Abstract
We report here on the development of a fluorescent cone homooxacalix[3]arene-based receptor with a pyrene unit on the wide rim of the macrocycle (Ox3F) for the selective detection of primary ammonium ions, including those of biological importance. Ox3F was synthesized efficiently via an innovative strategy that enables the regio- and iteroselective wide rim functionalization of the readily available p-tBu-substituted homooxacalix[3]arene precursor. Nuclear magnetic resonance studies and in silico methods highlighted the endo-complexation of primary ammonium ions, including the protonated form of biogenic dopamine, tryptamine, serotonin, mexamine, and 3-iodothyronamine. The binding mode is similar for all guests with the ion deeply inserted into the polyaromatic cavity, enabling the NH3+ head to establish three hydrogen bonds with the ethereal oxygens of the macrocycle. Fluorescence quenching of the pyrene unit was observed following the π-π interaction between the pyrene moiety and the aromatic groups of serotonin, mexamine, and 3-iodothyronamine. No quenching was observed upon complexation of the smaller aromatic neurotransmitter dopamine as well as aliphatic amines and polyamines. This study presents a novel approach for biologically relevant ammonium ion chemosensing with ongoing efforts focused on translating these systems for aqueous environment applications.

Abstract
Calixarenes are among the most useful and versatile macrocycles in supramolecular chemistry. The one thing that has not changed in the 80 years since their discovery, despite numerous derivatizations, is their fully organic, covalent scaffolds. Here, we report a new type of organic-inorganic hybrid "calixarenes" constructed by means of coordination-driven assembly. Replacing acetate ligands on the {SiW10 Cr2 (OAc)2 } clusters with 5-hydroxyisophthalates allows these 95° inorganic building blocks to be linked into bowl-shaped, hybrid "calix[n]arenes" (n=3, 4). With a large concave cavity, the metal-organic calix[4]arene can accommodate nanometer-sized polyoxoanions in an entropically driven process. The development of hybrid variants of calixarenes is expected to expand the scope of their physicochemical properties, guest/substrate binding, and applications on multiple fronts.

Abstract
Tetraamino-tetranitro-azacalixarene 5 is at the crossroad of two different families of compounds depending on the conditions and the agent used to reduce the NO2 groups: (1) azacalixphyrin 7 in neutral medium, or (2) phenazinium of type 8 in acidic medium. The key role of the N-substituted amino functions at the periphery is highlighted by investigating octaaminoazacalixarene as a model compound, and by using the corresponding tetrahydroxy-tetranitro-azacalixarene 15 as a precursor, which behaves differently.

Abstract
This review covers recent advances (from 2006 to date) in supramolecular systems based on fluorescent homooxacalixarenes, namely hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arenes, dihomooxacalix[4]arenes and tetrahomodioxacalix[4]arenes, focusing on fluorescence sensing using their intrinsic fluorescence (built-in mesitol-like groups) or the extrinsic fluorescence of organic fluorophores, either covalently linked to the calixarenes or forming supramolecular complexes with them. Sensing applications of ions, ion pairs and neutral molecules are discussed, as well as the potential measurement of temperature based on thermally activated delayed fluorescence.

Abstract
The binding behaviour of two ureido-hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arene derivatives bearing naphthyl (1) and pyrenyl (2) fluorogenic units at the lower rim towards selected nitroaromatic compounds (NACs) was evaluated. Their affinity, or lack of it, was determined by UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence and NMR spectroscopy. Different computational methods were also used to further investigate any possible complexation between the calixarenes and the NACs. All the results show no significant interaction between calixarenes 1 and 2 and the NACs in either dichloromethane or acetonitrile solutions. Moreover, the fluorescence quenching observed is only apparent and merely results from the absorption of the NACs at the excitation wavelength (inner filter effect). This evidence is in stark contrast with reports in the literature for similar calixarenes. A naphthyl urea dihomooxacalix[4]arene (3) is also subject to the inner filter effect and is shown to form a stable complex with trinitrophenol; however, the equilibrium association constant is greatly overestimated if no correction is applied (9400 M-1 vs 3000 M-1), again stressing the importance of taking into account the inner filter effect in these systems.

