Abstract
In recent years, the field of Supramolecular Chemistry has witnessed tremendous progress owing to the development of versatile optical sensors for the detection of harmful biological analytes. Nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) is one such scaffold that has been exploited as fluorescent probes for selective recognition of harmful analytes and their optical imaging in various cell lines including HeLa, PC3, A549, SMMC-7721, MDA-MB-231, HepG2, MFC-7, etc. The NBD-derived molecular probes are majorly synthesized from the chloro derivative of NBD via nucleophilic aromatic substitution. This general NBD moiety ligation method to nucleophiles has been leveraged to develop various derivatives for sensing analytes. NBD-derived probes are extensively used as optical sensors because of remarkable properties like excellent stability, large Stoke's shift, high efficiency and stability, visible excitation, easy use, low cost, and high quantum yield. This article reviewed NBD-based probes for the years 2017-2023 according to the sensing of analyte(s), including cations, anions, thiols, and small molecules like hydrogen sulfide. The sensing mechanism, designing of the probe, plausible binding mechanism, and biological application of chemosensors are summarized. The real-time application of optical sensors has been discussed by various methods, such as paper strips, molecular logic gates, smartphone detection, development of test kits, etc. This article will update the researchers with the in vivo and in vitro biological applicability of NBD-based molecular probes and challenges the research fraternity to design, propose, and develop better chemosensors in the future possessing commercial utility.

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous ammonium ion (NH4 + ) batteries have attracted much attention due to the unique properties of NH4 + . Polyaniline (PA) with outstanding conductivity is a potential cathode material, but it can be oxidized to pernigraniline (PG) rapidly, resulting in its poor stability. In this study, polyaniline@poly(o-fluoroaniline)@carbon layer (PA@POFA@C) is prepared for excellent and durable NH4 + storage. PA@POFA@C exhibits a high capacity of 208 mAh g-1 at 0.2 A g-1 and maintains 126 mAh g-1 at 10 A g-1 . More importantly, an excellent capacity retention rate of 88.24% is achieved after 2000 cycles with ≈100% coulombic efficiency. Spectroscopy studies suggest analogous confinement effect can effectively limit the escape of hydrogen in imine group, and form the hydrogen-restricted region between the PA and POFA layer which can provide H+ for the complete reduction of PG. Meanwhile, the hydrophobic effect of POFA effectively restrains the hydrolysis of PG. Interestingly, the introduction of C layer improves the hydrophilicity of electrode and shortens the activation process, serving as the outermost protective layer of the electrode. Finally, PA@POFA@C achieves desirable electrochemical performances with analogous confinement effect. This research provides ideas for the preparation of advanced polymer electrodes for aqueous NH4 + batteries.

Abstract
The sensing mechanism of the quinoline-derived Schiff base HL (concentrated from 8-hydroxyquinoline with 2,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde) as a highly selective fluorescent probe for Zn2+ was investigated by theoretical calculations with DFT and TDDFT. The conformations of the HL molecule, its ketone form and its Zinc complex structure, were optimized in the ground and excited states. The systems have been studied in depth in terms of structural parameters, frontier molecular orbitals, absorption and fluorescence spectra as well as potential energy curves analysis and approximately density gradient analysis. The present theoretical calculations propose a different detection mechanism from that proposed experimentally. The theoretical results predict that the fluorescence quenching in HL is attributed to the excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) rather than the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) of benzene to electrons. When Zn2+ is introduced, Zn2+ takes the place of the H atom, creating a complex that blocks the ESIPT reaction and restores fluorescence.

Abstract
We investigated hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) sensing on NH2-functionalized carbon dots (Cdots) for three different -NH2 positions, and the N atom was found to be the active site using a quantum computational approach. B3LYP and 6-31G(d,p) were used for density functional theory (DFT) ground state calculations, whereas CAM-B3LYP and the same basis set were used in time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) excited state calculations. Structural optimization showed that the H2O2 is chemisorbed on 1-sim via a C-N⋯H hydrogen bond interaction with an adsorption energy of -10.61 kcal mol-1. Mulliken atomic charge distributions and electrostatic potential (ESP) analysis were both used to determine reactivity of the molecules at the atomic level. For in-depth analysis of the ground states, we utilized Frontier molecular orbital (FMO) theory, quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM), and non-covalent interaction (NCI) index analysis. In addition, we also present UV-vis absorption spectra and charge transfer lengths to understand the mechanism of H2O2 sensing in excited states. Based on the molecular and electronic properties of the NH2-Cdots, it was shown that 1-sim is a potential candidate for use as an electrochemical sensor for H2O2 sensing. Whereas 3-sim is believed to be a potential candidate for use as an optical sensor of H2O2 based on the UV-vis characteristics via photoinduced charge transfer.

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-.
