[PMID: 38856228 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202400513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2024] [Revised: 06/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
This study introduces a novel method for producing Tröger's bases by utilizing the rearrangement chemistry of benzyl azide. This method offers a convenient and adaptable pathway for synthesizing these important molecular structures with potential for further advancements. By reacting benzyl azide derivatives with TfOH under the presence of water, this process generates iminium ion, formaldehyde, and aniline intermediates in situ. Notably, this conversion is reversible under acidic conditions, allowing for the regeneration of the iminium ion and ultimately leading to the formation of the desired Tröger's base product. Additionally, this method could decrease the risk of exposure to an excess amount of formaldehyde.

Tracking the cellular uptake and phototoxicity of Ru(ii)-polypyridyl-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger's base conjugates. RSC Chem Biol 2024; 5:344-359.

Abstract
Ruthenium(ii) complexes are attracting significant research attention as a promising class of photosensitizers (PSs) in photodynamic therapy (PDT). Having previously reported the synthesis of two novel Ru(ii)-polypyridyl-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger's base compounds 1 and 2 with interesting photophysical properties, where the emission from either the Ru(ii) polypyridyl centres or the naphthalimide moieties could be used to monitor binding to nucleic acids, we sought to use these compounds to investigate further and in more detail their biological profiling, which included unravelling their mechanism of cellular uptake, cellular trafficking and cellular responses to photoexcitation. Here we demonstrate that these compounds undergo rapid time dependent uptake in HeLa cells that involved energy dependent, caveolae and lipid raft-dependent mediated endocytosis, as demonstrated by confocal imaging, and transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Following endocytosis, both compounds were shown to localise to mostly lysosomal and Golgi apparatus compartments with some accumulation in mitochondria but no localisation was found to the nucleus. Upon photoactivation, the compounds increased ROS production and induced ROS-dependent apoptotic cell death. The photo-activated compounds subsequently induced DNA damage and altered tubulin, but not actin structures, which was likely to be an indirect effect of ROS production and induced apoptosis. Furthermore, by changing the concentration of the compounds or the laser used to illuminate the cells, the mechanism of cell death could be changed from apoptosis to necrosis. This is the first detailed biological study of Ru(ii)-polypyridyl Tröger's bases and clearly suggests caveolae-dependent endocytosis is responsible for cell uptake - this may also explain the lack of nuclear uptake for these compounds and similar results observed for other Ru(ii)-polypyridyl complexes. These conjugates are potential candidates for further development as PDT agents and may also be useful in mechanistic studies on cell uptake and trafficking.

Abstract
A deferasirox based substituted triazole amine sensor TAD has been synthesized for the highly selective detection of nitrobenzene in real samples. Sensor TAD exhibited selective quenching response against nitrobenzene among the other nitroaromatic compounds (NACs). Photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process was devised as plausible sensing mechanisms which was supported via UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy, 1H NMR titration experiment, density functional theory (DFT) analysis and Job's plot. Non-covalent interaction (NCI) analysis and Bader's quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis were performed to investigate the presence of non-covalent interactions and symmetry perturbation theory (SAPT0) was performed for energy decomposition and quantitative analysis of interaction energies between sensor TAD and NB. Furthermore, sensor TAD was practically applied for the identification of NB in real samples.

Abstract
Nitroaromatic compounds are illicit explosive chemicals. For environmental security and homeland safety, selective and sensitive identification of these secondary-class explosives has been a reason for the exhaustive research arena of chemists for about a decade. We introduced a sensitive optical sensor with desalted neutral red (NR) dye. After ingressing picric acid (PA) in acetonitrile, the probe becomes non-fluorescent, displaying a colorimetric change from yellow to pink. The quenched phenomena and the changed color were re-established with aliphatic amine, trimethylamine (TEA). The reversibility is produced cyclically, both in fluorimetrically and spectrophotometrically. The detection limit for PA with our probe comes out as 0.639 µM; this value is significantly lower than many chemosensors available in the literature. Also, NR-stained filter paper strips-based test kit analysis has been deployed as a displayable photonic device for in-situ detection of PA. Furthermore, the whole system was conceptualized to produce single input, single output, and double input single output logic gates, which can be applied to digital devices. The chronological input manner as NTP (NR- TEA-PA) pushed us to configure a molecular keypad lock system, the basis of digital locking devices. The repeatable & reversible detection system exhibits "Write read- Erase-read Write-read' type memory devices.