Abstract
Globally 3 billion people are consuming water with moderately high concentrations of fluoride and arsenic. The development of a simple point of care (PoC) device or home device for the detection of fluoride/arsenic ensures safety before consuming water. Till date, lateral flow assay (LFA) based PoC devices can detect nucleic acids, viruses and diseases. An aluminium complex of rhodamine B functionalized oxacalix[4]arene (L) was designed to execute the LFA-based PoC device. Initially, Al3+ and Fe3+ ions were involved in complexation with the rhodamine B functionalized oxacalix[4]arene (L), resulting C1 (L-Al3+) and C2 (L-Fe3+) complexes respectively. The receptor L, as well as the probes (C1, C2), were characterized thoroughly using mass spectroscopy, FTIR, NMR, and EA. C1 and C2 were further utilized as recyclable probes for the detection of aqueous fluoride (21 ppb) and arsenate (1.92 ppb) respectively. The computational calculation indicates that upon complexation, the spirolactam ring opening at the rhodamine B site leads to optoelectronic changes. The consistency of LFA-based portable sensing device has been tested with water samples, synthetic fluoride standards and dental care products like toothpaste and mouthwash with concentrations ≥ 3 ppm. Moreover, fixed cell imaging experiments were performed to ascertain the in-vitro sensing phenomena.

Abstract
With the serendipitous discovery of crown ethers by Pedersen more than half a century ago and the subsequent introduction of host-guest chemistry and supramolecular chemistry by Cram and Lehn, respectively, followed by the design and synthesis of wholly synthetic cyclophanes-in particular, fluorescent cyclophanes, having rich structural characteristics and functions-have been the focus of considerable research activity during the past few decades. Cyclophanes with remarkable emissive properties have been investigated continuously over the years and employed in numerous applications across the field of science and technology. In this Review, we feature the recent developments in the chemistry of fluorescent cyclophanes, along with their design and synthesis. Their host-guest chemistry and applications related to their structure and properties are highlighted.

Abstract
Fluorescent receptors (4a-4c) based on (thio)ureido-functionalized hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arenes were synthesised and obtained in the partial cone conformation in solution. Naphthyl or pyrenyl fluorogenic units were introduced at the lower rim of the calixarene skeleton via a butyl spacer. The binding of biologically and environmentally relevant anions was studied with NMR, UV-vis absorption, and fluorescence titrations. Fluorescence of the pyrenyl receptor 4c displays both monomer and excimer fluorescence. The thermodynamics of complexation was determined in acetonitrile and was entropy-driven. Computational studies were also performed to bring further insight into the binding process. The data showed that association constants increase with the anion basicity, and AcO-, BzO- and F- were the best bound anions for all receptors. Pyrenylurea 4c is a slightly better receptor than naphthylurea 4a, and both are more efficient than naphthyl thiourea 4b. In addition, ureas 4a and 4c were also tested as ditopic receptors in the recognition of alkylammonium salts.

Abstract
Herein, a novel N-(4-(tert-butyl)-phenyl)-2-chloroacetamide functionalized thiacalix[4]arene architecture, viz TCAN2PA has been synthesized and the sensing behaviour towards metal ions were explored. The probe, TCAN2PA displayed "turn-on" fluorescence response towards Hg(II) ions in acetonitrile over a series of competing common metal ions. A bathochromic shift in absorption band along with a significant "Turn-On" fluorescence behaviour of TCAN2PA was observed upon interaction with Hg(II) ions. The lower rim modification of thiacalixarene with N-(4-(tert-butyl)-phenyl)-2-chloroacetamide actively contributes toward the fluorescence property due to the presence of strong electron-donating aryl amido substituent. Fluorescence titration experiments were conducted to find out the limit of detection and to understand binding stoichiometry as well. The electron transfer interactions between the electron rich TCAN2PA host with Hg(II) ions have been postulated which is also supported by computational modelling insights.

Abstract
This review focuses on the synthesis, structure, and interactions of metal ions, the detection of some weak interactions using the structure, and the construction of supramolecules of azacalixarenes that have been reported to date. Azacalixarenes are characterized by the presence of shallow or deep cavities, the simultaneous presence of a basic nitrogen atom and an acidic phenolic hydroxyl group, and the ability to introduce various side chains into the cyclic skeleton. These molecules can be given many functions by substituting groups on the benzene ring, modifying phenolic hydroxyl groups, and converting side chains. The author discusses the evidence of azacalixarene utilizing these characteristics.

