Abstract
Selective recognition of fructosyl amino acids in water by arylboronic acid-based receptors is a central field of modern supramolecular chemistry that impacts biological and medicinal chemistry. Fructosyl valine (FV) and fructosyl glycyl histidine (FGH) occur as N-terminal moieties of human glycated hemoglobin; therefore, the molecular design of biomimetic receptors is an attractive, but very challenging goal. Herein, we report three novel cationic Zn-terpyridine complexes bearing a fluorescent N-quinolinium nucleus covalently linked to three different isomers of strongly acidified phenylboronic acids (ortho-, 2Zn; meta-, 3Zn and para-, 4Zn) for the optical recognition of FV, FGH and comparative analytes (D-fructose, Gly, Val and His) in pure water at physiological pH. The complexes were designed to act as fluorescent receptors using a cooperative action of boric acid and a metal chelate. Complex 3Zn was found to display the most acidic -B(OH)2 group (pKa = 6.98) and exceptionally tight affinity for FV (K = 1.43 × 105 M-1) with a strong quenching analytical response in the micromolar concentration range. The addition of fructose and the other amino acids only induced moderate optical changes. On the basis of several spectroscopic tools (1H, 11B NMR, UV-Vis, and fluorescence titrations), ESI mass spectrometry, X-ray crystal structure, and DFT calculations, the interaction mode between 3Zn and FV is proposed in a 1 : 1 model through a cooperative two-point recognition involving a sp3 boronate-diol esterification with simultaneous coordination bonding of the carboxylate group of Val to the Zn atom. Fluorescence quenching is attributed to a static complexation photoinduced electron transfer mechanism as evidenced by lifetime experiments. The addition of FGH to 3Zn notably enhanced its emission intensity with micromolar affinity, but with a lower apparent binding constant than that observed for FV. FGH interacts with 3Zn through boronate-diol complexation and coordination of the imidazole ring of His. DFT-optimized structures of complexes 3Zn-FV and 3Zn-FGH show a picture of binding which shows that the Zn-complex has a suitable (B⋯Zn) distance to the two-point recognition with these analytes. Molecular recognition of fructosyl amino acids by transition-metal-based receptors has not been explored until now.

Abstract
Selective recognition of saccharides by phenylboronic dyes capable of functioning in aqueous conditions is a central topic of modern supramolecular chemistry that impacts analytical sciences and biological chemistry. Herein, a new dicationic diboronic acid structure 11 was synthesized, structurally described by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and studied in-depth as fluorescent receptor for six saccharides in pure water at pH = 7.4. This dicationic receptor 11 has been designed particularly to respond to sorbitol and involves two convergent and strongly acidified phenyl boronic acids, with a pKa of 6.6, that operate as binding sites. The addition of sorbitol in the micromolar concentration range to receptor 11 induces strong fluorescence change, but in the presence of fructose, mannitol, glucose, lactose and sucrose, only moderate optical changes are observed. This change in emission is attributed to a static complexation photoinduced electron transfer mechanism as evidenced by lifetime experiments and different spectroscopic tools. The diboronic receptor has a high affinity/selectivity to sorbitol (K = 31 800 M-1) over other saccharides including common interfering species such as mannitol and fructose. The results based on 1H, 11B NMR spectroscopy, high-resolution mass spectrometry and density functional theory calculations, support that sorbitol is efficiently bound to 11 in a 1 : 1 mode involving a chelating diboronate-sorbitol complexation. Since the experimental B⋯B distance (5.3 Å) in 11 is very close to the calculated distance from the DFT-optimized complex with sorbitol, the efficient binding is attributed to strong acidification and preorganization of boronic acids. These results highlight the usefulness of a new diboronic acid receptor with a strong ability for fluorescent recognition of sorbitol in physiological conditions.

Abstract
With their ubiquitous nature, bacteria have had a significant impact on human health and evolution. Though as commensals residing in/on our bodies several bacterial communities support our health in many ways, bacteria remain one of the major causes of infectious diseases that plague the human world. Adding to this, emergence of antibiotic resistant strains limited the use of available antibiotics. The current available techniques to prevent and control such infections remain insufficient. This has been proven during one of greatest pandemic of our generation, COVID-19. It has been observed that bacterial coinfections were predominantly observed in COVID-19 patients, despite antibiotic treatment. Such higher rates of coinfections in critical patients even after antibiotic treatment is a matter of concern. Owing to many reasons across the world drug resistance in bacteria is posing a major problem i. According to Center for Disease control (CDC) antibiotic report threats (AR), 2019 more than 2.8 million antibiotic resistant cases were reported, and more than 35,000 were dead among them in USA alone. In both normal and pandemic conditions, failure of identifying infectious agent has played a major role. This strongly prompts the need to improve upon the existing techniques to not just effective identification of an unknown bacterium, but also to discriminate normal Vs drug resistant strains. New techniques based on Aggregation Induced Emission (AIE) are not only simple and rapid but also have high accuracy to visualize infection and differentiate many strains of bacteria based on biomolecular variations which has been discussed in this chapter.

