Abstract
There are several metal ions that are vital for the growth of the environmental field as well as for the biological field but only up to the maximum limit. If they are present in excess, it could be hazardous for the human health. With the growing technology, a series of various detection techniques are employed in order to recognize those metal ions, some of them include voltammetry, electrochemical methods, inductively couples, etc. However, these techniques are expensive, time consuming, requires large storage, advanced instrumentation, and a skilled person to operate. So, here comes the need of a sensor and it is defined as a miniature device which detects the substance of interest by giving response in the form of energy change. So, from past few decades, many sensors have been formulated for detecting metal ions with some basic characteristics like selectivity, specificity, sensitivity, high accuracy, lower detection limit, and response time. Detecting various metal ions by employing chemosensors involves different techniques such as fluorescence, phosphorescence, chemiluminescence, electrochemical, and colorimetry. The fluorescence technique has certain advantages over the other techniques. This review mainly focuses on the chemosensors that show a signal in the form of fluorescence to detect Al+3, Zn+2, Cu+2, and Fe+3 ions.

Abstract
We constructed a novel-binding site for metal ion detection using a fused tetrazole ring conjugated with aminopyrene (R). The designed structure of the molecule was successfully synthesized and determined the probe's selectivity by testing various metal ions and found that the probe effectively detects Al3+ ion visually. Checked the sensing ability of the probe with different approaches (fluorimetric and colorimetric), and the effectiveness is double confirmed. The added Al3+ ion to R procured a rapid change in color from yellowish orange to colorless. Under the UV lamp, a turn-on blue fluorescence was observed after adding aluminium ion, whereas the probe was non-fluorescent before detecting aluminium ion. The probable interface of the probe with aluminium ion has also been expected from HRMS spectral analysis results. The probe's utility in real-time monitoring of Al3+ ion in water is confirmed by a simple test kit prepared using filter paper. The kit showed a possible naked-eye detection with a notable color change, and when checked, the aluminium ion detected test kit under a UV lamp showed blue fluorescence.

Abstract
The pressing need to develop a specific analytical sensor that can identify and quantify Fe(II) without a cytotoxic response was the major motivation drive in this work. The turn-on fluorescent sensor here described can successfully detect Fe(II) and discriminate this ion from other analytes that commonly act as interferents in biological media. Moreover, this reduced fluoresceinamine-based sensor has a high photostability and high dissociation constant, which is an indication that the complex obtained between reduced fluoresceinamine (RFL) and Fe(II) is highly stable. This fluorescence-based sensor has a binding mechanism of 1:1 and a positive cooperativity was found between analyte and sensor. The detection, quantification and sensitivity parameters of the sensor were determined: 21.6 ± 0.1 μM; 65.6 ± 0.1 μM and 48 ± 3 (×107) μM, respectively. To evaluate a possible cytotoxicity effect an erythrocyte assay was performed and the obtained data were evaluated considering CdTe Quantum Dots (QDs) passivated with mercaptoacetic acid has experimental control. According to the resulting data RFL is not cytotoxic even when used in high concentrations, 660 mM. On the other hand QDs are quite different. Indeed it was proven that these heavy metal-based nanoparticles are responsible for 40% erytrocytes hemolysis in concentrations of 600 mM.

Abstract
A new fluorescent probe LXY based on the rhodamine 6G platforms has been designed, synthesized, and characterized, which could recognize Fe3+ effectively in HEPES buffer (10 mM, pH = 7.4)/CH3CN (2:3, v/v). And the distinct color change and the rapid emergence of fluorescence emission at 550 nm achieved "naked eye" detection of Fe3+. The interaction mode between them was achieved by Job's plot, MS, SEM, and X-ray single-crystal diffraction. Importantly, the crystal structures proved that Fe3+ could induce the rhodamine moiety transform the closed-cycle form to the open-cycle form. But it is interesting that Fe3+ did not appear in the crystal structures. Meanwhile, the limit of detection (LOD) of LXY to Fe3+ was calculated to be 3.47 × 10-9. In addition, the RGB experiment, test papers, and silica gel plates all indicated that the probe LXY could be used to distinguish Fe3+ quantitatively and qualitatively on-site. Moreover, the probe LXY has also been successfully applied to Fe3+ image in Caenorhabditis elegans, adult mice, and plant tissues. Thus, LXY was considered to have some potential for application in bioimaging.

