Naphthalimide?Based Fluorescent Polymers for Molecular Detection

The beginning of the 21st century was marked by intensive development fiber-optic sensors. New functional materials with excellent sensory properties are required to design such Fluorescent probes for neutral and charged molecules constantly developing. However, only a small part reported successfully converted into sensing polymers found real-world applications. A great challenge is retain probe in polymer matrix. purpose this review understand how changed upon incorporation reveal successful approaches. focuses on use naphthalimide-based construction polymers. literature overview presented according nature guest targeted quantitative detection: cations, anions, organic molecules.
