Pyrene-Based "Turn-On" Fluorescent Polymeric Probe with Thioacetal Units in the Main Chain for Mercury(II) Detection in Aqueous Solutions and Living Cells. Macromol Rapid Commun 2024; 45:e2300631. [PMID: 38158931 DOI: 10.1002/marc.202300631] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 12/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024]
Abstract
A water-soluble polymeric pyrene-based polythioacetal (PTA-Py) with thioacetal units in the main chain is simply synthesized by direct polycondensation of 3, 6-dioxa-1, 8-octanedithiol, 1-pyrene formaldehyde, and mPEG2k-SH. The probe PTA-Py shows a good fluorescence response to Hg2+ ions due to the Hg2+-promoted deprotection reaction of thioacetal groups to regenerate the original 1-pyrene formaldehyde compound. After adding Hg2+ to the PTA-Py solution, the fluorescence intensity (FI) gradually increases with increasing concentrations of Hg2+. Compared with other metal ions, the probe exhibits high sensitivity, good selectivity, and rapid response to Hg2+. The low detection limits are 12.3 nm in ethanol-PBS buffer and 13.3 nm in water, respectively. The results imply that the simply synthesized water-soluble polymeric probe had potential applications in the rapid detection of Hg2+ ions in aqueous solutions. Moreover, the polymeric PTA-Py shows high sensitivity for CH3Hg+ with detection limits of 26.5 nm in ethanol/PBS buffer. In addition, PTA-Py can efficiently detect Hg2+ ions in HeLa cells. The results demonstrate that a valuable method is developed for biocompatible polymeric sensors for Hg2+ ions in biological and environmental samples.

Abstract
A new AIE-based luminogen TPES, as a ratiometric fluorescence probe for mercury(II) was readily synthesized. The probe combined the advantages of the outstanding specificity of Hg2+-triggered deprotection reaction of thioketal and the brilliant emission of AIEgens in aggregated state. Once encountered aqueous Hg2+, fluorescent color of TPES in THF-H2O (fw = 98%) altered from blue to green rapidly, while other metal cations gave no interference to the probe. And the mechanism of this chemosensor was carefully verified by 1H NMR analysis, FTIR and MS spectra. As expected, TPES exhibits excellent selectivity and sensitivity towards Hg2+ in the solid state. When using filter paper as the solid medium, the fabricated test strips could signify Hg2+ ions with the LOD as 1 × 10-5 M (Hg2+ in aqueous solution), accompanied with a distinct emitting altered from blue to green. Furthermore, by changing the medium from filter paper to silica gel plate, a more significant fluorescence alteration from blue to yellow was achieved, and the LOD was further optimized to 1 × 10-6 M as discerned by naked-eye.

Abstract
Progress with fluorescent flippers, small-molecule probes to image membrane tension in living systems, has been limited by the effort needed to synthesize the twisted push-pull mechanophore. Here, we move to a higher oxidation level to introduce a new design paradigm that allows the screening of flipper probes rapidly, at best in situ. Late-stage clicking of thioacetals and acetals allows simultaneous attachment of targeting units and interfacers and exploration of the critical chalcogen-bonding donor at the same time. Initial studies focus on plasma membrane targeting and develop the chemical space of acetals and thioacetals, from acyclic amino acids to cyclic 1,3-heterocycles covering dioxanes as well as dithiolanes, dithianes, and dithiepanes, derived also from classics in biology like cysteine, lipoic acid, asparagusic acid, DTT, and epidithiodiketopiperazines. From the functional point of view, the sensitivity of membrane tension imaging in living cells could be doubled, with lifetime differences in FLIM images increasing from 0.55 to 1.11 ns. From a theoretical point of view, the complexity of mechanically coupled chalcogen bonding is explored, revealing, among others, intriguing bifurcated chalcogen bonds.

