Abstract
Although transition metals constitute less than 0.1% of the total mass within a human body, they have a substantial impact on fundamental biological processes across all kingdoms of life. Indeed, these nutrients play crucial roles in the physiological functions of enzymes, with the redox properties of many of these metals being essential to their activity. At the same time, imbalances in transition metal pools can be detrimental to health. Modern analytical techniques are helping to illuminate the workings of metal homeostasis at a molecular and atomic level, their spatial localization in real time, and the implications of metal dysregulation in disease pathogenesis. Fluorescence microscopy has proven to be one of the most promising non-invasive methods for studying metal pools in biological samples. The accuracy and sensitivity of bioimaging experiments are predominantly determined by the fluorescent metal-responsive sensor, highlighting the importance of rational probe design for such measurements. This review covers activity- and binding-based fluorescent metal sensors that have been applied to cellular studies. We focus on the essential redox-active metals: iron, copper, manganese, cobalt, chromium, and nickel. We aim to encourage further targeted efforts in developing innovative approaches to understanding the biological chemistry of redox-active metals.

Host-guest interactions of coumarin-based 1,2-pyrazole using analytical and computational methods: Paper strip-based detection, live cell imaging, logic gates and keypad lock applications. Heliyon 2024; 10:e24077. [PMID: 38234888 PMCID: PMC10792585 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24077] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/03/2024] [Indexed: 01/19/2024] Open
Abstract
A novel Coumarin-based 1,2-pyrazole, HCPyTSC is synthesised and characterized. The chemosensor has been shown to have efficient colourimetric and fluorescence sensing capabilities for the quick and selective detection of fluoride and copper ions. At 376 and 430 nm, the HCPyTSC exhibits selective sensing for Cu2+ and F- ions. By examining the natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis and the potential energy curve (PES) of the ground state for the function of the C-H bond, it has been determined from the theoretical study at hand that the deprotonation was taken from the 'CH' proton of the pyrazole ring. For F- and Cu2+, the HCPyTSC detection limits were 4.62 nM and 15.36 nM, respectively. Similarly, the binding constants (Kb) for F- and Cu2+ ions in acetonitrile medium were found to be 2.06 × 105 M-1 and 1.88 × 105 M-1. Chemosensor HCPyTSC with and without F- and Cu2+ ions have an emission and absorption response that can imitate a variety of logic gates, including the AND, XOR, and OR gates. Additionally, a paper-based sensor strip with the HCPyTSC was created for use in practical, flexible F- sensing applications. The paper-based sensor was more effective in detecting F- than other anions. The effectiveness of HCPyTSC for the selective detection of F- in living cells as well as its cell permeability were examined using live-cell imaging in T24 cells.

Abstract
In this context, we used the multicomponent Chichibabin pyridine synthesis reaction to synthesize a novel di(thiophen-2-yl) substituted and pyrene-pyridine fluorescent molecular hybrid. The computational (DFT and TD-DFT) and experimental investigations were performed to understand the photophysical properties of the synthesized new structural scaffold. The synthesized ligand displays highly selective fluorescent sensing properties towards Fe3+ ions when compared to other competitive metal ions (Al3+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Co2+, Cr3+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Hg2+, Na+, Ni2+, Pb2+, Sr2+, Sn2+ and Zn2+). The photophysical properties studies reveal that the synthesized hybrid molecule has a binding constant of 2.30 × 103 M-1 with limit of detection (LOD) of 4.56 × 10-5 M (absorbance mode) and 5.84 × 10-5 M (emission mode) for Fe3+ ions. We believe that the synthesized pyrene-conjugated hybrid ligand can serve as a potential fluorescent chemosensor for the selective and specific detection of Fe3+ ions.

Synthesis of a novel hydrazone-based compound applied as a fluorescence turn-on chemosensor for iron(iii) and a colorimetric sensor for copper(ii) with antimicrobial, DFT and molecular docking studies. RSC Adv 2023; 13:23819-23828.

Abstract
Hydrazone-hydrazide-based linkers perform a crucial role in environmental as well as biological fields. Such linkers are employed to detect exact metal ions at a minute level; hence, numerous probes are available. Even though thiophene-based molecules have a unique position in the medicinal arena, only very few chemosensors are reported based on such a moiety. In this current work, a novel hydrazide-hydrazone-based fluorogenic molecule 5-bromo-2-hydroxy-N'-[(1E)-1-(thiophen-2-yl)ethylidene]benzohydrazide (L) has been successfully designed and synthesized. The sensing studies of L demonstrated a ratio metric as well as turn-on-enhanced fluorescence and colorimetric response toward Fe3+ and Cu2+ ions, respectively and it was observed to be insensitive toward various metal ions. The Job plots revealed that the binding stoichiometry of L and metal ions is 2 : 1. In addition, density functional theory (DFT) results strongly suggested that L can be used as a powerful colorimetric sensor for the detection of Cu2+ ions. In vitro antimicrobial activities of L were evaluated by disk diffusion and results revealed good antibacterial activities against E. coli. Further, molecular docking was executed with DNA gyrase (PDB ID: 1KZN) of E. coli and the calculated interaction energy value was found to be -7.7 kcal mol-1. Finally, molecular docking, fluorescence, colorimetry and the HOMO-LUMO energy gap of the compound can provide new insights into developing drugs and detecting metals in biomolecules.
