Ratiometric fluorescence-based and chromogenic sensors for the detection of fluoride ions and their application in real samples

This review focuses on the results of synthetic ratiometric fluorescent and colorimetric probes, which have been applied to qualitatively and quantitatively detect fluoride anions in cells, living organisms, and real samples. Primary attention is given to progress made in the working mechanism and applications of these probes to detect fluoride ions in living systems. In addition, design strategies and detection limit for these probes are discussed. This review aims to deliver a comprehensive compilation of the examples reported from 2005 to 2021 on the developments of ratiometric chromogenic and fluorogenic chemosensors for fluoride anions. A total of 20 different ratiometric/colorimetric sensors have been selected for the novelty in their design, sensitivity, detection limit, dynamic range, and speed of detection based on the three fundamental principles of F- ion detection, namely Si-O bond cleavage; excimer emission; and intramolecular charge transfer emission through the B-F monomer, B-F-B bridged dimers, and deprotonation of the amide N-H. Special emphasis has been given to categorize the fluorophores that work in aqueous media, and possible strategies that might be adopted to design green sensors are discussed. Finally, a tabular summary of the comparative studies of all the sensors based on their sensitivity, detection limit, working solvent, and applications is provided. This extensive review may expedite improvements in the development of advanced fluorescent probes for vast and stimulating applications in the future.

Design, Synthesis, and Cellular Imaging Application of a Fluorescent Probe Based on Fluoride Ion-Induced Cyclization of Phenothiazine Derivatives

Fluoride is both necessary and potentially harmful in excessive amounts, making its detection crucial. Fluorescent probes provide a sensitive and selective means for this purpose. In this study, we developed and synthesized a fluorescent probe for LDT using phenothiazine derivatives and aryl vinyl nitrile. Initially non-fluorescent, the probe undergoes a Si-O bond breakage in the presence of fluoride ions, resulting in the formation of a larger conjugated system and subsequent fluorescence emission. The probe exhibits superior selectivity and sensitivity towards fluoride ions, with a detection limit of 0.35 µM. Moreover, cellular imaging experiments demonstrated the probe's effectiveness in recognizing fluoride ions within HepG2 cells.

Design and One-Pot Ultrasound Synthesis of Inorganic Base-Promoted Fluorescent Ligand-Gated Ion Channel Fused Arylpyrazole Sulfonamide Skeletons to Enhance Phloem Mobility and Insecticidal Activity as GABA and nACh Receptors Inhibitors

Ligand-gated ion channels are essential in living organisms, and sulfonamides have antibacterial effects and can be readily coordinated with metal ions with good biological activity. A series of fluorescent ligand-gated ion channel fused arylpyrazole sulfonamide skeletons (APSnM) were synthesized based on a one-pot ultrasound strategy promoted by an inorganic base. APSnM had a high fluorescence quantum yield and a large Stokes shift in ethanol solvent. The ligand bonded ions took on a different color from the ligand and can be used as a probe to detect their own residue on plant surfaces. Their hydrophobic parameters and the fluorescence distribution in Chinese cabbage leaves indicated that APSnM significantly increased the phloem mobility of the plant. The insecticidal activity of APS3Na was higher (LC50 = 7.2423 μg/mL) than that of fipronil (15.2312 μg/mL) against Plutella xylostella, and the mechanism of high insecticidal activity of APS3Na was simulated by molecular docking, which confirmed its strong interactions with the GABA and nACh receptors of Plutella xylostella. Analysis of the crystal structure of these ligand-gated ion channels further confirmed the consistency of their structure and biological activity.

"Lighting up" fluoride: cellular imaging and zebrafish model interrogations using a simple ESIPT-based mycophenolic acid precursor-based probe

The discovery and implementation of media that derive from bioinspired designs and bear optical readouts featuring large Stokes shifts are of continued interest to a wide variety of researchers and clinicians. Myco-F, a novel mycophenolic acid precursor-based probe features a cleavable tert-butyldimethylsiloxy group to allow for fluoride detection. Myco-F exhibits high selectivity and specificity towards F^- (Stokes shift = 120 nm). All measurements were performed in complete aqueous media (LOD=0.38 μM). Myco-F enables detection of fluoride ions in living HEK293 cells and localizes in the eye region (among other regions) of the zebrafish. DFT calculations support the proposed ESIPT working photomechanism.