Abstract
Herein, we developed a class of functionalized silicon nanoparticles (F-SiNPs) bio-probes named thiol-conjugated F-SiNPs. They combine excellent biocompatibility with small dimensions (<10 nm) and biological usefulness with sustained and robust fluorescence (3.32% photoluminescent quantum yield). Identifying 3-Mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA), which lowers the quantity of gamma-aminobutyric acid in the brain, and mercury (Hg2+) was a crucially important step since their excessive levels are a sign of several disorders. Using F-SiNPs as a fluorescent bio-probe, we provided an "off-on" technique for sensitively and selectively determining Hg2+ and 3-MPA in this study. The 3-(2-aminoethylamino) propyl (dimethoxymethylsilane) and basic fuchsin as precursors were hydrothermally treated to produce the F-SiNPs exhibiting green fluorescence. Our results suggest that Hg2+ reduced the fluorescence of F-SiNPs because of strong ionic interactions and metal-ligand binding among many thiols and carboxyl groupings at the surface of Hg2+ and F-SiNPs. Additionally, the resultants demonstrated that after being quenched by Hg2+, the produced F-SiNPs led to the distinctive "off-on" response to 3-MPA. Moreover, the method could detect Hg2+ and 3-MPA with limits of detection of 0.065 μM and 0.017 μM, respectively. The technique employed is quick, easy, affordable, and environmentally friendly. The sensing platform has successfully determined Hg2+ and 3-MPA in urine, water, and human serum samples.

Abstract
A facile, quick, and sensitive ratiometric luminescence sensor is designed for detection aluminum ions in water samples using luminescence or eye-vision. This approach relies on the emission change of the europium(III) complex with 3-(2-naphthoyl)-1,1,1,-trifluoro acetone (3-NTA) after interaction with various concentration of aluminum ions. The addition of aluminum ions suppressed the Eu(III) emission at 615 nm under 333 nm excitation, while simultaneously enhancing the ligand emission at 480 nm. Optimum detection was obtained in methanol. The quantification of aluminum ions using ratiometric method was determined by plotting the luminescence ratio (F480nm/F615nm) versus aluminum ions concentration. The calibration plot was obtained within the range 0.1-100 µM with LOD = 0.27 µM. Additionally, the concentration of aluminum ions can be estimated semi-quantitatively by visually observing the luminescence colour change of the probe from red to light green and then to dark green after being excited by a UV lamp with 365 nm. As far as we are aware, this is the first luminescent lanthanide complex-based ratiometric probe for the detection of aluminum ions. The probe showed remarkable aluminum ions selectivity relative to that of other metal ions. The suggested sensor was used effectively to identify aluminum ions in water samples with good results.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
A novel cationic iridium(III) complex [(ppy)2Ir(bPCPC)]PF6 (ppy: 2-phenylpyridine; bPCPC: 2-([2,2'-bipyridine]-4-carbonyl)-N-phenylhydrazinecarbothioamide) containing a thiosemicarbazide unit was designed and synthesized. The thiosemicarbazide unit was a sensitive functional group to Hg2+, when it reacted with Hg2+, it was desulphurized and thus led to the formation of 1,3,4-oxadiazole, [(ppy)2Ir(bPCPC)]PF6 resultantly was used as a "turn-on" chemodosimeter for luminescent detection of Hg2+ in DMF/PBS buffer solution at pH = 7-11. Except for Ag+, recognition capability of [(ppy)2Ir(bPCPC)]PF6 to Hg2+ was not interfered by other common metal ions (Co2+, Li+, Zn2+, Pb2+, K+, Al3+, Na+, Mn2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+, Cr3+, Ba2+, Mg2+, Ni2+ and Ca2+). The detection limit was 1.83 × 10-9 mol∙L-1 (0.37 ppb), which indicated the complex was a highly sensitive chemiluminescent detection reagent of Hg2+.