Abstract
Dual-state emission luminogens (DSEgens) as fluorophores emit efficiently in solution and solid forms have gained increasing concern in the field of chemical sensing. Recent efforts by our group led to the identification of DSEgens as an easy-to-visualize nitroaromatic explosives (NAEs) detection platform. However, none of the previously studied NAEs probes show effective improvement in sensitivity. Here, we designed a series of benzoxazole-based DSEgens through multiple strategies driven by theoretical calculations, revealing their improved detecting performance on NAEs. Compounds 4a-4e exhibit thermal- and photo-stability, large Stokes shift as well as sensitivity solvatochromism (except for 4a and 4b). A subtle balance between rigid conjugation and distorted conformation endows these D-A type fluorophores 4a-4e with DSE properties. Furthermore, 4d and 4e show aggregation-induced emission phenomenon caused by distorted molecular conformation and restricted intramolecular rotation. Interestingly, DSEgen 4e displays anti-interference and sensitivity towards NAEs with a detection limit of 10-8 M. It can be applied for expedient and distinct visual identification of NAEs not only in solution but also on filter paper and film, supporting this new DSEgen as reliable NAEs chemoprobe.

Abstract
It is well known that the physicochemical properties of nanocarriers, which are closely related to the surface modification of nanoparticles, have crucial impacts on their biological effects. Herein, the interaction between functionalized degradable dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DDMSNs) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated for probing into the nanocarriers' potential toxicity using multi-spectroscopy such as ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis), synchronous fluorescence, Raman and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. BSA, owing to its structural homology and high sequence similarity with HSA, was employed as the model protein to study the interactions with DDMSNs, amino-modified DDMSNs (DDMSNs-NH2) and hyaluronic acid (HA) coated nanoparticles (DDMSNs-NH2-HA). It was found that the static quenching behavior of DDMSNs-NH2-HA to BSA was accompanied by an endothermic and hydrophobic force-driven thermodynamic process, which was confirmed by fluorescence quenching spectroscopic studies and thermodynamic analysis. Furthermore, the conformational variations of BSA upon interaction with nanocarriers were observed by combination of UV/Vis, synchronous fluorescence, Raman and CD spectroscopy. The microstructure of amino residues in BSA changed due to the existence of nanoparticles, for example, the amino residues and hydrophobic groups exposed to microenvironment and the alpha helix (α-helix) content of BSA decreased. Specially, through thermodynamic analysis, the diverse binding modes and driving forces between nanoparticles and BSA were discovered because of different surface modifications on DDMSNs, DDMSNs-NH2 and DDMSNs-NH2-HA. We believe that this work can promote the interpretation of mutual impact between nanoparticles and biomolecules, which will be in favor of predicting the biological toxicity of nano-DDS and engineering functionalized nanocarriers.

Abstract
We report the very first example of a self-assembled p-cymene-Ru(II) metallocycle based on a green emitting 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger's base (TBNap) supramolecular scaffold. A new cleft-shaped TBNap-derived di-4-picolyl donor was synthesized and reacted in a 2 : 2 stoichiometry ratio with a dinuclear Ru(II) acceptor (Ru-A) to generate a [2 + 2] self-assembled metallocycle (TBNap-Ru-MC) in good yield. Both TBNap and TBNap-Ru-MC showed positive solvatochromism in different solvents with varying polarities. In addition, the binding propensity of cationic TBNap-Ru-MC toward the heparin polyanion was determined using fluorescence titration studies. The initial fluorescence emission of TBNap-Ru-MC was quenched upon the gradual addition of the heparin polyanion, and the Stern-Volmer quenching constant (KSV) was calculated to be 3.97 × 105 M-1.

