Abstract
Two helical Schiff base compounds (H4TPA and H4TPE) containing a triphenylamine (TPA) or tetraphenylethylene (TPE) scaffold were successfully synthesized and characterized. Both H4TPA and H4TPE exhibited typical aggregation-induced emission characteristics in the mixed solvent of THF/H2O. The two compounds also showed high selectivity and sensitivity for the recognition of Cu2+ over other ions in THF/HEPES (1:4, V/V, pH = 7.4, 2.0 × 10-5 M), and could be used as turn-off fluorescent probes for Cu2+. The stoichiometric ratios and association constants were estimated via Job's plots and UV-vis spectra titration, and the detection limits of H4TPA and H4TPE toward Cu2+ were calculated to be 2.41 × 10-7 M and 1.38 × 10-7 M, respectively. Besides, the crystal structure of the complex obtained from the interaction of H4TPA with Cu2+ well illustrated the binding modes, which helped us understand the Cu2+ recognition mechanism of H4TPA and H4TPE. Moreover, the detection of Cu2+ and spiked recovery experiments were carried out, which indicated that the two probes can be applied to Cu2+ detection in real samples with satisfactory recoveries.

Abstract
Functionalization is a major challenge for the application of photoswitches. With the aim to develop novel bis-functional azo photoswitches with stationary photophysical properties, a series of phenolylazoindole derivatives were designed, synthesized, and characterized via NMR spectroscopy studies and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Herein, UV/Vis and 1H NMR spectra revealed that the photostationary state (PSS) proportions for PSScis and PSStrans were 76-80% and 68-81%, respectively. Furthermore, the thermal half-lives (t1/2) of compounds A2-A4 and B2 ranged from 0.9 to 5.3 h, affected by the diverse substituents at the R1 and R2 positions. The results indicated that azo photoswitches based on the phenolylazoindole scaffold had stationary photophysical properties and wouldn't be excessively affected by modifying the functional groups. Compounds A4 and B2, which were modified with an aryl group, also exhibited fluorescence emission properties (the quantum yields of A4 and B2 were 2.32% and 13.34%) through the modification of the flexible conjugated structure (benzene) at the R2 position. Significantly, compound C1 was obtained via modification with a pharmacophore in order to acquire antifungal activities against three plant fungi, Rhizoctonia solani (R. solani), Botrytis cinerea (B. cinerea), and Fusarium graminearum (F. graminearum). Strikingly, the inhibitory activity of the cis-isomer of compound C1towards R. solani (53.3%) was significantly better than that of the trans-isomer (34.2%) at 50 μg mL-1. In order to further reveal the antifungal mechanism, molecular docking simulations demonstrated that compound C1 effectively integrates into the cavity of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH); the optically controlled cis-isomer showed a lower binding energy with SDH than that of the trans-isomer. This research confirmed that phenolylazoindole photoswitches can be appropriately applied as molecular regulatory devices and functional photoswitch molecules via bis-functionalization.

Abstract
In order to exploit novel multi-stimuli responsive fluorescent materials, a series of novel fluorescent molecules of salicylic acid derivatives were designed and synthesized via introducing pyrazole or cyclopentane to the salicylic acid scaffold through a special Schiff base-acylhydrazone, and the molecular structures of representative compounds A2 and A4 were verified via single crystal X-ray diffraction. All title molecules could exhibit obvious solvatofluorochromism from cyan to indigo in several solutions with different polarity. The fluorescence titration data exhibited compound A2 and complex A2-Cu2+ with prime detection limits to Cu2+ (0.24 μM) and S2- ions (2.83 μM). The sensitive recognition of A2 to trifluoroacetic (TFA) and A2-TFA to triethylamine (TEA) were also confirmed via fluorescent titration experiments in various solutions, respectively. What's more, the 1H NMR and UV/Vis absorption spectra further explained the mechanism between molecules and ions or molecules and TFA/TEA. Besides, the photoswitching properties of the compounds A2 and A3 could be demonstrated via the irradiation of special wavelength light or heating accompanied with changes in quantum yields. In addition, these phenomena of multiple responses were explained via Density Functional Theory (DFT) based on the Gaussian calculations. Thus, this work provided a preliminary basis for the research of multi-stimuli responsive fluorescent molecules with photoswitching properties.