Abstract
Oxidative C-H/C-H coupling reactions of dipyrromethanes with azines in the presence of a heterophase oxidative photocatalytic system (O2/TiO2/visible light irradiation) were carried out. As a result of cyclization of obtained compounds with boron trifluoride etherate, new hetaryl-containing derivatives of 4,4-difluoro-4-boron-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene were synthesized. For the obtained compounds, absorption and luminescence spectra, quantum yields of luminescence as well as cyclic volt-amperograms were measured.

Abstract
Boronic acids reversibly and covalently bind to Lewis bases and polyols, which facilitated the development of a large number of chemical sensors to recognize carbohydrates, catecholamines, ions, hydrogen peroxide, and so on. However, as the binding mechanism of boronic acids and analytes is not very clear, it is still a challenge to discover sensors with high affinity and selectivity. In this review, boronic acid sensors with two recognition sites, including diboronic acid sensors, and monoboronic acid sensors having another group or binding moiety, are summarized. Owing to double recognition sites working synergistically, the binding affinity and selectivity of sensors can be improved significantly. This review may help researchers to sort out the binding rules and develop ideal boronic acid-based sensors.

Abstract
The novel Vial@FPBA strategy was established for a large-scale pharmacokinetic study of glycosides, during which glycosides were absorbed into a boronic acid-functionalized 96-well glass plate and directly desorbed for UHPLC-MS/MS analysis. Hence, specific and high-throughput glycoside enrichment was achieved simultaneously. The LODs were reduced up to 50 times compared to the case of the methanol method. Meanwhile, sample pre-processing time was greatly saved by skipping the protein sedimentation and supernatant concentration steps.

Abstract
A capacitive sensor for saccharide detection is described in this study. The detection is based on selective interaction between diols and aminophenylboronic acid (APBA) immobilized on a gold electrode. Glucose, fructose, and dextran (MW: 40 kDa) were tested with the system over wide concentration ranges (1.0 x 10-8 M - 1.0 x 10-3 M for glucose, 1.0 x 10-8 M - 1.0 x 10-2 M for fructose and 1.0 x 10-10 M - 1.0 x 10-5 M for dextran). The limits of detection (LODs) were 0.8 nM for glucose, 0.6 nM for fructose, and 13 pM for dextran. These data were comparable to the others reported previously. In order to demonstrate glycoprotein detection with the same sensor, human immunoglobulin G (IgG) as well as horseradish peroxidase were used as model analytes. The sensor responded to IgG in the concentration range of 1.0 x 10-13 M - 1.0 x 10-7 M with a LOD value of 16 fM. The performance of the assay of peroxidase was compared to a spectrophotometric assay by determining the enzymatic activity of a captured analyte. The results showed that the method might be useful for label-free, fast, and sensitive detection of saccharides as well as glycoproteins over a wide concentration range.

Abstract
Piperazine-based compounds bearing two phenylboronic acid or two benzoxaborole groups (PBPA and PBBB) were applied as dopamine receptors in polymeric membranes (PVC/DOS) of ion-selective electrodes. The potentiometric sensitivity and selectivity of the sensors towards dopamine were evaluated and compared with the results obtained for 2-phenylethylamine. Since the developed electrodes displayed strong interference from 2-phenylethylamine, single-molecule geometry optimizations were performed using the density functional theory (DFT) method in order to investigate the origin of dopamine/2-phenylethylamine selectivity. The results indicated that phenylboronic acid and benzoxaborole receptors bind dopamine mainly through the dative B⁻N bond (like 2-phenylethylamine) and the potentiometric selectivity is mainly governed by the higher lipophilicity of 2-phenylethylamine.