Abstract
Developing low-cost and reliable sensor systems for the detection of trace amounts of toxic gases is an important area of research. Ammonia (NH3) is a commonly produced industrial chemical and a harmful colorless pungent gas released from various manufacturing and processing industries. Continuous exposure to NH3 vapor causes serious menace to human health, microorganisms, and the ecosystem. Exposure to relatively higher concentrations of NH3 severely affects the respiratory system and leads to kidney failure, nasal erosion ulcers, and gastrointestinal diseases. Excessive accumulation of NH3 in the biosphere can cause various metabolic disruptions. As a consequence of this, therefore, suitable sensing methods for selective detection and quantification of trace amounts of NH3 are of utmost need to protect the environment and living systems. Given this, there have been significant research advances in the preceding years on the development of fluorescence chemosensors for efficient sensing and monitoring of the trace concentration of NH3 both in solution and vapor phases. This review article highlights several fluorescence chemosensors reported until recently for sensing and quantifying NH3 in the vapor phase or ammonium ions (NH4+) in the solution phase. The wide variety of fluorescence chemosensors discussed in this article are systematically gathered according to their structures, functional properties, and fluorescence sensing properties. Finally, the usefulness and existing challenges of using the fluorescence-based sensing method for NH3 detection and the future perspective on this research area have also been highlighted.

Abstract
The detection of nitrophenolic explosives is important in counterterrorism and environmental protection, but it is still a challenge to identify the nitroaromatic compounds among those with a similar structure. Herein, a simple tetraphenylethene (TPE) derivative with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) characteristics was synthesized and used as a fluorescent sensor for the detection of nitrophenolic explosives (2, 4, 6-trinitrophenol, TNP and 2, 4-dinitrophenol, DNP) in water solution and in a solid state with a high selectivity. Meanwhile, it was found that only hydroxyl containing nitrophenolic explosives caused obvious fluorescence quenching. The sensing mechanism was investigated by using fluorescence titration and 1H NMR spectra. This simple AIE-active probe can potentially be applied to the construction of portable detection devices for explosives.

Abstract
The useful yet underutilized backfolded design is invoked here for functionalizing porous solids with the versatile carbazole function. Specifically, we attach carbazole groups as backfolded side arms onto the backbone of a linear dicarboxyl linker molecule. The bulky carbazole side arms point away from the carboxyl links and do not disrupt the Zr-carboxyl framework formation; namely, the resultant MOF solid ZrL1 features the same net as that of the unfunctionalized dicarboxyl linker, also known as the PCN-111 net or UiO-66 net. The ZrL1 structure features only half linker occupancy (about 6 out of the 12 linkers around the Zr6O8 cluster being missing) and partially collapses upon activation (acetone exchange and evacuation). Notably, the stability improves after heating in diphenyl oxide at 260 °C (POP-260 treatment; to form ZrL1-260), as indicated by the higher crystallinity and surface area of the activated ZrL1-260 sample. The ZrL1-260 samples achieve 72% yield in photocatalyzing reductive dehalogenation of phenacyl bromide; ZrL1 can detect nitro-aromatic compounds via fluorescence quenching, with selectivity and sensitivity toward 4-nitroaniline, featuring a limit of detection of 96 ppb.