Abstract
Fluorescent probes that emit in the far-red (600-700 nm), first near-infrared (NIR-I, 700-900 nm), and second NIR (NIR-II, 900-1700 nm) regions possess unique advantages, including low photodamage and deep penetration into biological samples. Notably, NIR-II optical imaging can achieve tissue penetration as deep as 5-20 mm, which is critical for biomedical sensing and clinical applications. Much research has focused on developing far-red to NIR-II dyes to meet the needs of modern biomedicine. Flavylium compounds are natural colorants found in many flowers and fruits. Flavylium-inspired dyes are ideal platforms for constructing fluorescent probes because of their far-red to NIR emissions, high quantum yields, high molar extinction coefficients, and good water solubilities. The synthetic and structural diversities of flavylium dyes also enable NIR-II probe development, which markedly advance the field of NIR-II in vivo imaging. In the last decade, there have been huge developments in flavylium-inspired dyes and their applications as far-red to NIR fluorescent probes for biomedical applications. In this review, we highlight the optical properties of representative flavylium dyes, design strategies, sensing mechanisms, and applications as fluorescent probes for detecting and visualizing important biomedical species and events. This review will prompt further research not only on flavylium dyes, but also into all far-red to NIR fluorophores and fluorescent probes. Moreover, this interest will hopefully spillover into applications related to complex biological systems and clinical treatments, ranging in focus from the sub-organelle to whole-animal levels.

Abstract
Drawing upon an intramolecular cyclization/annulation reaction sequence mediated by Hg 2+ ions, a BODIPY-based fluorescent probe decorated with an alkynyl hydrazone motif responds rapidly and selectively to Hg 2+ ions, with a detection limit of 29 nM and a fluorescence turn-on ratio of 15-fold. With the addition of Hg 2+ ions, the BODIPY-based alkynyl hydrazone transforms into a pyrazole ring to mediate a turn-on emission response clearly observable to the naked eye under visible light excitation.

Abstract
Development of new fluorescent probes for mercury ion analysis in environmental or living organism is undergoing quick growth due to its detrimental toxicity to environmental safety, ecological security, and human being. However, in most cases, the industrial waste water is acidic whereas it remains a great challenge to real-time monitor mercury ion directly at low pH using small molecule fluorescence probe. In this study, we have successfully designed and synthesized the Naph (1, 8-Naphthalimide derivative) -based small molecule probe termed as Naph-NSS capable of monitoring mercury ion in a broad range at low pH (from 2.0 to 7.0). The solid spectral studies demonstrated the high sensitivity and selectivity of the probe towards mercury ion among various species. After binding with Hg2+, the fluorescence of Naph-NSS greatly enhanced, and the mechanism of which was investigated by DFT studies. The probe was able to be loaded on paper strip for instant and fast detection of mercury ions. In addition, the probe is also suitable for detection of mercury ion in environmental samples, living cells and in vivo.

Abstract
Marine waters are becoming contaminated by diverse pollutants at a fast rate, and detection of these water pollutants has become a major concern in recent years. Among these, mercury is considered the most toxic element for human health. At present, despite the commonly used methods for its detection are accurate, they often require sophisticated equipments, have relatively high costs, are demanding and time-consuming. Herein a novel solution to detect mercury (II) pollution in sea water is proposed, and an easy and portable detection method has been developed. Indeed, a hydrophobin based chimera able to both adhere to polystyrene multiwell plates and bind mercury (II) with a consequent fluorescent decrease was designed. The chimera was the recognition element in a fluorescence-based biosensor able to detect mercury (II) in the nM range. Indeed, this biosensor specifically measure Hg2+ concentration also in the presence of other metals, reaching a limit of detection of 0.4 nM in tap water and 0.3 nM in sea water. Moreover, the developed biosensor was coupled to machine learning methodologies with the big advantage of predicting mercury concentration levels without the use of classical reader devices, thus allowing in situ monitoring of sea pollution by non-skilled personnel.

Abstract
A novel symmetric bianthracene derivative (D2) containing one benzene ring and two ethyl thioglycolates connecting to the benzene ring on both sides of the bianthracene unit was designed and synthesized. D2 can detect Fe3+ and Hg2+ in acetonitrile/water (6:4, v/v) solution via different changes of absorbance and fluorescence in the pH range from 3 to 10. D2 exhibits high colorimetric sensitivity for Fe3+ with low detection limit (1.87 × 10-5 mol/L). The absorbance intensity of D2 in acetonitrile/water solution show a linear response to Fe3+ in the wide concentration range of 0 -1000 μM, which is beneficial for quantitative analysis. D2 also displays highly selective fluorescent sensing for Hg2+ with a low detection limit of 1.07 µM over other metal ions and can accurately detect the existence of Hg2+ in water samples.