Abstract
A novel effective chemosensor HPHN, (E)-6-hydroxy-N'-((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene) picolinohydrazide, was synthesized. HPHN sensed Fe3+/2+ with the changes of color from yellow to orange without obvious inhibition from other cations. In addition, HPHN could detect ClO- by both the color change from yellow to colorless and the fluorescence quenching. The binding modes of HPHN with Fe3+/2+ and ClO- were determined to be 1:1 with Job plot and ESI-mass analysis. HPHN displayed low detection limits of 0.29 μM for Fe3+ and 0.77 μM for Fe2+. For ClO-, the detection limit was 6.20 μM by colorimetric method and 3.99 μM by fluorescent one, respectively. Moreover, HPHN can be employed to quantify Fe3+ and ClO- in environmental samples and apply to cell imaging for ClO-.

Abstract
In this study, a new hemicyanidine-based colorimetric-fluorescent probe L has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction, NMR, HRMS and other technologies. The probe L serves as a "turn-on" probe for the detection of Fe3+ and Al3+ ions in DMF-HEPES system with a high sensitivity and an excellent selectivity. The probe L manifesting the color of the solution containing L turns red on the addition of Fe3+, and turns pink on the addition of Al3+. The fluorescence turn-on detection of Fe3+ and Al3+ ions is attributed to the photo-induced electron transfer (PET) process and the exertion of the chelation-enhanced fluorescence effect (CHEF) mechanism. The results of thin layer silica gel plate coloration experiments also present the same characteristics. Additionally, we further demonstrate that the probe L exhibit good cell permeability and could be employed to monitor Fe3+ and Al3+ ions in the living cells.

Abstract
Two novel malonyl-based chemosensors, N,N'-bis(ethyl-4'-benzoate)-1,3-propanediamide (1) and N,N'-bis(ethyl-3'-benzoate)-1,3-propanediamide (2), have been synthesized and screened towards various biologically important metal ions such as Na+, Mg2+, K+, Ca2+, Al3+, Cr3+, Mn2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Ag+, Cd2+, Hg2+, Ti3+, and Pb2+. The emission spectral studies of both 1 and 2 displayed 84 - 91% turn-off emission responses selectively with Fe3+ ion in aqueous buffer (MeCN/H2O, 1:4, v/v, pH = 7.4) solution. Chemosensors 1 and 2 exhibited remarkable sensing ability towards Fe3+ ion over other metal ions with limit of detection (LOD) of 4.28 and 4.33 μM, respectively. The binding stoichiometry of 1 and 2 with Fe3+ ion was studied by Benesi-Hildebrand fitting, Stern-Volmer plot and Job's plots, revealing that both chemosensors (1 - 2) bind with Fe3+ metal ion in 1:1 stoichiometric ratio with the apparent association constant (Ka) 8.90 × 103 and 11.16 × 103 M-1, respectively. Furthermore, the interactions of chemosensors (1 - 2) with metal ion were also investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP hybrid functional using 6-31G and LanL2DZ basis sets.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2020; 233:118208. [PMID: 32146424 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2020.118208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2019] [Revised: 02/27/2020] [Accepted: 02/28/2020] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Using Hg2+-promoted deprotection reaction, we have developed a new fluorescent turn-on sensor 2TS based on bithiophene fluorophore for Hg2+ detection. The sensing mechanism of 2TS towards Hg2+ was strongly proved by 1H NMR, FTIR, HRMS, UV-vis and fluorescence spectra. Remarkly, 2TS towards Hg2+ in 100% aqueous solution shows high sensitivity with a low detection limit of 19 nM, superior selectivity and ultra-rapid response of 20 s during a wide sensing pH range from 4 to 10. Taking advantage of the excellent properties, the low-cost sensor 2TS-based filter paper/TLC test strips were fabricated for visual, immediate and quantitative detection of Hg2+ in water, proving its applicability towards sensitive in-situ and on-site detection. Meanwhile, 2TS showed high analytical performance for Hg2+ detection in water, seafood as well as human urine samples. Moreover, thanks to the good water solubility, negligible cytotoxicity, good biocompatibility and cell-membrane permeability, 2TS was further applied to effectively image Hg2+ in live cells. Furthermore, the developed sensor 2TS acted as good fluorescent display material for Hg2+ with obvious color change.