Cascade reaction-based highly sensitive fluorescent sensing systems applicable for dual-pattern fluorescence visualizing of thiophenol flavors in meat products and condiments

Thiophenols (ArSHs) are widely used as popular flavoring ingredients for making daily dishes. Dissecting the ArSHs contents in common foodstuffs is meaningful in the field of food safety science. Herein, a novel small-molecule sensor 2-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-3-(2-(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)-4-morpholinophenyl)acrylonitrile (NOSA) has been tailored. The NOSA is able to respond to ArSHs, spontaneously yielding highly green-emissive fluorescent iminocoumarin (I₅₀₀). This cascade reaction-based strategy is sensitive (limit-of-detection = 2.8 nM), rapid (within 5 min), and selective toward ArSH flavors. Probe NOSA has been applied to the determination of ArSHs in real-life meat products and condiments. Moreover, a far-red fluorescent compound, 2-(7-(diethylamino)-4-(4-(methylthio)styryl)-2H-chromen-2-ylidene)malononitrile (CMMT), has been first combined with NOSA to construct a composite probe NOSA@CMMT for the ratiometric detection of ArSHs (I₅₀₀/I₆₃₀). System NOSA@CMMT exhibits a conspicuous fluorescence change from deep-red to light-green. Benefitted from the gorgeous chromatic fluctuation, a smartphone-integrated analysis platform is established for the real-time evaluation of ArSHs level.

A FRET-based ratiometric fluorescent probe for Hg2+ detection in aqueous solution and bioimaging in multiple samples

Mercury ion, as a metal cation with great toxic effect, is widely present in various production and living environments. It seriously threatens human health and environmental safety. It is of great significance to develop convenient and effective methods for mercury ion detection. Here, we designed and synthesized a new ratiometric fluorescent probe (namely APS-NA) for the detection of mercury ions in the environment and multiple biological samples. The probe is constructed by covalently connecting two fluorophores with lipolic acid to achieve fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). In the molecular structure of APS-NA, acridone is used as an energy donor, 1,8-naphthalimide is used as an energy acceptor, and a dithioacetal group is used as the reaction site for Hg²⁺. The intact APS-NA mainly shows the green fluorescence from the acceptor moiety 1,8-naphthalimide; the presence of Hg²⁺ ions would break the dithioacetal linkage between acridone and 1,8-naphthalimide; the defunctionalization of FRET would lead to bright blue fluorescence emission of acridone; thus ratiometric fluorescent detection of Hg²⁺ can be achieved by this recognition process. The probe not only has a large Stokes shift (Δλ = 110 nm), but also has high selectivity, high sensitivity (low detection limit 30 nM) and naked eye visualization. In addition, we have successfully used this probe for the detection Hg²⁺ of actual samples and imaging of a variety of organisms. These results indicate that the probe has broad application prospects.

Comparative studies on the absorption and fluorescence responses of hemicyanine to HSO3-, CN-, HS- and ClO. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022;269:120781. [PMID: 34968839 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2021.120781]

A fluorescent probe Hcy-Im bearing an indolium-hemicyanine structure was designed and synthesized to compare its responses to four anions, namely HSO₃^-, CN^-, HS^- and ClO^-. The results disclosed that Hcy-Im reacted with all these four anions in 5% DMSO-PBS buffer with different speeds and spectral changes. Hcy-Im responded to HSO₃^- markedly quicker than CN^- and HS^-, and it responded to CN^- a little quicker than HS^- while the response to ClO^- was much slower than the other three anions. The detection limits for these four anions were calculated to be 0.15 μM, 1.32 μM, 2.07 μM and 2.29 μM, respectively. The characteristic conjugated CN⁺ and CC bonds in Hcy-Im were responsible for the responses towards these four anions via a Michael addition-rearrangement reaction, a 1, 2-addition reaction or an oxidation reaction. These different sensing mechanisms were verified by ¹HNMR and HRMS. Thus, it could be inferred that hemicyanine-based fluorescent probe could detect HSO₃^- sensitively and selectively while the interference of HSO₃^- should not be neglected when it was used for the detection of CN^-, HS^- and ClO^-. Moreover, as HSO₃^-, HS^- and ClO^- are anions endogenously generated in human bodies, enough attention should be paid to the presence of physiological level of these three anions in certain tissues when hemicyanine-based fluorescent probe is applied for the detection of biorelevant analytes in biological samples.