Abstract
The impact of π-π stacking interactions on photo-physical properties of hydroxyanthraquinone (HA) has been investigated using the density functional (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations in the gas phase and solution media. The vertical transition is characterized with strong HOMO-LUMO transition in the complexes. The intramolecular hydrogen bond (IHB) made in the HA and π-π complexes is strengthened after S0 → S1 excitation, such that the proton transfers is facilitated in the first excited state. The complexes exhibit an exothermic excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) in the solution media, which is a barrierless process for some complexes. The π-π stacking interaction affects the absorption and emission bands of HA, and provides a large Stokes shift. This indicates the desirable fluorescence properties of π-π complexes, which are cross-validated by geometries, potential energy curve scannings, electronic and vibrational spectra, and frontier molecular orbital analyses.

Abstract
The two-step synthesis, structural, and photophysical properties of a series of heteroaryl-substituted bis-anil derivatives presenting aggregation-induced emission (AIE) coupled with an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process is described. The fluorescence color of the aggregates can be fine tuned by changing the electronic nature of the peripheral substitution, leading to a wide range of emission wavelengths (from green to the near infra-red). Moreover, upon introduction of strong electron-withdrawing groups such as cyano (CN), a competition between ESIPT and deprotonation is observed leading to the emission of the anionic species at low water percentage. This observation led to the synthesis of an additional mixed AIE fluorophore, functionalized by methoxy groups on one side and cyano groups on the other side. Upon addition of water, this dye displays first anionic emission, followed by typical AIE/ESIPT red fluorescence upon formation of the aggregates. TD-DFT calculations on selected AIE dyes were performed to rationalize the nature of the emissive transitions in these derivatives.

Abstract
Novel and portable cotton swab-based fluorometry was constructed for the first time for 3-aminosalicylic acid (3-ASA) and 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) detection. It was carried out by fluorescence enhancement on silver (Ag)-doped black phosphorus quantum dots (Ag@BPQD). Ag@BPQD were prepared from AgNO3 and bulk black phosphorus in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution by solvothermal decomposition after mechanical exfoliation. Ag@BPQD show blue fluorescence with a quantum yield (QY) of 2.43%. In the presence of Ag@BPQD, 3-ASA exhibited bright blue fluorescence (λex = 328 nm, λem = 448 nm). The fluorescence of 5-ASA was also enhanced significantly and exhibited bright green emission (λex = 328 nm, λem = 484 nm). The linear range of 3-ASA is 0-90 μM with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.10 μM, relative standard deviation (RSD) ≤ 2.04%, and a recovery range of 98.0-104.3%. The linear range of 5-ASA is 0-120 μM with a LOD of 0.12 μM, RSD ≤ 1.34%, and a recovery range of 98.0-101.3%. When 3-ASA and 5-ASA were mixed in different ratios, the fluorescence showed different colors. The possible mechanism of the interaction between 3-ASA (or 5-ASA) and Ag@BPQD may be ascribed to the generation of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer. To realize convenient detection of 3-ASA and 5-ASA, a Ag@BPQD portable sensing method using cotton swabs were built. The proposed approach provides the detection of 3-ASA and 5-ASA in environmental and biological samples with high efficiency, accuracy and portability.

Abstract
Introducing methoxy substituent into triphenylamine-acetophenone based donor-π-acceptor fluorophore, 3-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-1-phenylprop-2-en-1-one (1), produced strong solvatofluorochromism including white light emission, fluorescent polymorphs and mechano-responsive fluorescence switching. The unsubstituted and methoxy substituted compounds displayed strong solvent polarity mediated tunable emission in the solution. Interestingly, 3-(4-(diphenylamino)phenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (2) and 3-(4-(diphenylamino)-2-methoxyphenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (3) showed single molecule white light emission in DMSO and ethanol, respectively. 1-3 exhibited strong green/yellow fluorescence in the solid-state (Quantum yield (Φf) = 10 to 23%). 2 produced fluorescent polymorphs (green (2-G) and yellow (2-Y). Single crystal structural analysis revealed that donor and acceptor phenyl units adopted coplanar conformation in 2-G and 3 whereas twisted molecular conformation in 1 and 2-Y. Further, 2-G exhibited π…π interactions facilitated isolated dimers whereas 2-Y showed well separated molecules in the crystal lattice. Aggregation induced emission (AIE) studies showed morphological transformation induced fluorescence tuning for 2. The intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) from TPA to acetophenone was confirmed by computational studies. Mechanofluorochromic (MFC) studies of 1 showed only slight reduction of intensity without modulating fluorescence wavelength significantly but 2 and 3 exhibited visible emissive colour change from yellow to green and vice versa by crushing and heating. Both 2 and 3 also exhibited self-reversible fluorescence switching that was confirmed by PXRD pattern. Thus, methoxy group introduction resulted in obtaining white light emitting fluorescence molecules in the solution state and self-reversible fluorescence switching materials.