Abstract
A water-soluble cyclophane dimer having two disulfide groups as a reduction-responsive cleavable bond as well as several acidic and basic functional groups as a pH-responsive ionizable group 1 was successfully synthesized. It was found that 1 showed pH-dependent guest-binding behavior. That is, 1 strongly bound an anionic guest, 6-p-toluidinonaphthalene-2-sulfonate (TNS) with binding constant (K/M−1) for 1:1 host-guest complexes of 9.6 × 104 M−1 at pH 3.8, which was larger than those at pH 7.4 and 10.7 (6.0 × 104 and 2.4 × 104 M−1, respectively), indicating a favorable electrostatic interaction between anionic guest and net cationic 1. What is more, release of the entrapped guest molecules by 1 was easily controlled by pH stimulus. Large favorable enthalpies (ΔH) for formation of host-guest complexes were obtained under the pH conditions employed, suggesting that electrostatic interaction between anionic TNS and 1 was the most important driving force for host-guest complexation. Such contributions of ΔH for formation of host-guest complexes decreased along with increased pH values from acidic to basic solutions. Upon addition of dithiothreitol (DTT) as a reducing reagent to an aqueous PBS buffer (pH 7.4) containing 1 and TNS, the fluorescence intensity originating from the bound guest molecules decreased gradually. A treatment of 1 with DTT gave 2, having less guest-binding affinity by the cleavage of disulfide bonds of 1. Consequently, almost all entrapped guest molecules by 1 were released from the host. Moreover, such reduction-responsive cleavage of 1 and release of bound guest molecules was performed more rapidly in aqueous buffer at pH 10.7.

Reactions of p-methyl-dimethyldiazacalix[6]areneH6 (L2H6) with [TiF4] (four equivalents), [TiCl4(THF)2] (two equivalents) or [TiBr4] (>four equivalents) resulted in the titanium-based azacalix[n]arene complexes [Ti4F14L2H2(H)2]·2.5MeCN (3·2.5MeCN), [Ti2X4(H2O)2OL2H2(H)2] (X = Cl (4·5MeCN), Br (5·4.5MeCN) and [Ti4Br12L2(H)2(MeCN)6]·7MeCN (6·7MeCN), respectively. Reaction of four equivalents of [TiF4] with L3H4 (L3H4 = p-methyl-dimethyldiazacalix[4]areneH4) afforded the product [Ti2F2(μ-F)3L3(H)2(SiF5)]·2MeCN (7·2MeCN). These complexes have been screened for their potential to act as pre-catalysts in the ring opening polymerization (ROP) of ε-caprolactone (ε-CL), δ-valerolactone (δ-VL) and rac-lactide (r-LA). Generally, the titanium complexes bearing oxacalixarene exhibited better activities than the azacalixarene-based pre-catalysts. For ε-CL, δ-VL and r-LA, moderate activity at 130 °C over 24 h was observed for 1-6. In the case of the co-polymerization of ε-CL with r-LA, 1-6 afforded reasonable conversions and high molecular weight polymers; 7 exhibited lower catalytic performance due to low solubility. None of the complexes proved to be active in the polymerization of ω-pentadecalactone (ω-PDL) under the conditions employed herein.

