and deepen understanding of the mechanism of ESIPT process.

Abstract
In the field of fluorescence sensing for metal ions, coordination between the sensor and the analyte is always observed. The formations of organometallic compounds generally induce significant changes to the fluorescence spectra. However, the underlying detecting mechanism always remains uncovered. From the view point of orbital interaction between Hg2+ and a newly designed sensor P, the fluorescence quenching detection mechanism of P is comprehensively investigated. The whole photophysical process of the organometallic compound formed by P and Hg2+ is fully analyzed. Strong orbital coupling between the sensor P and Hg2+ is observed, which opens up two non-emissive channels, namely, the intramolecular electron transfer and intersystem crossing. The co-effect of the two channels induced high degree of fluorescence quenching, which makes P a good candidate in the fabricating of Hg2+ sensor. This mechanism is insightful and intrinsically different from the previously proposed mechanism, which would help to understand the photophysics of the organometallic compounds and provide a piece of guidance for the design of Hg2+ sensors.

Abstract
A colorimetric and fluorescent dual-channel fluoride chemosensor N,N'-bis (4-diethylaminosalicylidene) hydrazine (sensor S) bearing two imine groups has been designed and synthesized. This structurally simple probe displays rapid response and high selectivity for fluoride over other common anions (Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), AcO(-), H2PO4(-), HSO4(-), ClO4(-), CN(-) and SCN(-)) in a highly polar aqueous DMSO solution. Mechanism studies suggested that the sensor firstly combined with F(-) through hydrogen bonds and then experienced the deprotonation process at higher concentrations of F(-) anion to the two Ar-OH groups. The detection limit was 5.78×10(-7)M of F(-), which points to the high detection sensitivity. Test strips based on sensor S were fabricated, which could act as a convenient and efficient F(-) test kit to detect F(-) for "in-the-field" measurement.

Abstract
A novel fluorescence sensor (BIP) bearing NH and OH subunits displayed a highly selective and sensitive recognition property for fluoride over other anions. Fluoride-driven ESPT, poorly used in anion recognition and sensing, was suggested to be responsible for the fluorescence enhancement with a blue shift of 35 nm in the emission spectrum.