Abstract
A unique V-shaped "chiral" supramolecular scaffold, N-(4-pyridyl)-4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger's base (TBNap), was synthesized in good yield from a precursor N-(4-pyridyl)-4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (Nap). TBNap was characterized using different spectroscopic methods and the molecular structure was elucidated by diffraction analysis. A new p-cymene-Ru(II)-curcumin conjugate (TB-Ru-Cur) was designed by reacting TBNap dipyridyl donor and ruthenium-curcuminato acceptor [RuCur = (p-cymene)Ru-(curcuminato)Cl] in the presence of silver triflate. TB-Ru-Cur was isolated in quantitative yield and characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), NMR (1H, 13C, and 19F), and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and the molecular structure has been predicted using a computational study. Both TBNap and TB-Ru-Cur exhibited intramolecular charge transfer (ICT)-based fluorescence emission. Furthermore, the anticancer properties of TBNap, Ru-Cur, and TB-Ru-Cur were assessed in different cancer cell lines. Gratifyingly, the conjugate TB-Ru-Cur displayed fast-cellular internalization and good cytotoxicity against HeLa, HCT-116, and HepG2 cancer cells and the estimated IC50 value was much lower than that of the precursors (TBNap and Ru-Cur) and the well-known chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin.

Abstract
Charge transfer (CT) interaction induced formation of a hierarchical supramolecular assembly has attracted attention due to its wide diversity of structural and functional characteristics. In the present work, we report the generation of green luminescent microspheres from the charge transfer interaction induced co-assembly of a bis-naphthyl dipicolinic amide (DPA) derivative with tetracyanobenzene (TCNB) for the first time. The properties of these self-assemblies were studied both in solution and the solid-state using spectroscopic and a variety of microscopy techniques. The X-ray crystal structure analysis showed a mixed stack arrangement of DPA and TCNB. The molecular orbital and energy level calculations confirm the charge transfer complex formation between DPA and TCNB. Furthermore, energy transfer was observed from the green luminescent CT complex to a red-emitting dye, pyronin Y, in the microsphere matrix, leading to the formation of a light-harvesting tri-component self-assembly.

Abstract
COVID-19 necessitates the development of reliable and convenient diagnostic tools. In this work, a facile 3D-printed smartphone platform was constructed that achieved reliable visual detection of SARS-CoV-2 by eliminating the effect of ambient light and fixing the camera position relative to the sample. The oligonucleotide probe is modified with orange-red-emitting TAMRA working as an internal standard and green-emitting FAM serving as a sensitive sensing agent. Under 365-nm UV excitation, the emission wavelengths of TAMRA and FAM are 580 nm and 518 nm, respectively. When the probes interact with the targets, the green fluorescence gradually restores while the orange-red fluorescence remains stable. Thus, a striking color transition from orange-red to green could be observed by the naked eye. The detection limit of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid is 0.23 nM, and the entire process of color change could be completed in 25 min. Furthermore, the RGB value analysis of the sample solution was conducted using a smartphone for reliable and reproducible discrimination of SARS-CoV-2. The proposed smartphone platform might establish a general method for visual detection of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid as well as other virus-related diseases.

Abstract
A [2]rotaxane is assembled by γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) with threaded 1,4-diethynylbiphenyl and bulky Au(I)-phosphine stoppers. The phosphorescence of the [2]rotaxane has been observed in aerated aqueous solution and found to be quenched by nitroaromatics due to γ-CD-based co-binding, providing a sensitive approach towards explosive-sensing.

Abstract
Owing to the escalating threat of criminal activities and pollution aroused by 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP), development of a proficient sensor for the detection of these explosives is highly demanded. Herein, a water-soluble ionic liquid-tagged fluorescent probe, 1-ethyl-3-(3-formyl-4-hydroxybenzyl)-1H-benzimidazol-3-ium chloride (EB-IL) has been designed and synthesized for the detection of TNT and TNP in 100% aqueous medium. The EB-IL fluorescent probe displayed strong cyan-blue fluorescence at 500 nm which gets quenched upon the addition of TNT/TNP over other concomitant nitro-compounds. The distinct binding response of EB-IL towards TNT could be due to the formation of hydrogen bonding between the acidic proton of benzimidazolium (C2-H) and nitro group of TNT. Meanwhile, the selective binding of TNP with EB-IL could be due to the exchange of counter Cl- anion of EB-IL with picrate anion. The fluorescence quenching of EB-IL by TNT could be attributed to the resonance energy transfer (RET) and that of TNP is ascribed to the anion-exchange process. The developed sensor is extremely selective and sensitive towards TNT and TNP with high quenching constants of 1.94 × 105 M-1 and 2.32 × 106 M-1 and shows a lower detection limit of 159 nM and 282 nM, respectively.