Abstract
Excessive amounts of Al3+ in the human body can cause adverse effects on immune function and induce several neurodegenerative disorders. So far, most of the reported fluorescent probes for Al3+ present some common drawbacks, such as low sensitivity and poor water solubility. In addition, a number of traditional fluorescent probes failed to image Al3+ in tumor cells due to the lack of tumor cell targeting capacity and cell penetrating abilities. To overcome these shortcomings, we constructed tumor-targeting fluorescent mixed nano-micelles (mPEG-Dye-Biotin) with an average particle size of 21 nm from an amphiphilic polymer containing a Schiff-base fluorescent unit (mPEG-Dye) and another amphiphilic polymer containing a tumor cell recognition ligand (DSPE-PEG-Biotin), through the co-self-assembly of both amphiphilic polymers in water using the film rehydration method. The as-prepared nanoprobe showed a highly sensitive and selective turn-on fluorescence response to Al3+ in aqueous solution with a low detection limit. MTT assay revealed the negligible cytotoxicity of the mPEG-Dye-Biotin nanoprobe to both HeLa cells and COS-7 cells, indicating the safety of mPEG-Dye-Biotin for biological applications. More importantly, the biotinylated nanoprobe showed better ability to enter biotin receptor-positive HeLa cells than that of the non-biotinylated micelle mPEG-Dye, which made it more suitable for imaging Al3+ in biotin receptor-positive tumor cells. This work provides a simple and general strategy to design a highly sensitive and tumor cell-specific metal ion nanoprobe, which can not only be applied in Al3+ imaging, but can also be extended to other ions or biomolecules by changing the incorporated fluorescent unit in the amphiphilic polymer.

Abstract
Herein, we designed and synthesized a luminophor, Rh-F, which is an intergrant of rhodol and 2-hydroxy benzothiazole by introducing a benzothiazole unit onto the ortho-position of the phenolic hydroxy of rhodol. Rh-F exhibited excellent fluorescence properties such as a large Stokes shift (>180 nm) and the synergistic effect of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and an excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) feature. The AIE/ESIPT mechanism was thoroughly explored using X-ray single-crystal structures and photophysical determinations. Furthermore, Rh-F showed a sensitive fluorescence response to Fe2+ with low detection limits of 115.2 nM and high selectivity. Studies of its sensing mechanism indicated that the Fe2+-induced blue-green fluorescence-quenched at 525 nm originates from an irreversible Fe2+ chelate with the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl group and the N atom of the benzothiazole moiety. This blocked the ESIPT process of Rh-F which resulted in the quenching of the fluorescence sensor for Rh-F.

Abstract
Herein, we report a simple and novel approach for the design of fluorescent chemosensor through the self-assembly of functionalized monomer molecules. According to these approach, a novel supramolecular fluorescent chemosensor (SPMS) was successfully constructed by self-assembly of a quinoline hydrazone functionalized pillar[5]arene monomer PM. Interestingly, upon the addition of CN-, the solution of SPMS instantly shows dramatic fluorescent enhancement and emitting bright blue emission. Meanwhile, the fluorescence quantum yields show distinct increase from 0.0582 of SPMS to 0.3952 of SPMS + CN-. The detection limit (LOD) of SPMS for CN- is 9.70 × 10-8 M, which indicated high sensitivity. Moreover, the SPMS is selective for CN- even in the presence of other anions, the fluorescent detection process of SPMS for CN- was not interfered by other competitive anions (F-, Cl-, Br-, I-, N3-, OH-, SCN-, HSO4-, AcO-, H2PO4- and ClO4-). Notably, in the CN- sensing process, the self-assembly structure of the supramolecular chemosensor SPMS didn't show any disassembly. This work provides a novel approach for instant detection of CN- through a self-assembled supramolecular fluorescent chemosensor in aqueous system. Moreover, the test strips based on SPMS were fabricated, which could serve as convenient and efficient CN- test kits.