Abstract
A new design was applied for the facile synthesis of pure organic photoluminescent molecules with dual excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) sites. In this novel class of emitters, full-color panel emission from blue, green, and yellow to red, including white light, can be achieved in different solvents as modulated by the enol-keto(1st)-keto(2nd) tautomer emissions. A comprehensive transient photophysical study verifies that keto(1st) and keto(2nd) have a precursor (<0.8 ps)-successor (∼20 ps)-relayed absorbance relationship, and then a fast equilibrium between the two is established, resulting in dual emissions in the nanosecond scale (∼1900 ps). Through the research on copper ions' selective PL response, the dual-ESIPT mechanism was further verified; in addition, the study of solid-state PL changes upon the stimulus of organic vapor manifests the potential application sensitivity of the molecules as dual-ESIPT sensors. Theoretical results including reaction potential energy surface analyses manifest the fact that dual-proton transfer goes along a sequential route with a smaller energy barrier, firmly supporting the experimental results. An intrinsic system that undergoes intramolecular double proton relayed transfer is thus established for the achievement of much broadened optical responses and full-color display, providing reference for the design and application of advanced dual-ESIPT optical materials.

Abstract
Deciphering the dynamics of intracellular organelles has gained immense attention due to their subtle control over diverse, complex biological processes such as cellular metabolism, energy homeostasis, and autophagy. In this context, molecular materials, including small-organic fluorescent probes and their supramolecular self-assembled nano-/microarchitectures, have been employed to explore the diverse intracellular biological events. However, only a handful of fluorescent probes and self-assembled emissive structures have been successfully used to track different organelle's movements, circumventing the issues related to water solubility and long-term photostability. Thus, the water-soluble molecular fluorescent probes and the water-dispersible supramolecular self-assemblies have emerged as promising candidates to explore the trafficking of the organelles under diverse physiological conditions. In this review, we have delineated the recent progress of fluorescent probes and their supramolecular self-assemblies for the elucidation of the dynamics of diverse cellular organelles with a special emphasis on lysosomes, lipid droplets, and mitochondria. Recent advancement in fluorescence lifetime and super-resolution microscopy imaging has also been discussed to investigate the dynamics of organelles. In addition, the fabrication of the next-generation molecular to supramolecular self-assembled luminogens for probing the variation of microenvironments during the trafficking process has been outlined.

Abstract
The development of fluorescence materials with switched on/off emission has attracted great attention owing to the potential application of these materials in chemical sensing. In this work, the photophysical properties of a series of original 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)pyrimidines were thoroughly studied. The compounds were prepared by following well-established and straightforward methodologies and showed very little or null photoluminescence both in solution and in the solid state. This absence of emission can be explained by a fast proton transfer from the OH group to the nitrogen atoms of the pyrimidine ring to yield an excited tautomer that deactivates through a nonradiative pathway. The key role of the OH group in the emission quenching was demonstrated by the preparation of 2'-unsubstituted derivatives, all of which exhibited violet or blue luminescence. Single crystals of some compounds suitable for an X-ray diffraction analysis could be obtained, which permitted us to investigate inter- and intramolecular interactions and molecular packing structures. The protonation of the pyrimidine ring by an addition of trifluoroacetic acid inhibited the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process, causing a reversible switch on fluorescence response detectable by the naked eye. This acidochromic behavior allows 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)pyrimidines to be used as solid-state acid-base vapor sensors and anticounterfeiting agents. Extensive density functional theory and its time-dependent counterpart calculations at the M06-2X/6-31+G** level of theory were performed to rationalize all the experimental results and understand the impact of protonation on the different optical transitions.

Abstract
Small organic luminogens, owing to their contrasting stimuli-responsive fluorescence in solution along with strong emission in aggregated and solidstates, have been employed in optoelectronic devices, sensors, and bioimaging. Pyrene derivatives usually exhibit strong fluorescence and concentration-dependent excimer/aggregate emission in solution. However, the impacts of microenvironments on the monomer and aggregate emission bands and their relative intensities in solution, solid, and supramolecular aggregates are intriguing. The present study delineates a trade-off between the monomer and aggregate emissions of a pyrene-benzophenone derivative (ABzPy) in solution, in the solid-state, and in nanoaggregates through a combined spectroscopic and microscopic approach. The impact of external stimuli (viscosity, pH) on the aggregate emission was demonstrated using steady-state and time-resolved spectroscopy, including fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and fluorescence anisotropy decay analysis. The aggregate formation was noticed at a higher concentration (>10 μM) in solution, at 77 K (5 μM), and in the solid-state due to the π-π stacking interactions (3.6 Å) between two ABzPy molecules. In contrast, no aggregate formation was observed in the viscous medium as well as in a micellar environment even at a higher concentration of ABzPy (50 μM). The crystal structure analysis further shed light on the intermolecular hydrogen-bonding-assisted solid-state emission, which was found to be highly sensitive toward external stimuli like pH and mechanical forces. The broad emission band comprising both monomer and aggregate in the aqueous dispersion of nanoaggregates was used for the specific cellular imaging of lysosomes and lipid droplets, respectively.