A new near-infrared fluorescence probe synthesized from IR-783 for detection and bioimaging of hydrogen peroxide in vitro and in vivo

A new near-infrared fluorescence probe was developed and synthesized for detection of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) in vitro and in vivo. Synthesized from IR-783, the probe DBIS was designed to connect 4-(Bromomethyl)benzeneboronic acid pinacol ester as the recognizing moiety to the stable hemicyanine skeleton. Reaction of probe DBIS with H₂O₂ would result in the oxidation of phenylboronic acid pinacol ester, and thereby release the near-infrared fluorophore HXIS. The background signal of probe DBIS is very low, which is necessary for sensitive detection. Compared with the existing probes for detecting H₂O₂, the proposed probe DBIS shows excellent optical performance in vitro and in vivo, high selectivity, high sensitivity and good water solubility, as well as near-infrared fluorescence emission 708 nm, with a low detection limit of 0.12 μM. Furthermore, probe DBIS is low cytotoxic, cell membrane permeable, and its applicability has been shown to visualize endogenous H₂O₂ in mice. In addition, it is the first time that paper chips have been used as carrier to detect H₂O₂ through fluorescence signals instead of the traditional liquid phase detection mode of fluorescent probes. These superior characteristics of the probe make it have great application potential in biological systems or in vivo related research.

Activity-based NIR fluorescent probes based on the versatile hemicyanine scaffold: design strategy, biomedical applications, and outlook

The discovery of a near-infrared (NIR, 650-900 nm) fluorescent chromophore hemicyanine dye with high structural tailorability is of great significance in the field of detection, bioimaging, and medical therapeutic applications. It exhibits many outstanding advantages including absorption and emission in the NIR region, tunable spectral properties, high photostability as well as a large Stokes shift. These properties are superior to those of conventional fluorogens, such as coumarin, fluorescein, naphthalimides, rhodamine, and cyanine. Researchers have made remarkable progress in developing activity-based multifunctional fluorescent probes based on hemicyanine skeletons for monitoring vital biomolecules in living systems through the output of fluorescence/photoacoustic signals, and integration of diagnosis and treatment of diseases using chemotherapy or photothermal/photodynamic therapy or combination therapy. These achievements prompted researchers to develop more smart fluorescent probes using a hemicyanine fluorogen as a template. In this review, we begin by describing the brief history of the discovery of hemicyanine dyes, synthetic approaches, and design strategies for activity-based functional fluorescent probes. Then, many selected hemicyanine-based probes that can detect ions, small biomolecules, overexpressed enzymes and diagnostic reagents for diseases are systematically highlighted. Finally, potential drawbacks and the outlook for future investigation and clinical medicine transformation of hemicyanine-based activatable functional probes are also discussed.

Advanced NIR ratiometric probes for intravital biomedical imaging

Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging technology (NIR-I region, 650-950 nm and NIR-II region, 1000-1700 nm), with deeper tissue penetration and less disturbance from auto-fluorescence than that in visible region (400-650 nm), is playing a more and more extensive role in the field of biomedical imaging. With the development of precise medicine, intelligent NIR fluorescent probes have been meticulously designed to provide more sensitive, specific and accurate feedback on detection. Especially, recently developed ratiometric fluorescent probes have been devoted to quantify physiological and pathological parameters with a combination of responsive fluorescence changes and self-calibration. Herein, we systemically introduced the construction strategies of NIR ratiometric fluorescent probes and their applications in biological imagingin vivo, such as molecular detection, pH and temperature measurement, drug delivery monitoring and treatment evaluation. We further summarized possible optimization on the design of ratiometric probes for quantitative analysis with NIR fluorescence, and prospected the broader optical applications of ratiometric probes in life science and clinical translation.