Abstract
This work describes the synthesis and characterization of three mononuclear nickel complexes supported with amide-based pincer ligands. All three complexes presented an H-bonding-based cavity due to the migration of amidic protons to the appended heterocyclic rings that formed H-bonds with the metal-ligated solvent molecule(s). These complexes functioned as the nanomolar chemosensors for the detection of picric acid and pyrosulfate ion as inferred by the detailed absorption and emission spectral studies while further supported with FTIR, NMR, and mass spectra of the isolated products. We also illustrate a few practical detection methods for the sensing of picric acid in the solution state as the naked-eye colorimetric methods and in the solid state by employing polystyrene films.

Abstract
In this work, we reported a facile reduction approach for fabrication of water-soluble and ultrabright Cu nanoclusters with core-shell structure. A certain amount of reducing agent as NaBH4was introduced into the polyethyleneimine-stabilized Cu nanoclusters (CuNCs@PEI) system, which exhibited 4-fold fluorescence enhancement along with a blue shift of the emission peak. The variations of morphology, valence states and functional groups demonstrated that a Cu shell was formed surround CuNCs (defined as CuNCs-Cu@PEI), attributable to metal complex (PEI-Cu+and PEI-Cu2+) reduction. The effect of core-shell morphology on luminous and electron relaxation mechanism of CuNCs-Cu@PEI was investigated via temperature-dependent steady and time-resolved fluorescence measurements. The CuNCs-Cu@PEI with a high fluorescence quantum yields of 22.59% were able to homogeneously disperse in aqueous phase, indicating their potential applications in biological labeling, sensing and invivoimaging. Finally, the CuNCs-Cu@PEI was employed as a fluorescence probe to determine 4-nitrophenol, of which the detection limit was much lower than initial CuNCs@PEI.

Abstract
A zinc(ii) complex, [ZnL(H2O)]·H2O {H2L = 2,2′-[(2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediyl)bis(nitrilomethylidyne)]bis[6-ethoxyphenol]} has been synthesized and characterized by UV-vis and IR spectroscopy. The structure of the complex has been confirmed by X-ray crystallography and the noncovalent interactions characterized using Hirshfeld surface analysis. In addition to the conventional H-bonds involving the Zn-coordinated and non-coordinated water molecules, interesting C–H⋯π interactions between the H-atoms belonging to aliphatic part of the ligand (2,2-dimethyl-1,3-propanediyl) and the Zn-coordinated aromatic rings are established. These interactions have been studied using DFT calculations (PBE0-D3/def2-TZVP) and characterized using molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) surfaces and the noncovalent interaction (NCI) plot index analyses. The strength of the C–H⋯π interaction in the solid state of [ZnL(H2O)]·H2O has been evaluated using DFT calculations and also analysed using the MEP surface and NCI plot index computational tool.![]()

The synthesis of fifteen luminescent bis-naphthalimide based Tröger's bases (TBNaps) derived from 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (4-Amino-Nap) precursors is described; these scaffolds possess α-amino acids, esters or di-peptides conjugated at the imide site and show minor fluorescence in aqueous solution while being highly emissive in organic solvents. The investigation shows that these TBNaps possessing ICT excited state properties are capable of generating either positive or negative solvatochromic effects in response to changes in polarity and/or the hydrogen bonding capabilities of the medium.