Abstract
NIR-emissive ESIPT active PBI-keto/enol assemblies have been developed for the detection of 2, 6-dichloro-4-nitroaniline (DCN). These assemblies show 'on-on' optical response towards DCN due to combined ESIPT-AIEE phenomenon with a detection limit of 1.65 nM. The potential of PBI-keto/enol assemblies to detect DCN has also been explored in grapes juice/grape residue, and soil for six consecutive days. Further, the biological applications of PBI-keto/enol assemblies to detect DCN in blood serum and to image DCN in live cells and to restrict the DCN induced cell death has been demonstrated in MG-63 cell lines.

Abstract
Fluorescent biomedical materials can visualize subcellular structures and therapy processes in vivo. The aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon helps suppress the quenching effect in the aggregated state suffered by conventional fluorescent materials, thereby contributing to design strategies for fluorescent biomedical materials. Photoresponsive biomedical materials have attracted attention because of the inherent advantages of light; i.e., remote control, high spatial and temporal resolution, and environmentally friendly characteristics, and their combination with AIE facilitates development of fluorescent molecules with efficient photochemical reactions upon light irradiation. In this review, organic compounds with AIE features for biomedical applications and design strategies for photoresponsive AIE luminogens (AIEgens) are first summarized briefly. Applications are then reviewed, with the employment of photoresponsive and AIE-active molecules for photoactivation imaging, super-resolution imaging, light-induced drug delivery, photodynamic therapy with photochromic behavior, and bacterial targeting and killing being discussed at length. Finally, the future outlook for AIEgens is considered with the aim of stimulating innovative work for further development of this field.

Abstract
Solvent effects usually have an essential effect on excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) processes and fluorescence mechanism. This contribution presents new insights into a newly synthesized compound, namely, 10-hydroxy-11H-benzo [b]fluoren-11-one (10-HHBF), and its analogue 1-hydroxy-11H-benzo [b]fluoren-11-one (1-HHBF), which exhibit single-fluorescence properties in protic solvents (methanol, MeOH), using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The results established four schemes, namely, MeOH-1, MeOH-2, MeOH-3, and MeOH-4, for 1-HHBF and 10-HHBF in MeOH. Absorption and emission spectra showed that the 1-HHBF and 10-HHBF at the conformation MeOH-2, MeOH-3 and MeOH-4 were closer to the experimental values than those at the MeOH-1. Energy barriers indicate the possibility of the ESIPT and ESPT process in 1-HHBF and 10-HHBF under the four schemes. Moreover, reverse PT processes were easy to occur at the conformations of MeOH-2, MeOH-3, and MeOH-4 in the S1 state. Given the single-fluorescence properties of 1-HHBF and 10-HHBF in the experiment, the conformation MeOH-1 was excluded. Therefore, our contribution proved that MeOH-2, MeOH-3, and MeOH-4 might exist in single fluorescence, and the hydrogen bond at the MeOH-2 position plays a decisive role, indicating the intermolecular hydrogen bonding interaction on the acceptor atom will have a more significant impact on the fluorescence properties of the substance.

Abstract
Qualification and quantification of trace organic contaminants necessitates development of highly efficient sensing system, where excited-state inter-ligand proton transfer (ESILPT) provides a feasible pathway to construct efficient chemo-sensors. Herein, a strategically synthesized lanthanide complex, Eu(DBM)3(MeOH)3 (briefly as Eu-DBM-MeOH; DBM = dibenzoylmethane), features two-step ESILPT processes, along with modification on molecular structure and energy band. As a result, Eu-DBM-MeOH exhibits excellent photophysical properties with characteristic luminescence of Eu3+ ion. Benefiting from these merits, the Eu-DBM-MeOH complex acts as ultra-sensitive chemo-sensor toward nanomolar-level nitrofuran antibiotics (nitrofurazone and nitrofurantoin) in water, by disrupting ESILPT processes. Combining the advantages on photophysical property and luminescent sensitivity, ESILPT-active compounds are expected to widen and deepen the research on complex-based luminophores, being potentially useful in trace detection and biological imaging.