Abstract
The selective and efficient monitoring of mercury (Hg2+ ) contamination found in the environment and ecosystem has been carried out. Thus, a new 1,8-naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe NADP for the detection of Hg2+ based on a fluorescence enhancement strategy has been designed and synthesized. The NADP probe can detect Hg2+ with high selectivity and sensitivity and a low detection limit of 13 nm. The detection mechanism was based on a Hg2+ -triggered deprotection reaction, resulting in a dramatic change in fluorescence from colorless to green at physiological pH. Most importantly, biological investigation has shown that the NADP probe can be successfully applied to the monitoring of Hg2+ in living cells and zebrafish with low cytotoxicity.

Abstract
Hydrazine and mercury (Hg) poisoning represented a serious hazard to human health. So, developing method to detect and recognize them is highly desirable. Here, we prepared a multifunctional colorimetric and fluorescent probe (PI-Rh) consisting of a phenanthroimidazole (PI) dye conjugated with a Rhodamine (Rh) group for the effective recognition of hydrazine and Hg2+, induvidually and collectively, with different colorimetric and fluorescence outputs. Probe PI-Rh displays low detection limits measured to be 0.0632 μM (~2 ppb) and 0.0101 μM (~2 ppb) respectively for hydrazine and Hg2+ with high selectivity and excellent sensitivity. Moreover, the experimental results indicated that the superiority of this probe lied in its wide applications, for example, successful response in real water, and soil analysis. Interestingly, an visual, rapid, and real-time detection of gaseous hydrazine can be realized with 0.2793 μM detection limit using the facile PI-Rh-impregnated test paper.

Abstract
Mercury has complex biological toxicity and can cause a variety of physiological diseases and even death, so it is of great importance to develop novel strategies for detecting trace mercury in environmental and biological samples. In this work, we designed a new coumarin-based colorimetric and fluorescent probe CNS, which could be obtained from inexpensive starting materials with high overall yield in three steps. Probe CNS could selectively respond to Hg2+ with obvious color and fluorescence changes, and the presence of other metal ions had no effect on the fluorescence changes. Probe CNS also exhibited high sensitivity against Hg2+, with a detection limit as low as 2.78 × 10-8 M. More importantly, the behavioral tracks of zebrafish had no obvious changes upon treatment with 10 μM probe CNS, thus indicating its low toxicity. The probe showed potential application value and was successfully used for detecting Hg2+ in a test strip, HeLa cells and living zebrafish larvae.

Abstract
Mercury and sulfur dioxide (SO2) are common pollutants in the ecological environment, which are important factors causing many diseases of organisms. The lack of appropriate analytical tools has limited the further understanding of the relationship between ionic mercury (Hg2+) and SO2. Herein, a bifunctional fluorescent probe LJ was designed and explored to simultaneously detect Hg2+ and SO2 via desulfurization reaction and Michael addition reaction, respectively. Probe LJ showed distinct fluorescence responses which a large near-infrared fluorescence enhancement towards Hg2+ at λem = 713 nm and a blue shift at λem = 450 nm towards SO2 without any spectral cross interferences. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first fluorescent probe with dual fluorescent emission channels to detect Hg2+ and SO2 with the detection limit of 187 nM and 354 nM, respectively. Moreover, cell fluorescent imaging experiments indicated that the probe was mitochondria targetable and provided evidence that SO2 could be used as an antidote to attenuate the toxicity of Hg2+ in living cells.