A new metal-free near-infrared fluorescent probe based on nitrofuran for the detection and bioimaging of carbon monoxide releasing molecule-2 in vivo

As a stable donor for releasing controlled amounts of CO, carbon monoxide releasing molecule-2 (CORM-2) is a new type of therapeutic drug that contributes to exploring the pathophysiological effects of CO. The accurate detection of CORM-2 in biological systems is of great significance for controlling its dosage as a therapeutic drug and elucidating the reaction mechanisms of CO, but currently there is a lack of metal-free near-infrared fluorescent probes. Herein, a new metal-free near-infrared fluorescent probe based on nitrofuran which could selectively identify CORM-2 was designed and it has been successfully applied in living cells, zebrafish and mice. After reacting with CORM-2, both the color and fluorescence signal of the solution are restored, which is ascribed to the reduction of the nitro group. The spectroscopic probe DXPN shows high sensitivity to CORM-2 with a low detection limit of 87 nM and near-infrared fluorescence emission of 712 nm. Notably, this is the first time that paper chips are being used as a carrier to detect CORM-2 through fluorescence signals instead of the traditional liquid phase detection mode of fluorescent probes. These superior properties of the probe make it a promising and reliable tool for exploring the role played by CORM-2 in biological systems.

A novel ICT-based chemosensor for F- and its application in real samples and bioimaging

A novel colorimetric and fluorescent chemosensor MQS-Si with intramolecular charge transfer character has been designed and synthesized. The chemosensor shows exclusively "off-on" fluorescence response toward F^- at 620 nm in HEPES (pH 7.4): DMSO solution (7:3, v/v), which is attributed to the specific cleavage of Si-O bond. The ultrasensitive detection limit for F^- in the fluorescence measurement is down to 30 nM. Application of the chemosensor has been demonstrated by selective detection of F^- in drinking water, urine and serum samples and fluorescence imaging of F^- in living cells and zebrafish, which proves that MQS-Si has a promising application in vitro and in vivo detection of F^- and may be utilized for the diagnosis of fluorosis and esteofluorosis.

Ultrafast fluorescent probe with near-infrared analytical wavelength for fluoride ion detection in real samples

The first ultrafast fluorescence probe with response time in seconds (10 s) for fluoride ions (F^-) has been proposed by conjugating dimethylthiophosphoryl group as a recognition unit with the near-infrared fluorophore of hemicyanine. The response mechanism is the F^--induced cleavage of the dimethylthiophosphoryl group, along with the liberation of the fluorophore, which results in a distinctly enhanced fluorescence intensity at 730 nm (λ_ex = 680 nm). The fluorescence enhancement of the probe is directly proportional to the F^- concentration in the range of 10-300 µM with the detection limit of 4.28 µM. The probe has been successfully used to determine F^- concentration in real water and toothpaste samples as well as image F^- in living cells. The simplicity and quick response of this probe endow it with the ability of detecting F^- rapidly in real samples.

A molecular design for a turn-off NIR fluoride chemosensor

We designed a turn-off near-infrared fluorescent fluoride chemosensor NIR-BODIPY-Si through the density functional theory/time-dependent functional theory calculations. In the designed sensor, the tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy moiety responses to the fluoride-triggered desilylation process, and the BODIPY dye serves as fluorophore. The molecular design firstly showed that the possibility of photoinduced electron transfer is low/high in NIR-BODIPY-Si/NIR-BODIPY-O (the desilylation product), thus referring that the fluorescence sensing mechanism is a photoinduced electron transfer mechanism that quenched the sensor's fluorescence after detection of fluoride anions. Absorption and emission spectra further demonstrated that the designed sensor is a near-infrared chemosensor. The largest binding energy between NIR-BODIPY-Si and F^- suggests that the sensor has an excellent selectivity to F^- and the low barrier of the desilylation reaction accounts for the sensor's rapid response speed to F^-. We also provided the synthetic routine for the molecule sensor, with the expectation that this molecular design can shed some light on the experimentally based design procedure.

