Abstract
We report the synthesis of chiral lanthanide complexes with extended π conjugation for efficient circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) via two-photon excitation (2PE). The pyridine bis-oxazoline (PyBox) core provides the chiral Ln3+ environment, while the extension of the conjugated backbone through the pyridine 4-position with a phenylacetylene unit increases the two-photon absorption cross section. This work presents an important step toward the development of chiral systems displaying enhanced nonlinear optical properties, with potential applications in imaging and sensing, as well as in photodynamic therapy due to the selective excitation of molecules within a specific focal volume.

Comparison of Photophysical Properties of Lanthanide(III) Complexes of DTTA- or DO3A-Appended Aryl-2,2'-Bipyridines. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 28:molecules28020724. [PMID: 36677784 PMCID: PMC9864760 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28020724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 01/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023]
Abstract
New Tb(III) and Eu(III) complexes based on aryl-2,2'-bipyridine ligands with a cyclic DO3A chelating unit appended in the alpha position of the bipyridine core were synthesized. The photophysical properties of these complexes were compared with those of complexes of ligands with identical aryl-2,2'-bipyridine chromophores, but with an acyclic DTTA residue as an additional chelating site in the alpha position of the bipyridine core. The nature of the polyaminocarboxylic acid fragments was found to have a significant influence on the luminescence. For some of the Eu(III) complexes, upon the transition from acyclic DTTA- to the cyclic DO3A-appended ligands, a noticeable increase in the intensity of Eu(III) luminescence was observed, with an increase in the quantum yield of up to 2.55 times. In contrast, for most of the Tb(III) complexes, a similar transition resulted in a noticeable decrease in the luminescence intensity of the Tb(III) cation.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2022; 282:121663. [PMID: 35917616 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2022.121663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/23/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
In this work, a novel Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC) complex with red luminescence was designed and synthesized for sequential detection of Cu2+ and biothiols (Cys/Hcy/GSH) based on the displacement strategy with the good selectivity, high sensitivity, and large Stokes shift (288 nm). The possible detection mechanism was verified by UV-vis, the high-resolution mass spectrometry, and the fluorescence decay curve. The experimental parameters, including the solution pH, the incubation time, the concentration ratio of Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC) to Cu2+ and biothiols concentration, were optimized. Under the optimal conditions, it shows a good linear relationship between the concentration (0-10 μM) of Cu2+ and the fluorescence intensity of Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC), with a low detection limit of 0.065 μM. The linear range and the limit of detection of the Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC)/Cu2+ system for Cys/Hcy/GSH were 2.5-22.5/5-45/5-50 μM and 0.11/0.07/0.05 μM, respectively. Surprisingly, the high or low concentration of Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC)/Cu2+ can significantly affect the selectivity of the sensing system to biothiols (Cys/GSH/Hcy). When the concentration of the Eu3+-DTPA-bis(AMC)/Cu2+ system is 10.0 μΜ, it could recognize biothiols (Cys/GSH/Hcy) from other substances, but when the concentration is as low as 3.3 μM, it could further specifically distinguished Cys from Hcy/GSH. Owing to the high anti-interference characteristics, accuracy and specificity, the sensing system was well applied to the cascade detection of Cu2+ in actual environmental samples and Cys in biological and food samples, including FBS, urine, milk, beverage, fresh juice with the satisfactory recoveries from 96.20 to 106.80 %.

Abstract
This study compared the binding of europium by soil and aquatic natural organic matter (NOM) exemplified by Pahokee Peat humic acid (PPHA) and Northern Reservoir NOM, respectively. NOM/Eu3+ interactions were measured based on the differential absorbance approach. The experimental results show that the binding of Eu3+ by humic acid isolated from agricultural soil results in several features of the differential spectra that are distinct from those observed for aquatic NOM. These features may be associated with the presence in soil NOM of functional groups similar to gallic acid. The binding of Eu3+ by NOM was modeled using a phenomenological approach that accounted for the involvement of dissimilar metal-binding functionalities. This study also introduced the concept of integrated differential absorbance; the use of that parameter allowed achieving a close fit between the experimental and model data. This study presents an alternative approach to ascertain mechanisms of, and differences in the interactions of europium with model compounds and natural organic matter with the provenance from soil and surface water.