Abstract
A novel pyridyl-based ligand with multiple binding sites was developed as potential turn on fluorescent probe for mercuric ion. In comparison with other transition metal ions, the ligand displayed a significant optical selectivity and sensitivity for Hg2+ in aqueous solution with a remarkable fluorescence enhancement. The obtained spectroscopic response was related to the inhibition of the photo-chemical mechanism known as photo-induced electron transfer (PET) in the ligand and CN isomerization by Hg2+ binding. A good linearity between fluorescence responses and Hg2+ concentration was obtained in the range 3.3 × 10-9 M-1.6 × 10-8 M and a nanomolar level limit of detection (LOD) (1.4 × 10-9 M ~ 0.28 ppb) and limit of quantification (LOQ) (4.8 × 10-9 M ~ 0.93 ppb) were obtained. Both LOD and LOQ values are very low compared to the reported permissible Hg2+ level in drinking water (2 ppb) by US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The possible binding mode between ligand and Hg2+ were determined using Job's plot analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations and a complex with 1:1 stoichiometric ratio was suggested. The response of the pyridyl ligand upon Hg2+ addition was noted to be fast without any time delay and reversible. The performance of the ligand at nanomolar level of Hg2+ and real sample application of the proposed method was investigated and satisfactory results were obtained.

Abstract
Sensing heavy metal ions particularly for the most toxic Hg2+ is a long-term pursuit for chemists because of its obvious and extreme harmfulness to both the environment and human health. Herein, a novel 'turn-on' perylenebisimide-thiourea fluorescent probe PBI-BTB is achieved for rapid detection of Hg2+ in a DMSO/H2O (5/1, v/v) solution through a typical Hg2+-promoting desulfurization reaction, which has been investigated through Job's plot titration, FT-IR, 1H NMR and HRMS analysis. A remarkable fluorescence emission enhancement at 540 and 580 nm is observed in the presence of Hg2+, which is visible to the naked eye with high selectivity and sensitivity. Moreover, probe PBI-BTB combined strong anti-interference recognition with short response time (< 1 min). The rapid fluorescence response with low limit of detection (0.35 μM) in a wide pH range of 3.0-11.0 makes PBI-BTB a promising candidate for detection of Hg2+ without any buffer system. Furthermore, the practicability of probe PBI-BTB upon the Hg2+ recognition in human liver cancer cells (HepG-2) has been studied through fluorescent live cell imaging which reveals the probe's low toxicity to organism as well as the favorable cell permeability of PBI-BTB for detecting Hg2+ in biological systems.

Abstract
Azulene is a bicyclic aromatic chromophore that absorbs in the visible region. Its absorption maximum undergoes a hypsochromic shift if a conjugated electron-withdrawing group is introduced at the C1 position. This fact can be exploited in the design of a colorimetric chemodosimeter that functions by the transformation of a dithioacetal to the corresponding aldehyde upon exposure to Hg2+ ions. This chemodosimeter exhibits good chemoselectivity over other metal cations, and responds with an unambiguous colour change clearly visible to the naked eye. Its synthesis is concise and its ease of use makes it appropriate in resource-constrained environments, for example in determing mercury content of drinking water sources in the developing world.

Abstract
Heavy metal ion pollution is a severe problem in environmental protection and especially in human health due to their bioaccumulation in organisms. Mercury (II) (Hg2+), even at low concentrations, can lead to DNA damage and give permanent harm to the central nervous system by easily passing through biological membranes. Therefore, sensitive detection and monitoring of Hg2+ is of particular interest with significant specificity. In this review, aptamer-based strategies in combination with nanostructures as well as several other strategies to solve addressed problems in sensor development for Hg2+ are discussed in detail. In particular, the analytical performance of different aptamer and oligonucleotide-based strategies using different signal improvement approaches based on nanoparticles were compared within each strategy and in between. Although quite a number of the suggested methodologies analyzed in this review fulfills the standard requirements, further development is still needed on real sample analysis and analytical performance parameters.