Abstract
Functionalized materials with reversible color switching are highly attractive in many application fields, especially as rewritable media for information storage. It is critical yet challenging to develop a cost-effective strategy for the fabrication of stimulus-responsive chromogenic systems. Herein, we present a versatile dip-coating approach to fabricate robust smart textile with acid/base-driven chromotropic capability. Owing to the introduction of novel maleimide-based copolymers bearing azobenzene derivative moieties, smart textiles possess rapid color switching between yellow and orange-red, which is triggered by acid-base stimulations with the resulting reversible protonation/deprotonation of maleimide moieties. As a proof of concept of the application of the smart textile for high-performance rewritable media, various rewritable elaborate patterns can be fast trifluoroacetic acid-printed/triethylamine-erased (within 20 s) with excellent cycling stability and long legible duration (>30 days). Meanwhile, the smart textile can be employed as a visual sensor for the detection of hydrogen fluoride gas leakage. It is highlighted that the as-prepared robust smart textiles with superhydrophobic surfaces have excellent antifouling properties and chemical/mechanical stabilities, which can tolerate harsh environmental conditions and repetitive mechanical deformation. The robust smart textiles with simple low-cost large-scale production may find more advanced potential applications besides information storage and sensors demonstrated.

Suzuki Y. Development of Lectin Modified Fluorescent Magnetic Particles for Highly Sensitive Detection of Glycoconjugates. SENSORS 2021; 21:s21165512. [PMID: 34450954 PMCID: PMC8400584 DOI: 10.3390/s21165512] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2021] [Revised: 08/13/2021] [Accepted: 08/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
I conducted this study to develop an improved method for glycome detection using fluorescent magnetic beads, whose surfaces were modified using lectins, for the highly sensitive detection of saccharides or glycoproteins via fluorescence quenching using a novel fluorescence emitter and quencher pair. The emitter (Cy3 fluorophore) was incorporated into magnetic beads, and a fluorescence quencher (cyanopyranyl group) was bound to glycomes via covalent bonding. The fluorescence intensities of fluorescent magnetic beads containing lectins decreased specifically in the presence of glycomes, which was a result of fluorescence quenching from Cy3 to cyanopyranyl groups due to the formation of a stable complex between lectins and glycome. Fluorescence intensities were plotted as a function of glycoprotein concentration, and good linear relationships were observed. This method enabled the fluorescent reading-out of a series of lectin-glycome interactions on the basis of recognition selectivity and affinity of immobilized lectins without tedious washing processes. Moreover, a simple profiling process was performed using this assay for diverse glycoconjugates, which not only included simple saccharides but also glycoproteins and glycome in cell lysates. These results clearly indicate that the combination of magnetic beads with the novel emitter-quencher pair enabled the highly sensitive detection of lectin-glycome interactions.

Abstract
The concept of aggregation-induced emission represents a means to rationalise photoluminescence of usually nonfluorescent excimers in solid-state materials. In this publication, we study the photophysical properties of selected diaminodicyanoquinone (DADQ) derivatives in the solid state using a combined approach of experiment and theory. DADQs are a class of high-dipole organic chromophores promising for applications in non-linear optics and light-harvesting devices. Among the compounds investigated, we find both aggregation-induced emission and aggregation-caused quenching effects rationalised by calculated energy transfer rates. Analysis of fluorescence spectra and lifetime measurements provide the interesting result that (at least) two emissive species seem to contribute to the photophysical properties of DADQs. The main emission peak is notably broadened in the long-wavelength limit and exhibits a blue-shifted shoulder. We employ high-level quantum-chemical methods to validate a molecular approach to a solid-state problem and show that the complex emission features of DADQs can be attributed to a combination of H-type aggregates, monomers, and crystal structure defects.

