A Cu²⁺-Selective Probe Based on Phenanthro-Imidazole Derivative.

ABSTRACT: A novel fluorescent Probe 1, based on phenanthro-imidazole has been developed as an efficient chemosensor for the trace detection of copper ions (Cu²⁺). Probe 1 demonstrated sensitive fluorescence quenching upon binding with Cu²⁺ through 1:1 stoichiometric chelation. The detection limit for Cu²⁺ ions was projected through linear quenching fitting to be as low as 2.77 × 10^-8 M (or 1.77 ppb). The sensing response was highly selective towards Cu²⁺ with minimal influence from other common metal ions, facilitating the practical application of Probe 1 in trace detection.

A Highly Sensitive and Selective Fluorescein-Based Cu2+ Probe and Its Bioimaging in Cell.

Project description:Copper is a vital trace metal in human body, which plays the significant roles in amounts of physiological and pathological processes. The application of copper-selective probe has attracted great interests from environmental tests to life process research, yet a few of sensitive Cu2+ tests based on on-site analysis have been reported. In this paper, a novel fluorescein-based fluorescent probe N4 was designed, synthesized, and characterized, which exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity to Cu2+ comparing with other metal ions in ethanol-water (1/1, v/v) solution. The probe N4 bonded with Cu2+ to facilitate the ring-opening, and an obvious new band at 525 nm in the fluorescence spectroscopy appeared, which could be used for naked-eye detection of Cu2+ within a broad pH range of 6-9. Meanwhile, a good linearity between the fluorescence intensity and the concentrations of Cu2+ ranged 0.1-1.5 eq. was observed, and the limit of detection of N4 to Cu2+ was calculated to be as low as 1.20 μm. In addition, the interaction mode between N4 and Cu2+ was found to be 1:1 by the Job's plot and mass experiment. Biological experiments showed that the probe N4 exhibited low biological toxicity and could be applied for Cu2+ imaging in living cells. The significant color shift associated with the production of the N4-Cu2+ complex at low micromolar concentrations under UV light endows N4 with a promising probe for field testing of trace Cu2+ ions.

A curcumin-based AIEE-active fluorescent probe for Cu2+ detection in aqueous solution.

Project description:Curcuminoids have been extensively investigated as metal ion probes, but the intrinsic aggregation-caused-quenching (ACQ) characteristic of curcumin would hinder their applications in aqueous solution. Fortunately, tetraphenylethylene (TPE) could endow the compounds with aggregation-induced emission (AIE)/aggregation-induced enhanced emission (AIEE) characteristics to eliminate the ACQ effect. According to this strategy, a series of TPE-modified curcumin derivatives L1-4 were prepared and studied for their AIEE properties. Among the four TPE-curcumin analogues, only L1 particles have been successfully used as an on-off fluorescence probe for detecting Cu2+ in aqueous solution. The fluorescence titration experiment determined its detection limit of 1.49 × 10-7 mol L-1, and the binding ratio between L1 and Cu2+ was estimated as 2 : 1, which was in agreement with the results of high resolution mass spectrum and Job's plot. In addition, the binding constant was evaluated as 6.77 × 102 M-1 using a Benesi-Hildebrand plot. Finally, the obtained L1-based indicator paper showed significant fluorescence response to Cu2+ aqueous solution. This TPE-modified strategy improves the detection capability of curcumin probe in aqueous solution and provides a feasible way to obtain other probes with ACQ characteristics.

Pyrene-Based "Turn-Off" Probe with Broad Detection Range for Cu2+ , Pb2+ and Hg2+ Ions.