Abstract
Though it has not been shown to deliver any biological importance, mercuric(II) ion (Hg2+) is a deleterious cation which poses grievous effects to the human body and/or the ecosystem, hence, the need for its sensitive and selective monitoring in both environmental and biological systems. Over the years, there has been a great deal of work in the use of fluorescent, colourimetric, and/or ratiometric probes for Hg2+ recognition. Essentially, the purpose of this review article is to give an overview of the advances made in the constructions of such probes based on the works reported in the period from 2011 to 2019. Discussion in this review work has been tailored to the kinds of fluorophore scaffolds used for the constructions of the probes reported. Selected examples of probes under each fluorophore subcategory were discussed with mentions of the typically determined parameters in an analytical sensing operation, including modulation in fluorescence intensity, optimal pH, detection limit, and association constant. The environmental and biological application ends of the probes were also touched where necessary. Important generalisations and conclusions were given at the end of the review. This review article highlights 196 references.

Abstract
The widespread contamination and high poisonousness have created significant concerns and thus demands for facile, rapid and selective monitoring of trace Hg2+. Inspired from the unique aggregation-induced emission (AIE) feature, in the current study, novel tetraphenylethylene (TPE) derivatives are prepared containing sulfonic groups for water solubility modulation and carboxyl dithioacetals for Hg2+ sensing. The TPE derivatives are grafted on electrospun fiber as test papers to initiate the AIE activities, while the Hg2+-specific cleavage of dithioacetal groups leads to the release of TPE derivatives and fluorescence turn-off. The decrease in the fluorescence intensities of fibrous mats could be fitted with Hg2+ levels for quantitative analysis, and the fibrous mats turn from green to bluish-green and then to blue in the presence of different Hg2+ levels. The limit of detection (LOD) reaches as low as 20 nM Hg2+, satisfying the threshold detection in drinking water, and the Hg2+ sensing indicates negligible interference from other metal ions and pH variations. The detected Hg2+ levels in lake water are consistent with the added amount with a recovery rate of over 98 %. It demonstrates a feasible strategy to integrate Hg2+-cleavable AIE probes on fibrous strips for real-time, highly specific and naked-eye detection of trace Hg2+.

Abstract
Hypochlorite (ClO-) is a highly reactive oxygen species that plays an important role in resistance to attacks by microorganisms. Herein, we report the preparation of a fluorescence probe (NIB-M) through the integration of a naphthalimide moiety and ClO- to capture diaminomaleonitrile and employ it for the aggregation-induced emission-based (AIE-based) monitoring of ClO-. In the presence of ClO-, NIB-M undergoes sequential nucleophilic substitution and HCl elimination reactions that allow it to possess high selectivity, a fast response, and a low detection limit (0.032 μM). Due to the good AIE properties of the parent molecule, a ClO- test board was facilely prepared by loading NIB-M on a Whatman paper strip-based portable device. The test plate can conveniently and sensitively detect hypochlorite onsite. In addition, the NIB-M probe was used for the imaging of exogenous/endogenous ClO- inside living cells.

Abstract
We report a new 7-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1, 3-diazolyl (NBD)-based chemosensor containing a piperazine derivative, NBDP, for detection of mercury ions in almost 100% aqueous medium. The chemosensor shows sensing exclusively toward Hg2+ with a switch-on fluorescence response at 543 nm, which could be attributed to the blocking of PET (photo-induced electron transfer) process upon complexation with mercury ions. The molar ratio of Hg(Ⅱ) to NBDP in the complex is 1:1 based on the Job's plot and HRMS studies. Optimized configurations of NBDP and NBDP-Hg2+ complexes were simulated by means of DFT calculations. The reversible fluorescence response with low detection limit (19.2 nM) in the pH range of 6.0-7.5 renders NBDP a promising candidate for Hg2+ detection in neutral aqueous environments. For the practical application of the chemosensor, test strips were successfully fabricated for rapid detection of Hg2+ ions. Moreover, the utility of NBDP showing the mercury recognition in Human liver cancer cells (SMMC-7721) and zebrafish as well as in live tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana has been demonstrated as monitored by fluorescence imaging.

Urolithin A and B Derivatives as ON-OFF Selective Fluorescent Sensors for Iron(III). J Fluoresc 2020; 30:113-120.