Abstract
Selective and sensitive moisture sensors have attracted immense attention due to their ability to monitor the humidity content in industrial solvents, food products, etc., for regulating industrial safety management. Herein, a hydroxy naphthaldehyde-based piezochromic luminogen, namely, 1-{[(2-hydroxyphenyl)imino]methyl}naphthalen-2-ol (NAP-1), has been synthesized and its photophysical and molecular sensing properties have been investigated by means of various spectroscopic tools. Owing to the synergistic effect of both aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) along with the restriction of C=N isomerization, the probe shows bright yellowish-green-colored keto emission with high quantum yield after the interaction with a trace amount of water. This makes NAP-1 a potential sensor for monitoring water content in the industrial solvents with very low detection limits of 0.033, 0.032, 0.034, and 0.033% (v/v) from tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetone, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and methanol, respectively. The probe could be used in the food industry to detect trace moisture in the raw food samples. The reversible switching behavior of NAP-1 makes it suitable for designing an INHIBIT logic gate with an additional application in inkless writing. In addition, an Internet of Things-(IoT) based prototype device has been proposed for on-site monitoring of the moisture content by a smartphone via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. The aggregated probe also has the ability to recognize Cu2+ from a purely aqueous medium via the chelation-enhanced quenching (CHEQ) mechanism, leading to ∼84% fluorescence quenching with a Stern-Volmer quenching constant of 1.46 × 104 M-1 and with an appreciably low detection threshold of 57.2 ppb, far below than recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA). The spectroscopic and theoretical calculations (density functional theory (DFT), time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT), and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis) further empower the understanding of the mechanistic course of the interaction of the host-guest recognition event.

Abstract
We fabricated an inorganic-organic hybrid upconversion nanoprobe for the ratiometric detection of aliphatic biogenic amines in water. The hybrid nanoprobe comprises a thiophene-based acceptor-π-donor-π-acceptor organic fluorescent dye, TDPM, and near-infrared light-absorbing upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs). The organic dye was loaded into a mesoporous silica-coated UCNP (UCNP@mSiO2) matrix to circumvent the issues of water insolubility and higher energy excitation. Yb3+ and Tm3+-doped UCNPs exhibited dual emission bands at 475 and 645 nm upon excitation with a 980 nm laser. The significant spectral overlap between the absorption and the emission bands of TDPM and UCNPs, respectively, at 475 nm led to resonance energy transfer (RET) from the UCNPs to TDPM resulting in the quenching of the UCNP emission. In contrast, 'turn-on' emission was noticeable with the addition of aliphatic biogenic amines due to an inhibition of the RET. The emission at 645 nm remained unaffected during the energy transfer process making the hybrid probe a versatile platform for the ratiometric detection of different aliphatic biogenic amines. Furthermore, we explored the sensing of aliphatic biogenic amines in adulterated milk and rotten fish. The unique material attributes demonstrated in the current study hold promise for further development of real-time sensors and switches based on hybrid upconversion nanoprobes.

Abstract
Supramolecular self-assembly of small organic molecules has emerged as a powerful tool to construct well-defined micro- and nanoarchitecture through fine-tuning a range of intermolecular interactions. The size, shape, and optical properties of these nanostructures largely depend on the specific assembly of the molecular building units, temperature and polarity of the medium, and external stimuli. The engineering of supramolecular self-assembled nanostructures with morphology-dependent tunable emission is in high demand due to the promising scope in nanodevices and molecular machines. However, probing the evolution of molecular aggregates from the solution and directing the self-assembly process in a pre-defined fashion are challenging. In the present study, we have deciphered the sequential evolution of supramolecular nanofibers from solution to spherical and oblong-shaped nanoparticles through the variation of solvent polarity, tuning the hydrophobic-hydrophilic interactions. An intriguing case of molecular self-assembly has been elucidated employing a newly designed π-conjugated thiophene derivative (TPAn) through a combination of steady-state absorption, emission measurements, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS), and electron microscopy. The FCS analysis and microscopy results revealed that the small-sized nanofibers in the dispersion further agglomerated upon solvent evaporation, resulting in a network of nanofibers. Stimuli-responsive reversible interconversion between a network of nanofibers and spherical nanoaggregates was probed both in dispersion and solvent-evaporated state. The evolution of organic nanofibers and a subtle control over the self-assembly process demonstrated in the current investigation provide a general paradigm to correlate the size, shape, and emission properties of fluorescent molecular aggregates in complex heterogeneous media, including a human cell.