Abstract
![]()
A novel method for
the synthesis of epoxydibenzo[b,f][1,5]diazocines exhibiting a V-shaped molecular
architecture is reported. The unique approach is based on unprecedented
base-catalyzed, solvent-free autocondensation and cross-condensation
of fluorinated o-aminophenones. The structure of
the newly synthesized diazocines was confirmed independently by X-ray
analysis and chiroptical methods. The rigidity of the diazocine scaffold
allowed for the separation of the racemate into single enantiomers
that proved to be thermally stable up to 140 °C. Furthermore,
the inertness of the diazocine scaffold was demonstrated by performing
a series of typical transformations, including transition metal-catalyzed
reactions, proceeding without affecting the bis-hemiaminal subunit.

Abstract
Picric acid (PA) at low concentration is a serious water pollutant. Alongside, aliphatic amines (AAs) add to the queue to pollute surface water. Plenty of reports are available to sense PA with an ultralow limit of detection (LOD). However, only a handful of works are testified to detect AAs. A new fluorescent donor-acceptor compound has been synthesized with inherent intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) character that enables selective and sensitive colorimetric quantitative detection of PA and AAs with low LODs in non-aqueous as well as aqueous solutions. The synthesized compound is based on a hemicyanine skeleton containing two pyridenylmethylamino groups at the donor and a benzothiazole moiety at the acceptor ends. The detailed mechanisms and reaction dynamics are explained spectroscopically along with computational support. The fluorescence property of the detecting compound changes due to protonation of its pyridinyl centers by PA leading to quenching of fluorescence and subsequently de-protonation by AAs to revive the signal. We have further designed logic circuits from the acquired optical responses by sequential interactions.

Abstract
AbstractA dysprosium(iii) organic framework, {[Dy(H2O)(BTCTB)]·2H2O}n (1, H3BTCTB = 3,3′,3′′-[1,3,5-benzenetriyltris(carbonylimino)]tris-benzoic acid), was synthesized through the hydrothermal reaction of Dy(NO3)3 with the C3-symmetric organic ligand H3BTCTB at 160°C for 96 h. At the same time, the sensitivity of picric acid in water medium was tested with material 1 as the fluorescent sensor. The detection limit was 0.71 µM and KSV of this experiment was 8.55 × 104 M−1, which might be attributed to the presence of abundant amide groups in the framework of 1. In addition, the treatment effect of compound 1 against the NCI-H292 lung cancer cells was evaluated. The Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) method was conducted to measure the viability of cancer cell after treated through the compound 1. The DCFH-DA was applied for the determination of ROS. The relative expression of the inflammatory genes was measured with RT-PCR. The western blotting was conducted to detect the effect of the compound against MDM-2 levels in NCI-H292 lung cancer cells. The possible binding interactions in terms of binding poses are probed by performing molecular docking simulations.

Abstract
With the rapid growth of anti-terrorist activities worldwide, it becomes an emerging requirement to rapidly and accurately detect hidden explosive threats. However, the safety issue during the explosive material detection, e.g. unexpected explosion, is still an insurmountable challenge. In this study, we design and mass-produce a novel kind of flexible 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)porphyrin doped polymer optical fiber (PPOF) for rapid and accurate detection of trace 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT) vapor based on the DNT induced florescence quenching mechanism. The influence of doping concentration, bending, and temperature on the sensing performance is investigated. PPOF shows immunity to bending, enabling it to work in a harsh environment. It is experimentally demonstrated that the limit of detection and response time of the proposed PPOF could reach around 120 ppb and 3 minutes, respectively, which make it much better than other techniques. Owning to its inherent advantages including low-cost, remote-control capability, and compatibility with optical communication networking, PPOF can be constructed the quasi-distributed sensing networking of explosive matters in the future, providing a new strategy for anti-terrorism.

Abstract
In this work, amino functionalized CdSe-silica core-shell nanoparticles (NH2-CdSe@SiO2 NPs) were constructed as probe to detect picric acid (PA). The CdSe QDs were embedded in SiO2 nanoparticles and modified with amino groups on the surface. The nitro explosives are electron deficient in nature, which will have stronger affinity for amines and resulted in fluorescence quenching of quantum dots. It was proved that this strategy is selective, easy and sensitive enough for sensing PA with a detection limit of 0.5 × 10-7 M.