Abstract
An iron-responsive optical probe has been developed for simultaneous sensing of both ferritin and apoferritin proteins at pH 7.4 in water. The compound showed an exclusive response (turn-off signal) towards ferritin among a wide range of proteins even at nanomolar concentration. In contrast, apoferritin dissociates the preformed iron complex and revives the green colored fluorescence of the native probe (turn-on signal). Subsequently, various parameters associated with the serum iron level are evaluated, which are beneficial for clinical diagnosis of many iron-related diseases, including anemia. Estimation of iron was achieved in a wide range of edible plant materials as well as pharmaceutical formulations. Subsequently, different kinds of natural water samples were screened for quantification of soluble iron contents. In addition to traditional spectroscopic tools, dye-coated paper strips were developed as an alternative strategy for onsite 'instrument-free' detection of iron. Highly specific bioimaging of Fe3+ was achieved in cervical cancer cells (HeLa).

Abstract
A new luminescent terbium-metal-organic framework [Tb3(L)2(HCOO)(H2O)5]·DMF·4H2O (1) (H4L = 4,4'-(pyridine-3,5-diyl)diisophthalic acid) has been successfully assembled by Tb(3+) ions and an undeveloped pyridyl-tetracarboxylate. Compound 1 exhibits a 3D porous (3,8)-connected (4.5(2))2(4(2).5(12).6(6).7(5).8(3)) topological framework with fascinating 1D open hydrophilic channels decorated by uncoordinated Lewis basic pyridyl nitrogen atoms. In particular, the Tb-MOF (1) can detect Cu(2+) ions with high selectivity and sensitivity, and its luminescence is nearly entirely quenched in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution and biological system. In addition, 1 still has high detection for the trace content of nitromethane with 70 ppm, which suggests that 1 is a promising example of dual functional materials with sensing copper ions and nitromethane.

Abstract
The luminescent dimeric ternary lanthanide–cyclen complexes (2-(Ln.1)2; Ln = Tb/Eu) were designed and both their self-assembly formation and their ability to detect anions via displacement assays were investigated using spectrophotometric titrations in MeOH solution. The formation of 2-(Tb.1)2 and 2-(Eu.1)2 was investigated in solution, and determination of the binding constants and stoichiometry showed that the former was formed almost exclusively over the 1:1 complex 2-(Tb.1) after the addition of two equivalents of 2; while for 2-(Eu.1)2 a mixture of both stoichiometries existed even after the addition of four equivalents of 2. Of these two systems, 2-(Tb.1)2 was studied in details as a probe for anions, where significant changes where observed in the photophysical properties of the complex; with the characteristic Tb(III)-centred emission being fully switched off upon the sensing of phosphates and nitrate, giving rise to the formation of a H2PO4(-):Tb.1 complex in a 1:2 stoichiometry upon sensing of H2PO4(-) by 2-(Tb.1)2, while NO3(-) gave 1:1 complex formation and two equivalents of NO3(-)·Tb.1.

Abstract
A systematic study of the effect of hydrophobicity and charge on the cell viability and cell association of lanthanide metal complexes is presented. The terbium luminescent probes feature a macrocyclic polyaminocarboxylate ligand (DOTA) in which the hydrophobicity of the antenna and that of the carboxyamide pendant arms are independently varied. Three sensitizing antennas were investigated in terms of their function in vitro: 2-methoxyisophthalamide (IAM(OMe)), 2-hydroxyisophthalamide (IAM), and 6-methylphenanthridine (Phen). Of these complexes, Tb-DOTA-IAM exhibited the highest quantum yield, although the higher cell viability and more facile synthesis of the structurally related Tb-DOTA-IAM(OMe) platform renders it more attractive. Further modification of this latter core structure with carboxyamide arms featuring hydrophobic benzyl, hexyl, and trifluoro groups as well as hydrophilic amino acid based moieties generated a family of complexes that exhibit high cell viability (ED50 > 300 μM) regardless of the lipophilicity or the overall complex charge. Only the hexyl-substituted complex reduced cell viability to 60% in the presence of 100 μM complex. Additionally, cellular association was investigated by ICP-MS and fluorescence microscopy. Surprisingly, the hydrophobic moieties did not increase cell association in comparison to the hydrophilic amino acid derivatives. It is thus postulated that the hydrophilic nature of the 2-methoxyisophthalamide antenna (IAM(OMe)) disfavors the cellular association of these complexes. As such, responsive luminescent probes based on this scaffold would be appropriate for the detection of extracellular species.