Abstract
The crown-ether coordination compounds ZnX2(18-crown-6), EuX2(18-crown-6) (X: Cl, Br, I), MnI2(18-crown-6), Mn3Cl6(18-crown-6)2, Mn3I6(18-crown-6)2, and Mn2I4(18-crown-6) are obtained by ionic-liquid-based synthesis. Whereas MX2(18-crown-6) (M: Zn, Eu) show conventional structural motives, Mn3Cl6(18-crown-6)2, Mn3I6(18-crown-6)2, and Mn2I4(18-crown-6) exhibit unusual single MnX4 tetrahedra coordinated to the crown-ether complex. Surprisingly, some compounds show outstanding photoluminescence. Thus, rare Zn2+-based luminescence is observed and unexpectedly efficient for ZnI2(18-crown-6) with a quantum yield of 54%. Unprecedented quantum yields are also observed for Mn3I6(18-crown-6)2, EuBr2(18-crown-6), and EuI2(18-crown-6) with values of 98, 72, and 82%, respectively, which can be rationalized based on the specific structural features. Most remarkable, however, is Mn2I4(18-crown-6). Its specific structural features with finite sensitizer-activator couples result in an extremely strong emission with an outstanding quantum yield of 100%. Consistent with its structural features, moreover, anisotropic angle-dependent emission under polarized light and nonlinear optical (NLO) effects occur, including second-harmonic generation (SHG). The title compounds and their optical properties are characterized by single-crystal structure analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, chemical analysis, density functional theory (DFT) calculations, and advanced spectroscopic methods.

Abstract
We describe two novel fluorescent peptides (compounds 1 and 2) targeting oxytocin with a boron-dipyrromethenyl group as the fluorophore bound to an artificial peptide based on the oxytocin receptor, and their application for the analysis of oxytocin levels in human serum using nanometer-sized magnetic beads modified by fluorescent peptides (FMB-1 and FMB-2). Under the optimized experimental protocols, FMB-1 and FMB-2 emitted low levels of fluorescence but emitted much higher levels of fluorescence when associated with oxytocin. The detection limit of oxytocin by FMB-2 was 0.4 pM, which is approximately 37.5 times higher than that of conventional methods, such as ELISA. Using these fluorescent sensors, oxytocin was specifically detected over a wide linear range with high sensitivity, good reusability, stability, precision, and reproducibility. This fluorescent sensor-based detection system thus enabled the measurement of oxytocin levels in human serum, which has widespread applications for oxytocin assays across varied research fields.

Abstract
Porous organic frameworks (POFs) with a heteroatom rich ionic backbone have emerged as advanced materials for catalysis, molecular separation, and antimicrobial applications. The loading of metal ions further enhances Lewis acidity, augmenting the activity associated with such frameworks. Metal-loaded ionic POFs, however, often suffer from physicochemical instability, thereby limiting their scope for diverse applications. Herein, we report the fabrication of triaminoguanidinium-based ionic POFs through Schiff base condensation in a cost-effective and scalable manner. The resultant N-rich ionic frameworks facilitate selective CO2 uptake and afford high metal (Zn(ii): 47.2%) loading capacity. Owing to the ionic guanidinium core and ZnO infused mesoporous frameworks, Zn/POFs showed pronounced catalytic activity in the cycloaddition of CO2 and epoxides into cyclic organic carbonates under solvent-free conditions with high catalyst recyclability. The synergistic effect of infused ZnO and cationic triaminoguanidinium frameworks in Zn/POFs led to robust antibacterial (Gram-positive, Staphylococcus aureus and Gram-negative, Escherichia coli) and antiviral activity targeting HIV-1 and VSV-G enveloped lentiviral particles. We thus present triaminoguanidinium-based POFs and Zn/POFs as a new class of multifunctional materials for environmental remediation and biomedical applications.

Abstract
The design and construction of novel C3-symmetric triaminoguanidine-triphenylamine conjugate (L) has been demonstrated and it displays positive solvatochromic behaviour with an increase in solvent polarity. The probe L acts as a selective colorimetric sensor for Cu2+ ions over other metal ions. Further, it shows high selective and sensitive detection of Fe3+ ions through turn-on fluorescence response. Moreover, the detection limits for Cu2+ and Fe3+ ions were found to be within the allowable range of the World Health Organisation (30 μM). The real-time application of the probe was showed by paper strip experiments as well as detection of Fe3+ ions in pharmaceutical tablets.