Rare-Earth-Doped Cerium Oxide Nanocubes for Biomedical Near-Infrared and Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence provides a new avenue for biomedical fluorescence imaging that allows for the tracking of fluorophore through several centimeters of biological tissue. However, such fluorophores are rare and, due to accumulation-derived toxicity, are often restricted from clinical applications. Deep tissue imaging not only provided by near-infrared fluorophores but also conventionally carried out by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) is also hampered by the toxicity of the contrast agents. This work offers a biocompatible imaging solution: cerium oxide (CeO₂) nanocubes doped with ytterbium or neodymium, and co-doped with gadolinium, showing simultaneous potential for near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) applications. A synthetic process described in this work allows for the stable incorporation of ytterbium or neodymium, both possessing emissive transitions in the NIR. As a biocompatible nanomaterial, the CeO₂ nanocubes act as an ideal host material for doping, minimizing lanthanide fluorescence self-quenching as well as any potential toxicity associated with the dopants. The uptake of nanocubes by HeLa cells maximized at 12 h was monitored by hyperspectral imaging of the ytterbium or neodymium NIR emission, indicating the capacity of the lanthanide-doped nanocubes for in vitro and a potential for in vivo fluorescence imaging. The co-doped nanocubes demonstrate no significant loss of NIR emission intensity upon co-doping with 2 atomic % gadolinium and exhibit magnetic susceptibilities in the range of known negative contrast agents. However, a small increase to 6 atomic % gadolinium significantly affects the magnetic susceptibility ratio (r₂/r₁), shifting closer to the positive contrast range and suggesting the potential use of the CeO₂ nanocube matrix doped with selected rare-earth ions as a tunable MRI contrast agent with NIR imaging capabilities.

Highly Selective and Sensitive Detection of Biogenic Defense Phytohormone Salicylic Acid in Living Cells and Plants Using a Novel and Viable Rhodamine-Functionalized Fluorescent Probe

Detecting plant-derived signal molecules using fluorescent probes is a key topic and a huge challenge for scientists. Salicylic acid (SA), a vital plant-derived defense hormone, can activate global transcriptional reprogramming to systemically express a network of prominent pathogenesis-related proteins against invasive microorganisms. This strategy is called systemic acquired resistance (SAR). Therefore, monitoring the dynamic fluctuations of SA in subcellular microenvironments can advance our understanding of different physiological and pathological functions during the SA-induced SAR mechanism, thus benefiting the discovery and development of novel immune activators that contribute to crop protection. Here, detection of signaling molecule SA in plant callus tissues was first reported and conducted by a simple non-fluorescent rhodamine-tagged architecture bearing a flexible 2-amino-N,N-dimethylacetamide pattern. This study can markedly advance and promote the usage of fluorescent SA probes for distinguishing SA in the plant kingdom.

Synthetic ratiometric fluorescent probes for detection of ions

Metal cations and anions are essential for versatile physiological processes. Dysregulation of specific ion levels in living organisms is known to have an adverse effect on normal biological events. Owing to the pathophysiological significance of ions, sensitive and selective methods to detect these species in biological systems are in high demand. Because they can be used in methods for precise and quantitative analysis of ions, organic dye-based ratiometric fluorescent probes have been extensively explored in recent years. In this review, recent advances (2015-2019) made in the development and biological applications of synthetic ratiometric fluorescent probes are described. Particular emphasis is given to organic dye-based ratiometric fluorescent probes that are designed to detect biologically important and relevant ions in cells and living organisms. Also, the fundamental principles associated with the design of ratiometric fluorescent probes and perspectives about how to expand their biological applications are discussed.

Rhodol-based fluorescent probes for the detection of fluoride ion and its application in water, tea and live animal imaging

Herein, we presented two novel turn-on colorimetric and fluorescent probes based on a F^- triggered SiO bond cleavage reaction, which displayed several desired properties for the quantitative detection for F^-, such as high specificity, rapid response time (within 3 min) and naked-eye visualization. The fluorescence intensity at 574 nm (absorbance at 544 nm) of the solution was found to increase linearly with the concentration of F^- (0.00-30.0 μM) with the detection limit was estimated to be 0.47 μM/0.48 μM. Based on these excellent optical properties, the probes were employed to monitor F^- in real water samples and tea samples with satisfactory. Furthermore, it was successfully applied for fluorescent imaging of F^- in living nude mice, suggesting that it could be used as a powerful tool to predict and explore the biological functions of F^- in physiological and pathological processes.