Abstract
The detection and sensing of environmentally crucial metal ions has always been of great significance in various fields such as biological and environmental cycles. Our previous studies have indicated a new coumarin based lactone, Urolithin B (i.e., 3-Hydroxy[c]chromen-6-one) as a potent fluorescent probe for the selective detection of Iron (III). In order to question the extension of this application to other urolithins, we have synthesized the major urolithins that humans are exposed to through regular diet. Following the structure identifying studies, the compounds were tested in fluorescence titration to investigate their interaction with various metals. The results have indicated that each title compound is selective to interact with Iron (III) in ON-OFF mode, independent from the presence of another metal. Similar to the previous findings, the Job's plots displaying the ratio of complex formation 3:2 UROs:Fe3+ have indicated the significance of the lactone group solely.

Abstract
In recent years, the research on fluorescent probes has developed rapidly. Coumarin fluorescent probes have also been one of the hot topics in recent years. For the synthesis and application of coumarin fluorescent probes, great progress has been made. Coumarin fluorescent probes have become more and more widely used in biochemistry, environmental protection, and disease prevention, and have broad prospects. This review introduces the three main light emitting mechanisms (PET, ICT, FRET) of fluorescent probes, and enumerates some probes based on this light emitting mechanism. In terms of the synthesis of coumarin fluorescent probes, the existing substituents on the core of coumarin compounds were modified. Based on the positions of the modified substituents, some of the fluorescent probes reported in the past ten years are listed. Most of the fluorescent probes are formed by modifying the 3 and 7 position substituents on the mother nucleus, and the 4 and 8 position substituents are relatively less modified. In terms of probe applications, the detection and application of coumarin fluorescent probes for Cu2+, Hg2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, pH, environmental polarity, and active oxygen and sulfide in the past ten years are mainly introduced. In recent years, the research on fluorescent probes has developed rapidly.![]()

Abstract
A series of new ruthenium(II) polypyridine complexes appending with thioether groups were designed, synthesized and characterized. The sensing ability of the complexes toward mercury ions were studied by electronic absorption and emission spectra, and the reaction of the complexes with mercury ions were also confirmed by ESI mass spectroscopy and 1HNMR spectroscopy. The thioether groups would react with mercury ion fast to form aldehyde group leading to the significant change in the spectra. The color of the complex changed from yellow to orange after addition of mercury ions, and the color of the emission changed from red orange to dark red with a large red shift (~80 nm). Importantly, these kinds of ruthenium(II) complexes show a unique recognition of mercury ions over other metal ions. The complexes with more thioether groups also showed a better sensitivity toward mercury ions, this is good strategy for the further design of the new phosphorescent probes for sensing of mercury ions.

Abstract
A new 9,9'-bianthracene-based thiosemicarbazone (D1) has been successfully synthesized and utilized for chemosensors. The properties of D1 were systematically investigated by UV-Vis, fluorescence titration and theoretical calculations. As a result, D1 exhibits a characteristic fluorescence quenching phenomenon in the presence of Hg2+ or Ag+ compared to other metal cations (Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ba2+, Al3+, Zn2+, Fe2+, Pb2+, Cu2+, Co2+, Cd2+, Ni2+ and Mn2+). The detection limits of Hg2+ and Ag+ reach 6.62×10-7M and 1.99×10-5M, respectively. This is mainly attributed to the Hg2+ (or Ag+) forms a stable five-membered ring with the N atom in Schiff base CN and the S atom in thiourea. The results suggest that the probe D1 is a promising candidate for chemosensors in aqueous media due to its highly selectivity for Hg2+ and Ag+.

Abstract
Mercury is a highly toxic environmental pollutant that negatively affects human health. Thus, an in vivo method for noninvasive imaging of mercury(ii) and visualization of its accumulation within living systems would be advantageous. Herein, we describe a reaction-based bioluminescent probe for detection of mercury(ii) in vitro and accumulation in vivo. The application of this probe would help to shed light on the intricate contributions of mercury(ii) to various physiological and pathological processes.
