An Amine/Azine Functionalized MOF as a New Fluorescent Probe for Selective Sensing of Metal Ions

An amine/imine functionalized microporous MOF as a new fluorescent probe exhibiting selective sensing of Fe3+ and Al3+ over mixed metal ions

Nowadays metal-organic frameworks with multiple luminescent centers are very fascinating as multifunctional luminescent material because of their luminescence properties, which could be systematically tuned by deliberate use of organic ligands and metal ions. In this research, we explored a microporous mixed-ligand MOF for highly selective and sensitive detection of metal ions. A two-fold inter...

A bispyrene derivative as a selective fluorescent probe for RNA.

A novel bispyrene compound was synthesized to selectively detect RNA through excimer emission "turn-on" in aqueous solution at physiological pH (7.4). The compound was used to successfully image RNA in HeLa cells.

An imidazole-functionalized polyacetylene: convenient synthesis and selective chemosensor for metal ions and cyanide.

A new light-emitting polyacetylene bearing imidazole moieties in the side chain (), was conveniently prepared through a postfunctionalization strategy, as a sensory polymer to selectively report the presence of Cu2+ (with a detection limit of 1.48 ppm) based on the fluorescence "turn-off". Interestingly, the quenched luminescence of by Cu2+ could be turned on after the addition of CN-, making a...

Selective ratiometric detection of mercury(II) ions in water with an acridizinium-based fluorescent probe.

The integration of a selective Hg2+ receptor unit, 1,4-dioxa-7,13-dithia-10-azacyclopentadecane, into the 9-aminoacridizinium fluorophore provides a fluorescent probe which allows a selective ratiometric detection of Hg2+ in water.