Chiral Bent-Shaped Molecules Exhibiting Unusually Wide Range of Blue Liquid-Crystalline Phases and Multistimuli-Responsive Behavior. Chemistry 2020; 26:5859-5871. [PMID: 32083772 DOI: 10.1002/chem.201905707] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Revised: 02/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/11/2022]
Abstract
Recently, an unprecedented observation of polar order, thermochromic behavior, and exotic mesophases in new chiral, bent-shaped systems with a -CH3 moiety placed at the transverse position of the central core was reported. Herein, a homologous series of compounds with even-numbered carbon chains from n=4 to 18 were synthesized, in which -Cl was substituted for -CH3 at the kink position and a drastic modification in the phase structure of the bent-shaped molecule was observed. An unusual stabilization of the cubic blue phase (BP) over a wide range of 16.4 °C has been witnessed. Two homologues in this series (1-12 and 1-14) exhibit an interesting phase sequence consisting of BPI/II, chiral nematic, twist grain boundary, smectic A, and smectic X (SmX) phases. The higher homologues (1-16 and 1-18) stabilize the SmX phase enantiotropically over the entire temperature range. Crystal structure analysis confirmed the bent molecular architecture, with a bent angle of 148°, and revealed the presence of two different molecular conformations in an asymmetric unit of compound 1-4. A DFT study corroborated that the -Cl moiety at the central core of the molecule led to an increase in the dipole moment along the transverse direction, which, in turn, facilitated the unusual stabilization of frustrated structures. Crystal polymorphism has been evidenced in three homologues (1-10, 1-12, and 1-14) of the series. On the application of mechanical pressure through grinding, compound 1-10 transformed from a bright yellow crystalline solid to a dark orange-green amorphous solid, which reversed upon dropwise addition of dichloromethane, indicating reversible mechanochromism in this class of compounds. In addition, excellent thermochromic behavior has been observed for compound 1-10 with a controlled temperature-color combination.

Abstract
The increase in the use of bactericides is a matter of grave concern and a serious threat to human health. The present situation demands rapid and efficient detection and elimination of antibiotic-resistant microbes. Herein, we report the synthesis of a simple C3-symmetric molecular system (TGP) with an intrinsic positive charge through a single-step Schiff base condensation. In a water-dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent mixture (80:20 v/v), TGP molecules self-aggregate to form spherical nanoparticles with a positively charged surface that displays efficient fluorescence owing to the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon. Both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria could be effectively detected through "turn-off" fluorescence spectroscopy as the electrostatic interaction of the resultant nanoaggregates with the negatively charged bacterial surface induced quenching of fluorescence of the nanoparticles. The fluorescence analysis and steady-state lifetime studies of TGP nanoparticles suggest that a nonradiative decay through photoinduced electron transfer from the nanoparticles to the bacterial surface leads to effective fluorescence quenching. Further, the TGP nanoaggregates demonstrate potent antimicrobial activity against microbes such as multidrug-resistant bacteria and fungi at a concentration as low as 74 μg/mL. A combination of factors including ionic surface characteristics of the nanoparticles for strong electrostatic binding on the bacterial surface followed by possible photoinduced electron transfer from the nanoaggregates to the bacterial membrane and enhanced oxidative stress in the membrane resulting from reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is found accountable for the high antimicrobial activity of the TGP nanoparticles. The effective disruption of membrane integrity in both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria upon interaction with the nanoaggregates can be observed from field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) studies. The development of simple pathways for the molecular design of multifunctional broad-spectrum antimicrobial systems for rapid and real-time detection, wash-free imaging, and eradication of drug-resistant microbes might be crucial to combat pathogenic agents.

Abstract
Bendable (elastic and plastic) organic single crystals have been widely studied as emerging flexible materials with highly ordered packing structures. However, even though manifold bendable organic crystals have been recently reported, most of them bend in response to only one stimulus. Herein, we report an organic single crystal of (Z)-4-(1-cyano-2-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)vinyl)benzonitrile, which bends under external stress (physical process) and also hydrochloric acid atmosphere (chemical process). This observation indicates that a single organic crystal, whose structure has been optimized simultaneously at both the molecular and supramolecular levels, may display multiple crystal-bending modes. Furthermore, the crystals exhibit bright orange-yellow emission and can serve as an active low-loss optical waveguide in both the straight and the bent state, which indicates a potential optical application.

Abstract
Solid-state acid-responsive materials are promising for the tunability of their intrinsic properties. However, the relationship between molecular structure and emission shift as a response to acid stimuli has not been systematically studied. Herein, we report the effect of protonation and subsequent intramolecular hydrogen bonding on the photophysical properties of compounds (MPP-s, MPP-d, and MPP-d-CN) with different conjugation modes between the electron-donating dimethoxyl phenyl and the electron-withdrawing benzothiazole ring. The results established that the stronger the intramolecular charge transfer feature of the compound, the smaller is the emission shift after acid stimuli. Our studies also indicated that the conjugation mode significantly affected the solid-state packing mode: MPP-s and MPP-d tended to form dimers, while MPP-d-CN exhibited the strongest aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE). The exploration of structure-property relationship would provide experimental and theoretical guidance in designing acid-responsive molecular switches and developing high-performance AIEE-active luminogens.