A novel benzothiadiazole-based and NIR-emissive fluorescent sensor for detection of Hg2+ and its application in living cell and zebrafish imaging

The probe TBBA exhibited excellent analytical properties with a remarkably large Stokes shift (195 nm), rapid response, high selectivity and sensitivity, good binding constant (2.37 × 10⁴ M⁻¹) and low LOD (13.10 nM).

Fluoride Induces Autoimmune Orchitis Involved with Enhanced IL-17A Secretion in Mice Testis

Fluoride (F) widely exists in the water and food. Recent studies reported that F induced testicular toxicity via inflammation reaction. This study was aimed to explore the mechanism of F-induced inflammation in testis. 100 healthy male mice (BALB/cJ strain) were randomly divided into five groups including: control, experimental autoimmune orchitis (EAO), and three F groups (25, 50, and 100 mg/L sodium fluoride (NaF)). After 150 d, the results showed a significant increase in testicular cytokines levels including of IL-17A, IL-6, IFN-γ, and TNF-α in NaF and EAO groups compared with control group. Interestingly, the presence of specific antisperm autoantibodies in antitesticular autoantibodies and the notable recruitment of immunocyte (T cells and dendritic cells) were also observed in NaF and EAO groups. In addition, findings showed that in NaF and EAO groups macrophages and T cells both significantly secreted IL-17A, and the protein and mRNA levels of cytokines (IL-6 and TGF-β) were significantly increased. From these results, it can be concluded that autoimmune orchitis and IL-17A are implicated in F-induced testicular inflammation.

Highly Sensitive Ratiometric Fluorescent Paper Sensors for the Detection of Fluoride Ions

Two sensitive and ratiometric fluorescent probes (probe I and probe II) were developed for the detection of fluoride ions. Probe I can detect fluoride ions quantitatively within a range of 0-6 μM and a detection limit of 73 nM, while probe II has a range of 0-40 μM and a detection limit of 138 nM. The test strips from probe I are quickly able to recognize F- (5 min) inside of the F- safety level in drinking water (1.0 mg/L, ∼5 μM) under 254 nm ultraviolet light, and the test strips from probe II quickly recognize F- (12 min) in dangerously high F- levels in water (4.0 mg/L, ∼21 μM) under 254 nm ultraviolet light. This combination of fluorescent paper sensors from probe I and probe II can be used as a simple and convenient tool to determine whether water is safe to drink or dangerous.

Sensitive Water-Soluble Fluorescent Probe Based on Umpolung and Aggregation-Induced Emission Strategies for Selective Detection of Hg2+ in Living Cells and Zebrafish

Using Hg²⁺-induced umpolung reaction and aggregation induced emission (AIE), we have rationally developed a water-soluble fluorescent probe 2,2'-(((4-(4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl)phenyl)methylene)bis(sulfanediyl))diethanol (MPIPBS) for Hg²⁺ detection. MPIPBS was found to have high selectivity and sensitivity toward Hg²⁺ detection. The mechanism of MPIPBS response to Hg²⁺ was verified by ¹H NMR titration, HPLC, and HRMS spectroscopy. The detection limit was examined to be 1.45 nM, which is lower than most reported probes for Hg²⁺. Taking advantage of excellent optical properties of AIEgen, a paper based sensor for Hg²⁺ detection was fabricated by immobilizing the MPIPBS on Waterman test paper. Meanwhile, MPIPBS showed satisfactory analytical performance in real water and urine samples. Further, thanks to the high water solubility, cell membrane permeability and low cytotoxicity, MPIPBS was further used to detect Hg²⁺ both in living cells and zebrafish. We anticipate that the prepared probe was available to detect Hg²⁺ in environment and biosamples.

A simple urea-based multianalyte and multichannel chemosensor for the selective detection of F−, Hg2+ and Cu2+ in solution and cells and the extraction of Hg2+ and Cu2+ from real water sources: a logic gate mimic ensemble

Herein, a hydrazine-based chromogenic, fluorogenic and electrochemical chemosensor BCC [1,5-bis(4-cyanophenyl) carbonohydrazide] was reported.
