Multi-emissive 1D Cd(II) polymers with a biphenyl bridged bisazamacrocycle for ratiometric discrimination of nitroaromatics and selective visual detection of picric acid

Three one-dimensional ladder-like coordination polymers consisting of Cd₆ metalloring as the building unit, {[Cd₄LCl₄]·3H₂O}_n ( 1 ), {[Cd₃L(ClO₄)(H₂O)]ClO₄·3H₂O}_n ( 2 ), and {[Cd₆(L)₂(NO₃)₂(CH₃OH)(H₂O)](NO₃)₂·2CH₃OH·5H₂O}_n ( 3 ), were solvothermally constructed from a carboxylic functionalized bisazamacrocyclic ligand 4,4′-bis((4,7-bis(2-carboxyethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclonon-1-yl)methyl)-1,1′-biphenyl (H₄L). These compounds dispersed in ethanol show the multiple emissions originating from the monomeric and intramolecularly overlapping biphenyl moieties which could be sensitively quenched by picric acid (PA) and 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) through the effective fluorescence resonance energy transfer process. The differential fluorescent responses of each compound on exposure to PA and 4-NP individually make the convenient ratiometric discrimination of two analytes based on the fluorescent intensity ratio (I₃₂₀/I₃₆₀) attainable, and 1 and 2 as ratiometric chemosensors for PA present a broad linear detection range from 4 to 300 μM with detection limits of 0.84 and 0.93 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the blue light emission of 1 under an ultraviolet lamp could be selectively quenched by PA even in the presence of all other interfering nitroaromatic pollutants, which empowers the fast visual detection of PA by naked eye.     

1,2-Dihydro-1-hydroxy-2,3,1-benzodiazaborine Bearing an Acridine Moiety as a Circular Dichroism Probe for Determination of Absolute Configuration of Mono-Alcohols

A new chiral probe molecule for mono-alcohols is developed by using 1,2-dihydro-1-hydroxy-2,3,1-benzodiazaborine (DAB) bearing an acridine moiety 1 . In the presence of mono-alcohols, DAB 1 forms borate 2 by boronic ester formation, followed by coordination of the acridine moiety to the boron atom. Borate 2 has a chiral center on the boron atom and works as a stereodynamic circular dichroism (CD) probe molecule for chiral mono-alcohols based on the π–π interaction between the acridine moiety and the carbon–carbon unsaturated moiety on mono-alcohols.     

Development of Lysosome-Targeted Fluorescent Probes for Cys by Regulating the Boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) Molecular Structure

Our previous discovery suggested that substituents on the 1,7 positions delicately modulate the sensing ability of the meso-arylmercapto boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) to biothiols. In this work, the impact of delicate modulations on the sensing ability is investigated. Therefore, 1,7-dimethyl, 3,5-diaryl substituted BODIPY is designed and developed and its conformationally restricted species with a meso-arylmercapto moiety ( DM-BDP-SAr and DM-BDP-R-SAr ) as selective fluorescent probes for Cys. Moreover, the lysosome-target probes ( Lyso-S and Lyso-D ) based on DM-BDP-SAr carrying one or two morpholinoethoxy moieties were developed. They were able to detect Cys selectively in vitro with low detection limits. Both Lyso-S and Lyso-D localized nicely in lysosomes in living HeLa cells and exhibited red fluorescence for Cys. Moreover, a novel fluorescence quenching mechanism was proposed from the calculations by density functional theory (DFT). The probes may go through intersystem crossing (from singlet excited state to triplet excited state) to result in fluorescence quenching.     

Synthesis of 5-Alkyl- and 5-Phenylamino-Substituted Azothiazole Dyes with Solvatochromic and DNA-Binding Properties

A series of new 5-mono- and 5,5′-bisamino-substituted azothiazole derivatives was synthesized from the readily available diethyl azothiazole-4,4′-dicarboxylate. This reaction most likely comprises an initial Michael-type addition by the respective primary alkyl and aromatic amines at the carbon atom C5 of the substrate. Subsequently, the resulting intermediates are readily oxidized by molecular oxygen to afford the amino-substituted azothiazole derivatives. The latter exhibit remarkably red-shifted absorption bands (λ_abs=507–661 nm) with high molar extinction coefficients and show a strong positive solvatochromism. As revealed by spectrometric titrations and circular and linear dichroism studies, the water-soluble, bis-(dimethylaminopropylamino)-substituted azo dye associates with duplex DNA by formation of aggregates along the phosphate backbone at high ligand–DNA ratios (LDR) and by intercalation at low LDR, which also leads to a significant increase of the otherwise low emission intensity at 671 nm.