Abstract
A new class of biosensor molecules evoking fluorescent emission by rotation-restricted binding with bacteria was examined for its applicability in detecting live bacteria instantly. The fluorogens possessed multiple tetraphenylethene (TPE)-cored boronic acids to oligomerize through complexation with cis-diols on bacterial surfaces, resulting in aggregation-induced emission (AIE). The fluorogen having two boronic acid units discriminated between live and dead bacteria by showing AIE activity only with the latter. Live bacteria were instantly detected by consequent treatment with reagents of three and four di-boronates (which showed AIE activity with both live and dead bacteria). This phenomenon may lead to a practical method for live bacteria detection.

Abstract
Ginsenoside is a large family of triterpenoid saponins from Panax ginseng, which possesses various important biological functions. Due to the very similar structures of these complex glycoconjugates, it is crucial to develop a powerful analytic method to identify ginsenosides qualitatively or quantitatively. We herein report an eight-channel fluorescent sensor array as artificial tongue to achieve the discriminative sensing of ginsenosides. The fluorescent cross-responsive array was constructed by four boronlectins bearing flexible boronic acid moieties (FBAs) with multiple reactive sites and two linear poly(phenylene-ethynylene) (PPEs). An "on-off-on" response pattern was afforded on the basis of superquenching of fluorescent indicator PPEs and an analyte-induced allosteric indicator displacement (AID) process. Most importantly, it was found that the canonical distribution of ginsenoside data points analyzed by linear discriminant analysis (LDA) was highly correlated with the inherent molecular structures of the analytes, and the absence of overlaps among the five point groups reflected the effectiveness of the sensor array in the discrimination process. Almost all of the unknown ginsenoside samples at different concentrations were correctly identified on the basis of the established mathematical model. Our current work provided a general and constructive method to improve the quality assessment and control of ginseng and its extracts, which are useful and helpful for further discriminating other complex glycoconjugate families.

Abstract
Saccharides in water are detected electrically using an extended-gate type organic field effect transistor (OFET) functionalised by a phenylboronic acid monolayer. The response patterns of the monosaccharides are significantly different, suggesting that OFET devices can successfully read out the saccharide recognition behaviour of boronic acids and be potentially applied to healthcare devices modified with supramolecular receptors.

Abstract
The synthesis of porphyrin–steroid conjugates is examined using the natural steroids oestradiol, oestrone, and lithocholic acid as precursors. Two strategies differing in the timing of formation of the steroid–porphyrin linkage leading to four different construction motifs are explored. Two approaches are based on a strategy of introduction of steroidal components in the porphyrin-forming reaction involving condensation of steroidal-alkylaldehydes and pyrrole to give 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(steroidal-alkyl)porphyrins and differ in the way in which the required aldehyde is introduced to the steroidal component. In the other strategy, a steroidal component is introduced by post-porphyrin synthesis reactions and here also two approaches were explored, one involving nucleophilic substitution and the other esterification. Of the four approaches investigated, the most efficient and most versatile one attaches the steroidal components late in the sequence to a 5,10,15,20-tetra(ω-haloalkyl)porphyrin by a nucleophilic substitution reaction. In this way, a 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[oestrone-linked-heptyl)porphyrin was obtained in 47 % yield.

Abstract
New types of steroid-porphyrin conjugates derived from 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) and 24-epibrassinolide (EBl) were synthesized. An exceptional regioselectivity in the reaction of both steroids with porphyrin boronic acids was found to give side-chain-conjugated boronic esters as sole products. UV-Vis-, fluorescence and NMR spectroscopy yielded similar data for all the studied compounds confirming the solvent driven supramolecular assembly with formation of J-aggregates. CD measurements of water diluted solutions showed a clear difference between 20E and EBl conjugates. The latter showed a strong supramolecular chirality, whereas 20E J-aggregates did not.

Abstract
Ginsenosides are complex natural products with a diverse array of biological activities, but their molecular recognition and sensing is challenging. A library of simple bis-boronic acid-based receptors with various spacers was synthesized for the sensing of ginsenosides. The incorporation of two boronic acids allowed the pairing of two indicators, which can simultaneously bind the receptors or two saccharides within the ginsenosides. A cross-reactive sensing array was therefore constructed using the receptors in conjunction with different pairs of indicators. LDA plots created from the colorimetric response of the hosts and indicator pairs reveal excellent classification of the ginsenosides, and the corresponding loading plots reveal the cross-reactivity of the receptors. In addition, several commercial ginseng extracts were unambiguously classified using the same sensing array. The assay reported here should be applicable to the analysis of other large saccharide-based natural products.