Abstract
Recently, ultrasensitive stimuli-responsive materials have received extensive attention due to their high sensitivity and wide applications. Herein, we report a novel approach to design ultrasensitive responsive materials by rationally introducing the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect into supramolecular polymer gels. According to this approach, by rationally introducing self-assembly moieties and a fluorophore, the obtained gelator DNS can act as an AIEgen; it showed strong AIE after aggregating into the supramolecular polymer gel GDNS. More interestingly, because the aggregation of DNS led to amplification of the detective signal, the AIE-based supramolecular polymer gel GDNS could ultrasensitively detect the heavy metal ions Hg2+, Cu2+, and Fe3+ by a signal amplification mechanism; the lowest detection limits reached 10-11 M. In addition, the xerogel of GDNS could adsorb and separate Hg2+, Cu2+, and Fe3+ from aqueous solution with favourable adsorption properties, and the adsorption rates ranged from 94.70% to 99.37%. Furthermore, the gel GDNS could act as a convenient test kit for Hg2+, Cu2+, and Fe3+ as well as a smart fluorescent display material.

Abstract
Upon excitation of the visible light, probes show colorimetric and fluorescent responses to the specific metal ion, which can be easily detected by the naked eye. Owing to the excitation of the visible light at 423 nm, a novel and simple Schiff-base receptor based chromone derivative called 7-methoxychromone-3-carbaldehyde-(indole-3-formyl) hydrazone (MCIH2) had been investigated as a selective and sensitive probe for Al3+ with colorimetric and fluorescent responses. Upon addition of Al3+ to compound MCIH2 solution, compound MCIH2 could respond to Al3+ with a good selective colorimetric signal, which was easily observed from colorless to yellow-green by the naked eye. Furthermore, a remarkable fluorescence emission enhancement with an "OFF-ON" signal by over 700-fold was triggered, but other various metal ions had no such significant effects on the fluorescence emission. In addition, the detection limit of compound MCIH2 for recognizing Al3+ was evaluated to be as low as 1 × 10-7 M level, which was sufficiently low for sensing Al3+ widely distributed in various environmental and biological systems.

Abstract
Recently, ultrasensitive detection and multi-guest sensing have received extensive attention due to their high sensitivity and efficiency. Herein, we report a novel approach to achieve ultrasensitive detection of multi-analyte. This approach is concluded as "rationally introduce Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) into chemosensor". According to this approach, by rationally introducing self-assembly moiety, the obtained chemosensor DNS could serve as a novel AIEgen and show strong AIE in DMSO/H2O (water fraction 80%) binary solution. Interestingly, a simple fluorescent sensor array based on the DNS has been developed. This sensor array could selectively sense Fe3+, Al3+, H2PO4- and L-Arg in water solution. More importantly, this sensor array shows ultrasensitive detection for Fe3+, Al3+ and L-Arg. The LODs of the sensor array for Fe3+, Al3+ and L-Arg are in the range of 3.54×10-9M to 9.42×10-9M. Moreover, H2PO4- could realize the reversible detection of Fe3+ in the DMSO/H2O (water fraction 80%) solution. Meanwhile, DNS-based test papers and thin films were prepared, which could serve as test kits for convenient detection Fe3+, Al3+, and L-Arg in water. In addition, they could also act as efficient erasable fluorescent display materials.

Abstract
Boronic acid provides faster fluorescence response to Fe3+ compared to other reported sensors, which is critical for continuous dynamic detection. Herein, we reported a novel boronic acid-based sensor 4 that could recognize Fe3+ ion in real time. After 10 equiv. of Fe3+ ion (1 mM) was added, the fluorescence of sensor 4 was immediately quenched by 96%. While other ions, including Ba2+, Ca2+, Cr2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Cs2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, K+, Li+, Mg2+, Mn2+, Na+, Ni2+ or Zn2+, respectively, did not change the fluorescence significantly. Further tests indicated that the high selectively sensing Fe3+ ion benefits from the two boronic acid functionalities in the structure. Moreover, interference experiments showed this sensor has an excellent anti-interference ability. In addition, we performed binding activity test in rabbit plasma and other real samples for practical applications, obtaining similar results. And the thin layer loading sensor 4 was also successfully applied to recognize Fe3+ ion among various ions. Therefore, 4 may serve as a potential sensor for continuous monitoring and detecting Fe3+ ion in real time.