基于碳量子点和罗丹明B的新型比率荧光试纸片检测水中Hg(Ⅱ)

水环境中Hg(Ⅱ)的污染对生态环境和人类健康危害极大，目前Hg(Ⅱ)的检测主要有原子光谱/质谱和电化学等方法，但存在检测仪器昂贵、操作繁琐及前处理复杂等缺点，难以在日常水环境中微量Hg(Ⅱ)现场检测的应用。因此，建立一种灵敏、准确、快捷和经济的水中Hg(Ⅱ)检测方法具有重要意义。试纸法是将普通的化学反应从玻璃仪器转移到试纸上进行的一种快速检测方法，利用试剂与目标物之间产生的化学反应，通过颜色的变化可对目标物进行定性或半定量检测，具有操作简便、快速等优点。碳量子点是一类粒径小于10 nm的碳基纳米材料，具有优异的荧光性能、较低的毒性和较高的化学稳定性。利用Hg(Ⅱ)对碳量子点的荧光具有灵敏和高效的猝灭作用，构建了一种双色比率荧光试纸片用于快速检测水中微量Hg(Ⅱ)的含量。其中，采用氮掺杂水溶性碳量子点（NCDs）作为荧光响应信号、罗丹明B（RhB）作为荧光内标信号，在单一波长（355 nm）激发下产生位于440和580 nm的双色荧光发射峰。当体系加入不同浓度Hg(Ⅱ)后，NCDs表面官能团与Hg(Ⅱ)之间的静电作用和金属配位协同作用使荧光发生猝灭，而RhB的荧光信号保持不变，利用440和580 nm双色荧光信号或其强度的比值（F₄₄₀/F₅₈₀），可实现对微量Hg(Ⅱ)的快速检测。实验对检测条件进行了优化，结果表明在HAc-NaAc缓冲液浓度为1 mmol·L-1、pH为7的条件下，F₄₄₀/F₅₈₀值与Hg(Ⅱ)浓度（0～3 μmol·L-1）呈现良好的线性关系，线性方程为F₄₄₀/F₅₈₀=-0.785 2ｃ_Hg(Ⅱ)+3.103 8，相关系数r＞0.99，以3倍标准偏差计算的检出限为2.7 nmol·L-1(n=9)。对湖水与自来水中Hg(Ⅱ)进行加标回收实验，其加标回收率在91.9%～117.9%之间，说明该方法灵敏、准确，能用于水中Hg(Ⅱ)的检测。同时，将NCDs和RhB浸渍于尼龙片上构建了双色比率荧光检测试纸片，在紫外灯（365nm）照射下可观测到试纸发射淡蓝紫色荧光。而随着Hg(Ⅱ)浓度的增加，荧光颜色从淡蓝紫色到橙色发生变化，每次检测时间只需3分钟，裸眼可检出Hg(Ⅱ)浓度低至10 nmol·L-1，实现了对水中微量Hg(Ⅱ)的灵敏、快速检测。此外，该方法对Hg(Ⅱ)的检测表现出良好的特异性。因此，基于碳量子点和罗丹明B构建的双色比率荧光试纸片具有携带方便、操作简单，以及灵敏和快速等优点，为水中微量Hg(Ⅱ)的快速检测提供了新的方法和思路。     

Development of three novel benzothiazole-based ratiometric fluorescent chemosensor for detecting of hydrazine in serum and gas phase via ESIPT process and different recognition sites

In this article, we have successfully designed and synthesized three novel ratiometric fluorescent probes BTP-LA, BTP-LB and BTP-LN for detection of hydrazine based on benzothiazole-derived fluorophores and different recognition sites. The probes BTP-LA, BTP-LB and BTP-LN displays a good fluorescence ratio emission signals, high selectivity and large emission shifts (>100 nm) toward hydrazine. The three probes BTP-LA, BTP-LB and BTP-LN can be used not only to detect hydrazine in serum, but also to detect gaseous hydrazine in air. More importantly, compared with probes BTP-LB and BTP-LN, BTP-LA has lower saturation concentration (200 µM) and detection limits (1.22 × 10^?7 M) to hydrazine.     

Fluorometric analysis of borohydrides based on reductive aldehyde-to-alcohol conversion of arylaldehydes

Fluorometric analysis of borohydride (BH₄^–) species by the reduction of arylaldehydes to the corresponding arylmethanols was investigated. 9-Anthracenecarboxaldehyde (9-AA) exhibited pronounced ratiometric fluorescence signaling behavior toward borohydride in alkaline aqueous media. The borohydride-selective signaling of 9-AA was unaffected by the presence of commonly encountered metal ions and anions. 1-Pyrenecarboxaldehyde (1-PA) also showed comparable borohydride signaling behavior. The detection limit was found to be 7.4?μM (0.11?ppm) for 9-AA and 15.7?μM (0.23?ppm) for 1-PA. The utility of the probe with μPAD as a convenient tool for the determination of borohydrides was demonstrated.     

Highly sensitive perylene tetra-(alkoxycarbonyl) based colorimetric and ratiometric probes for fluorine detection

Fluoride anion (F^?) affects environmental, biological, and chemical processes significantly. Therefore, its detection has received increasing attention, and sensitive, effective, and convenient probes for F^? detection need to be developed urgently. In this work, two perylene tetra-(alkoxycarbonyl) (PTAC) based colorimetric and ratiometric probes, P1 and P2, were developed for the detection of F^?. The interactions between F^? and these two probes were investigated by absorption, electrochemistry, ¹H NMR, and density functional methods. Both the two probes were complexed with F^? with a ratio of 1:1. The detection limits of P1 and P2 were 0.22 μM and 0.87 μM, respectively. It was worth noting that the absorption peak of P1 showed a 190 nm red shift when sensing F^?, and P1 is the largest red shift value reported in F^? probes based on PTAC derivatives. This phenomenon was resulted from the unique configuration and deprotonation of P1 that can promote the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT). This strategy provides an example for the development of other ion probes based on D-A type ICT mechanism.