Abstract
Molecular probes for the detection of hydroxyl radical (HO•) by time-delayed luminescence spectroscopy directly in water at neutral pH with high sensitivity and selectivity are presented. The bimolecular probes consist of a lanthanide complex with open coordination sites and a reactive pre-antenna composed of an aromatic acid or amide; the latter binds to and sensitizes terbium emission upon hydroxylation by HO•. These probes exhibit long luminescence lifetimes compatible with time-delayed measurements that remove interfering background fluorescence from the sample. Six different reactive pre-antenna (benzoate, benzamide, isophthalate, isophthalamide, trimesate, and trimesamide) and two different terbium complexes [Tb-(1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,4,7-tris(acetic acid)) (Tb-DO3A) and Tb-(1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-1,7-bis(acetic acid)) (Tb-DO2A)] were evaluated. Of these the trimesamide/Tb-DO3A system enables the most sensitive detection of HO• with an about 1000-fold increase in metal-centered time-delayed emission upon hydroxylation of the pre-antenna to 2-hydroxytrimesamide. Excellent selectivity for both the trimesamide/Tb-DO3A and trimesate/Tb-DO3A systems over other reactive oxygen and nitrogen species are observed. Notably, the increase in metal-centered luminescence intensity is not associated with a decrease in the hydration number (q) of Tb-DO3A, suggesting that the antenna is interacting with the lanthanide via a second sphere coordination environment or that coordination by the antenna occurs by displacement of one or more of the carboxylate arms of DO3A. Formation of a weak ternary complex Tb-DO3A•hydroxytrimesamide was confirmed by temperature-dependent titration and a decrease in K(app) with increasing temperature.

Abstract
In order to evaluate quinoline as a remote sensitiser, we have prepared a DTPA based ligand, H3L, bearing quinoline bisamide arms for the complexation of a range of lanthanide(III) ions to give the neutral complexes LnLwhere Ln(3+) = Y(3+), Eu(3+), Sm(3+), Tb(3+), Er(3+), Yb(3+), Nd(3+), Gd(3+). Detection of the phosphorescence signal exhibited by the GdLcomplex at 77 K confirmed that the triplet energy level of the sensitiser at 21,190 cm(-1) was suitable for the indirect population of a range of lanthanide luminescent states. A full photophysical analysis of the complexes reveals that SmL and EuL display red emission when excited through the ligand-based absorption band centred at 330 nm, extending the excitation to violet light around 370 nm. We demonstrate that quinoline sensitizes near-infrared emission in the YbL, ErL and NdL complexes, in powder form as well as in solution. Most importantly, the luminescence for YbL and NdL was sufficiently efficient to be detected in non-deuterated solvent.

Abstract
In this short review, we focus on the recent developments within the field of coordination chemistry where mono- or multimetallic supramolecular self-assemblies are formed by employing structurally defined organic ligands, taking advantage of the high coordination requirements of the lanthanides. Such synthesis results in the formation of both structurally complex and beautiful self-assemblies. Moreover, as the lanthanide ions possess both unique magnetic (e.g. GdIII and DyIII) and luminescent properties, either in the visible (EuIII, SmIII and TbIII) or near-infrared regions (YbIII, NdIII, ErIII), these physical features are usually transferred to the self-assemblies themselves, allowing the formation of highly functional structures, such as coordination networks, as well as molecular bundles and helicates. Hence, examples of the use of lanthanide-directed synthesis of luminescent sensors, some of which are formed on solid surfaces such as gold (flat surface or nanoparticles), and imaging agents are presented. Moreover, we demonstrate that by using chiral organic ligands, lanthanide-directed synthesis can also give rise to the formation of enantiomerically pure self-assemblies, the structure of which can be probed using circularly polarized luminescence.