DNA-templated copper nanoclusters as a fluorescent probe for fluoride by using aluminum ions as a bridge. Mikrochim Acta 2019; 186:364. [PMID: 31104105 DOI: 10.1007/s00604-019-3468-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2019] [Accepted: 04/29/2019] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
A selective fluorescent on-off-on probe has have designed for the detection of fluoride (F-) ions based on DNA-templated copper nanocluster (CuNCs) and by using aluminum(III) ions as a bridge. A 40-mer polythymine acts as a template for the reduction of Cu(II) to Cu(0) by ascorbic acid. This result is the formation of red fluorescent CuNCs, with excitation/emission peaks at 340/640 nm. After addition of Al3+ ions, the fluorescence of CuNCs is quenched because the interaction of Al3+ and DNA disturbs the formation of DNA-templated CuNCs. Fluorescence is restored on addition of fluoride to the system. This is due to the desorption of Al3+ from the DNA and the formation of the Al(OH)3F- complex. This system displays a fast fluorometric response to fluoride, with high selectivity over other anions. Fluorescence increases linearly in the 2 to 150 μM F- concentration range, and the detection limit is 1.0 μM. This probe has been successfully used for the detection of F- ions in four brands of toothpaste. The method is rapid, cost-effective, selective, and does not require toxic solvents and reagents. Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of a method for fluorometric determination of fluoride by using DNA-templated copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) and using aluminum(III) as a bridge. The red fluorescence of the CuNCs is quenched in the presence of Al(III) ions but restored after addition of fluoride.

PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2019; 213:97-103.

Abstract
A new oligothiophene functionalized Schiff base sensor 3TDC has been successfully designed and synthesized. Sensor 3TDC exhibited "naked-eye" colorimetric and selective "on-off" fluorescence response toward Cu2+ with high selectivity and sensitivity within a wide pH range. The binding ratio of the sensor 3TDC and Cu2+ was determined to be 1:1 through fluorescence titration, Job's plot, 1H NMR titration, FTIR and DFT studies. The detection limit is calculated to be as low as 2.81 × 10-8 M, which is much lower than the allowable level of Cu2+ in drinking water set by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (~20 μM) and the World Health Organization (~30 μM). The binding constant (Ka) of Cu2+ to sensor 3TDC was found to be 2.52 × 104 M-1. Sensor 3TDC for Cu2+ detection exhibited fast fluorescence response within 30 s and high anti-interference performance. Moreover, sensor 3TDC could be used as an effective fluorescent sensor for detecting Cu2+ ions in various real water and food samples with good accuracy and high precision.

Novel thiophene-based colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on sensor for highly sensitive and selective simultaneous detection of Al 3+ and Zn 2+ in water and food samples and its application in bioimaging. Anal Chim Acta 2018; 1049:196-212. [PMID: 30612651 DOI: 10.1016/j.aca.2018.10.043] [Citation(s) in RCA: 65] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2018] [Revised: 10/02/2018] [Accepted: 10/12/2018] [Indexed: 12/23/2022]
Abstract
A novel bifunctional thiophene-based Schiff base TS as a colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on sensor for rapid and simultaneous detection of Al3+ and Zn2+ ions with high selectivity and sensitivity has been developed. The sensor shows remarkable fluorescence enhancement response for Al3+ and Zn2+ over a broad pH range with good anti-interference capability, which accompanied with an obvious color change easily detected by naked eyes. Sensor TS can detect as low as 3.7 × 10-9 M for Al3+ and 3.0 × 10-8 M for Zn2+, whereas respective association constants are 1.16 × 104 M-1 and 2.08 × 104 M-1. With the help of fluorescence titration and Job's plot, the stoichiometric ratio of TS with Al3+/Zn2+ was determined to be 1:1. The sensing mechanism of sensor TS with Al3+/Zn2+ based on the chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) was analyzed in detail through 1H NMR titration, FTIR, HRMS and DFT studies. Moreover, sensor TS has been applied to the detection of Al3+ and Zn2+ in real environmental water and food samples as well as the filter paper-based test strips. Furthermore, sensor TS has good cell-permeability and can be used to selectively sense intracellular Al3+ and Zn2+ by bioimaging.