Abstract
We have structurally characterized a number of lithiated calix[4]arenes, where the bridge in the calix[4]arene is thia (–S–, LSH4), sulfinyl (–SO–, LSOH4), sulfonyl (–SO2–, LSO2H4), dimethyleneoxa (–CH2OCH2–, LCOCH4) or methylene (–CH2–, LH4). In the case of L4SH4, interaction with LiOtBu led to the isolation of the complex [Li8(L4S)2(THF)4]·5THF (1·5THF), whilst similar interaction of L4SOH4 led to the isolation of [Li6(L4SOH)2(THF)2]·5(THF) (2·5THF). Interestingly, the mixed sulfinyl/sulfonyl complexes [Li8(calix[4]arene(SO)(SO2)(SO1.68)2)2(THF)6]·8(THF) (3·8THF) and [Li5Na(LSO/3SO2H)2(THF)5]·7.5(THF) (4·7.5(THF) have also been characterized. Interaction of LiOtBu with LSO2H4 and LCOCH4 afforded [Li5L4SO2(OH)(THF)4]·2THF (5·2THF) and [Li6(LCOC)2(HOtBu)2]·0.78THF·1.22hexane (6·0.78THF·1.22hexane), respectively. In the case of LH4, reaction with LiOtBu in THF afforded a monoclinic polymorph [LH2Li2(thf)(OH2)2]·3THF (7·3THF) of a known triclinic form of the complex, whilst reaction of the de-butylated analogue of LH4, namely de-BuLH4, afforded a polymeric chain structure {[Li5(de-BuL)(OH)(NCMe)3]·2MeCN}n (8·2MeCN). For comparative catalytic studies, the complex [Li6(LPr)2(H2O)2]·hexane (9 hexane), where LPr2H2 = 1,3-di-n-propyloxycalix[4]areneH2, was also prepared. The molecular crystal structures of 1–9 are reported, and their ability to act as catalysts for the ring opening (co-)/polymerization (ROP) of the cyclic esters ε-caprolactone, δ-valerolactone, and rac-lactide has been investigated. In most of the cases, complex 6 outperformed the other systems, allowing for higher conversions and/or greated polymer Mn. Novel Li-calix[n]arene complexes (n = 3, 4) having (–S–), (–SO–), (–SO2–), (–CH2OCH2–) or (–CH2–) bridges have been synthesized and fully characterized. Their catalytic activity in the ring opening polymerization of lactones has been studied.![]()

Abstract
Calixarene-analogous metacyclophanes (CAMs) are a special class of cyclophanes that are cyclic polyaromatic hydrocarbons containing three or more aromatic rings linked by one or more methylene bridging groups. They can be considered to be analogues of calixarenes, since, in both types of molecules, the component aromatic rings are linked by methylene groups, which are meta to each other. Since the prototype or classical calix[4]arene consists of four benzene rings each linked by methylene bridges, which are also meta to each other, it can be considered to be an example of a functionalized [1.1.1.1]metacyclophane. A metacyclophane (MCP) that consists of three individual hydroxyl-group functionalized aromatic rings linked by methylene groups, e.g., a trihydroxy[1.1.1]MCP may therefore, by analogy, be termed in the broadest sense as a "calix[3]arene" or a "calix[3]arene-analogous metacyclophane". Most of the CAMs reported have been synthesized by fragment coupling approaches. The design, synthesis and development of functionalized CAMs, MCPs, calixarenes and calixarene analogues has been an area of great activity in the past few decades, due their potential applications as molecular receptors, sensors and ligands for metal binding, and for theoretical studies, etc. In this review article, we focus mainly on the synthesis, structure and conformational properties of [1.1.1]CAMs, i.e., "calix[3]arenes" and their analogues, which contain three functionalized aromatic rings and which provide new scaffolds for further explorations in supramolecular and sensor chemistry.

Abstract
The binding of ammonium ions by two homooxacalix[3]arene-based receptors was studied using NMR spectroscopy and in silico methods. Both receptors are shown to endocomplex, even in a protic environment, a large variety of primary ammonium ions, including biomolecules. The binding mode is similar for all guests with the ammonium ion deeply inserted into the polyaromatic cavity and its NH3+ head nearly in the plane defined by the three oxygen atoms of the 18-crown-3 moiety, thus enabling it to establish three H-bonds with the ethereal macrocycle. The remarkable electronic, size, and shape complementarity between primary ammonium ions and the two cavity-based receptors leads to an unprecedented specificity for primary ammonium ions over secondary, tertiary, and quaternary ones. These binding properties were exploited for the selective liquid-liquid extraction of primary ammonium salts from water and for the selective recognition of lysine-containing peptides, opening new perspectives in the field of peptide sensing.