Project description:Detection of metals in different environments with high selectivity and specificity is one of the prerequisites of the fight against environmental pollution with these elements. Pyrenes are well suited for the fluorescence sensing in different media. The applied sensing principle typically relies on the formation of intra- and intermolecular excimers, which is however limiting the sensitivity range due to masking of e. g. quenching effects by the excimer emission. Herein we report a highly selective, structurally rigid chemical sensor based on the monomer fluorescence of pyrene moieties bearing triazole groups. This sensor can quantitatively detect Cu2+ , Pb2+ and Hg2+ in organic solvents over a broad concentrations range, even in the presence of ubiquitous ions such as Na+ , K+ , Ca2+ and Mg2+ . The strongly emissive sensor's fluorescence with a long lifetime of 165 ns is quenched by a 1 : 1 complex formation upon addition of metal ions in acetonitrile. Upon addition of a tenfold excess of the metal ion to the sensor, agglomerates with a diameter of about 3 nm are formed. Due to complex interactions in the system, conventional linear correlations are not observed for all concentrations. Therefore, a critical comparison between the conventional Job plot interpretation, the method of Benesi-Hildebrand, and a non-linear fit is presented. The reported system enables the specific and robust sensing of medically and environmentally relevant ions in the health-relevant nM range and could be used e. g. for the monitoring of the respective ions in waste streams.

A Coumarin-Based Fluorescent Probe for Ratiometric Detection of Cu2+ and Its Application in Bioimaging.

Project description:The fluorescent probe L, based on naphthalimide-modified coumarin, was designed, synthesized, and characterized, which could recognize Cu2+ from other cations selectively and sensitively in HEPES buffer (10 mM, Ph = 7. 4)/CH3CN (1:4, V/V). When the probe L interacted with Cu2+, the color and the fluorescent intensity changed obviously and it provided the naked-eye detection for Cu2+. The recognition mode between them was achieved by Job's plot, IR, MS, SEM, and 1HNMR. In addition, test strips made from L could still interact with Cu2+ in tap water effectively. The limit of detection (LOD) of L was 3.5 × 10-6 M. Additionally, the density functional theory (DFT) calculation method was used to analyze the action mechanism of L toward Cu2+. Importantly, the fluorescent probe L could demonstrate favorable selectivity toward Cu2+ in Caenorhabditis elegans. Thus, L was considered to have some potential for application in bioimaging.

Sugar-Based Phase-Selective Supramolecular Self-Assembly System for Dye Removal and Selective Detection of Cu2+ Ions.

Project description:Simple, effective, and eco-friendly sugar-based phase-selective gelators were synthesized at a low cost. They showed high gelling ability toward a wide range of solvents at lower concentrations (minimum gelation concentration ∼0.3%). Preliminary tests reveal that these low molecular weight organogelators can immediately and phase-selectively gel benzene, toluene, petrol, and kerosene in water at room temperature. We also identified G13 in toluene as the good gelator, and the corresponding organogel proficiently removes water-soluble dyes from their concentrated aqueous solutions. This efficient removal of toxic organic solvents and dyes from water suggests promising applications in removing organic substances from contaminated water resources. The thermoreversible gel exhibits effective rechargeability up to five cycles of burning and gelation, which imply the flame stability of the gel. Interestingly, these compounds had a high detection ability toward Cu2+ ions with a state change from gel to the solution. The physical justification for gelation mechanisms and the molecular interaction with metal ions were further confirmed by computational studies.

Bifunctional Cu2+/Fe3+ Probe with Independent Signal Outputs Based on a Photochromic Diarylethene with a Dansylhydrazine Unit.

Project description:A novel dual-response fluorescent sensor based on a diarylethene photoswitching unit and a dansylhydrazine functional group has been synthesized. The compound exhibited high selectivity for Fe3+ and Cu2+ with independent fluorescence signal outputs. In the presence of Fe3+, the sensor formed a 1:1 metal complex, resulting in a remarkable "turn-off" fluorescence signal. On the other hand, its fluorescence intensity was notably enhanced (turn-on) and a color change from bright yellow to bright blue was observed when the sensor interacted with Cu2+, which was due to the hydrolysis reaction of the dansyl acid dye, as confirmed by high-resolution mass spectrometry-electrospray ionization and infrared spectrum. The detection limits were 9.73 × 10-8 mol L-1 for Fe3+ and 3.49 × 10-7 mol L-1 for Cu2+, respectively. From the unimolecular platform, two molecular logic circuits were constructed using the fluorescence emission intensity at 557/494 nm (Fe3+/Cu2+) as the outputs and the combined stimuli of Fe3+/ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, Cu2+, and UV/vis as the inputs. In addition, the sensor was successfully used to determine Fe3+ in water samples from Ganjiang River and soil samples from Nanchang fields.