Abstract
Water-soluble cationic and anionic cyclophanes (1a and 2a, respectively) having a dabsyl group with a cleavable disulfide linkage were synthesized as a host-guest conjugate covalently bound with both host and guest components. Self-inclusion phenomena but not self-aggregation behaviors were observed for each cyclophane in aqueous media. Each cyclophane includes its own dabsyl moiety (guest component) in its macrocyclic cavity (host component) through hydrophobic interaction. When 1 equiv. of cationic 1a was added to an aqueous solution of anionic 2a, however, supramolecular coaggregates formed spontaneously through host-guest complexation. As regard the supramolecular coaggregates, the existence of larger particles was confirmed by DLS measurements and TEM observation. The hydrophobic interaction between the dabsyl moiety and macrocyclic cavity and electrostatic interactions between 1a and 2a play important roles in the supramolecular coaggregate formation. Each cyclophane having a cleavable disulfide linkage was easily transformed to the corresponding thiols by reducing reagents such as DTT, which was confirmed by MALDI-TOF MS. Disaggregation of the supramolecular coaggregates composed of 1a and 2a was successfully performed upon addition of DTT, with release of the thiol derivative of dabsyl. Such disaggregation of the coaggregates was also conducted by other external stimuli such as salts and competitive guests.

Abstract
The straightforward synthesis of a new hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arene-based ligand capped by a tren subunit was developed and the binding properties of the corresponding zinc complex were explored by NMR spectroscopy. Similarly to the closely related calix[6]tren-based systems, the homooxacalixarene core ensures the mononuclearity of the zinc complex and the metal center displays a labile coordination site for exogenous guests. However, very different host-guest properties were observed: i) in CDCl3 , the zinc complex strongly binds a water molecule and is reluctant to recognize other neutral guests, ii) in CD3 CN, the exo-coordination of anions prevails. Thus, in strong contrast to the calix[6]tren-based systems, the coordination of neutral guests that thread through the small rim and fill the polyaromatic cavity was not observed. This unique behaviour is likely due to the fact that the 18-membered ethereal macrocycle is too small to let a molecule threading through it. This work illustrates the key role played by the second coordination sphere in the binding properties of metal complexes.

Abstract
Based on the superior prospects of calixarenes-based agents and N-heterocyclic pharmacophores in biomedical applications, 14 new dihomooxacalix[4]arene N-heterocyclic (pyridine, quinoline, and thiazole) derivatives 4a-4n were efficiently synthesized from the parent compound, namely, p-tert-butyldihomooxacalix[4]arene 1; they were further investigated by using their IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and HRMS spectra. Among these derivatives, the crystal and molecular structures of 2-aminomethyl-pyridine-substituted dihomooxacalix[4]arene 4f (obtained from methanol) have been determined by X-ray diffraction. In the case of the inhibition assay of cell growth, we evaluated the effects on four select tumor cell lines (MCF-7, HepG2, SKOV3, and HeLa), as well as the normal cell lines of HUVEC, using paclitaxel as the positive control drug. It was found that the derivatives 4d-4f, 4i, 4k, and 4l could inhibit tumoral activity up to varying degrees. Mechanistically, the cell cycle analysis demonstrated that dihomooxacalix[4]arene N-heterocyclic derivatives could induce apoptosis of MCF cells. In addition, the results of the western blot and immunofluorescence studies revealed the upregulation of the protein expression levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3, as well as the downregulation of Bcl-2, which are in good agreement with the corresponding inhibitory potencies. Therefore, these findings suggest that N-heterocyclic derivatives based on the dihomooxacalix[4]arene scaffold are promising candidates for use against cancer.

Abstract
In recent decades, considerable research attention has been devoted to new synthetic procedures for thiacyclophanes. Thiacyclophanes are widely used as host molecules for the molecular recognition of organic compounds as well as metals. Herein, we report the selective and high-yielding synthesis of novel alternate-linked-meta-para-thiacyclophanes. These novel thiacyclophanes are selectively synthesized in high-yielding procedures. Furthermore, post-functionalization of the phenolic moieties was successfully performed. The 3D structure of the alternate-linked-meta-para-[22.12]thiacyclophane was further elucidated via X-ray crystallographic analysis.

A Hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arene-Based Ditopic Receptor for Alkylammonium Ions Controlled by Ag⁺ Ions. Molecules 2018; 23:molecules23020467.

Abstract
A receptor cone-1 based on a hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arene bearing three pyridyl groups was successfully synthesized, which has a C3-symmetric conformation and is capable of binding alkylammonium and metal ions simultaneously in a cooperative fashion. It can bind alkylammonium ions through the π-cavity formed by three aryl rings. This behaviour is consistent with the cone-in/cone-out conformational rearrangement needed to reorganize the cavity for endo-complexation. As a C3-symmetrical pyridyl-substituted calixarene, receptor cone-1 can also bind an Ag+ ion, and the nitrogen atoms are turned towards the inside of the cavity and interact with Ag+. After complexation of tris(2-pyridylamide) derivative receptor cone-1 with Ag+, the original C3-symmetry was retained and higher complexation selectivity for n-BuNH3+ versus t-BuNH3+ was observed. Thus, it is believed that this receptor will have a role to play in the sensing, detection, and recognition of Ag+ and n-BuNH3+ ions.

Abstract
In this research, we report the regioselective synthesis of methylene-bridged naphthalene oligomers from 2,6-dialkoxyl naphthanene and paraformaldehyde by using p-TsOH as the catalyst and CH2Cl2 as the solvent. The structures were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Their host-guest chemistry with organic cations was studied, and optimal naphthalene numbers in the oligomers were revealed for different guests. In addition, the reason for the unsuccessful synthesis of methylene-bridged naphthalene macrocycles was discussed.

Abstract
The regioselective synthesis of mono-O-alkylated homooxacalix[3]arene is accomplished for the first time. The synthetic route relies on two key steps: (i) a facile protection of two OH groups at the lower rim of the homooxacalix[3]arene and (ii) the deprotection of 9-anthrylmethyl groups via the Pd/C-catalyzed hydrogenation under atmospheric hydrogen. An efficient protection-deprotection strategy for the functionalization of homooxacalix[3]arene is presented.

Abstract
The molecular "transformer", oxatub[4]arene, was found to be able to host a wide range of organic cations. The strong binding ability is believed to originate from its four interconvertible and deep-cavity conformers. The binding behavior of such adaptable receptors may provide implications for molecular recognition in nature.

Abstract
The iteroselective "all-but-one" carbamatation methodology has been successfully extended to homooxacalixarenes and used for the selective and controlled synthesis of homooxacalixarene-monoquinones and calixarene-monoquinones. These moquinone derivatives constitute interesting molecular platforms that, until now, were inaccessible through any efficient means.

Abstract
We report a smart macrocycle with four interconvertible cavities, which can select the best-fit cavity for a given guest.
There are a large number of synthetic macrocyclic receptors in the literature. No particular one is suitable for all guests or purposes. For a broader guest binding scope or multiple purposes, a macrocycle with multiple interconvertible cavities will be advantageous. Here, we report a naphthalene-based macrocyclic receptor with an adaptable cavity, namely oxatub[4]arene. It has four representative conformations resulting from the flipping of naphthalene rings, each with a deep and well-defined cavity. Different guests select one host conformer or a combination of conformers. All the four conformers have been detected and characterized based on 2D NMR spectra and X-ray single crystal structures. Thermodynamically, these conformers constitute a reservoir, that responds to the structural changes of guests, and thus maximizes the association free energies. This smart macrocycle may provide a new platform for the construction of molecular machines and devices or stimuli-responsive materials.

X-ray analyses of two products were performed. Applications of the products in asymmetric catalytic hydrogen transfer reactions are described. A protocol is presented to multi-substitute calix[4]arene at the methylene bridges, resulting in, e.g., 2,6-carboxyl-all-tert-butyl all-methoxy-calix[4]arene.

Abstract
Calix[4]resorcinarene polyhydrazide (CPH) protected water dispersible fluorescent silver nanaoparticles (AgNps) were prepared by one-pot method using water soluble CPH and AgNO₃. (CPH) bearing hydrazide group on its periphery acts as a reducing agent and its web type of structure as a stabilizing agent for the formation of calix protected silver nanoparticles (CPH-AgNps). CPH-AgNps were found to be highly stable over 120 days at room temperature and at varied pH. CPH-AgNps were characterized by UV/Vis-spectroscopy, particle size analyzer (PSA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). Duly characterized nanoparticles were explored for their application as sensitive and selective fluorescent chemosensors for various metal ions. It was found that nanoparticles were selective and sensitive only for Fe(3+) ions with the linear range of detection from 0.1 μM to 10 μM. CPH-AgNps were also found to exhibit good antimicrobial activity when compared with standard Chloramphenicol. The selectivity and antimicrobial activity of CPH-AgNps suggests its potential use as a sensor for Fe(III) ions in ecosystems prone to industrial pollution and as an antimicrobial agent in biological applications.