A Highly Selective and Sensitive Fluorescent Turn-Off Probe for Cu2+ Based on a Guanidine Derivative.

Project description:A new highly selective and sensitive fluorescent probe for Cu2+, N-n-butyl-4-(1'-cyclooctene-1',3',6'-triazole)-1,8-naphthalimide (L), was synthesized and evaluated. The structure of compound L was characterized via IR, ¹H-NMR, 13C-NMR and HRMS. The fluorescent probe was quenched by Cu2+ with a 1:1 binding ratio and behaved as a "turn-off" sensor. An efficient and sensitive spectrofluorometric method was developed for detecting and estimating trace levels of Cu2+ in EtOH/H?O. The ligand exhibited excitation and emission maxima at 447 and 518 nm, respectively. The equilibrium binding constant of the ligand with Cu2+ was 1.57 × 10? M-1, as calculated using the Stern.

Novel Quinoline-Based Thiazole Derivatives for Selective Detection of Fe3+, Fe2+, and Cu2+ Ions.

Project description:New quinoline-based thiazole derivatives QPT and QBT were synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopic and single-crystal X-ray crystallographic studies. The metal-sensing properties of the probes were further examined by absorption and fluorescence spectrometry. The fluorescence intensity of QPT and QBT was remarkably quenched during the addition of Fe3+, Fe2+, and Cu2+ ions in THF/H2O (1:1) at pH = 7.4 in HEPES buffer, while the addition of other metal ions did not affect the fluorescence intensity of the ligands. The detection ability of the probes QPT and QBT was further investigated by titration with various equivalents of metal ions, optimized pH ranges for detection, and reversibility with Na2EDTA for biological applications.

Bio-Evaluation of 99mTc-Labeled Homodimeric Chalcone Derivative as Amyloid-β-Targeting Probe.

Project description:Chalcone derivatives have been successfully utilized for a range of biological applications and can cross the blood-brain barrier easily. β-amyloid-specific bis-chalcone derivative, 6,9-bis(carboxymethyl)-14-(4-[(E)-3-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)acryloyl]phenoxy)-3-(2-[(2-(4-[(E)-3-(4-(dimethylamino)phenyl)acryloyl]phenoxy)ethyl)amino]-2-oxoethyl)-11-oxo-3,6,9,12-tetraazatetradecanoic acid, DT(Ch)2, was analyzed using molecular modeling to explain the binding modes of the ligand with amyloid fibril and monomer followed by 99mTc-complexation in 95% yield and 98.7% efficiency. High-binding specificity of the radiocomplex was established following in vitro evaluation against 100-fold excess of DT(Ch)2. 99mTc-DT(Ch)2 exhibited <3% trans-complexation in human serum after 24 h, indicating high stability. A fast clearance rate in pharmacokinetics studies displayed a biphasic pattern with t 1/2(F) = 30 min ± 0.09 and t 1/2(S) = 4 h 20 min ± 0.06. In vivo single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging in rabbits reiterated the pharmacokinetics data with initially high brain uptake followed by rapid washout. Biodistribution studies confirmed the initial brain uptake as 1.16 ± 0.02% ID/g after 2 min and the brain2min/brain30min ratio was 3.74. Radioactivity distribution in the brain was >40% in the cingulate cortex followed by >25% in the hippocampus, a distribution pattern aligned to Alzheimer's affected brain regions. Radiocomplex also displayed rapid plasma clearance followed by hepatobolic and renal modes of excretion.

Aggregation-Induced Emission-Active Hydrazide-Based Probe: Selective Sensing of Al3+, HF2 -, and Nitro Explosives.

Project description:(E)-N'-((2-Hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)picolinohydrazide (H-PNAP) shows aggregation-induced emission (AIE) strictly in a 90% water/MeOH (v/v) mixture at 540 nm, and the solid-state emission is blue-shifted to 509 nm upon excitation at 400 nm. The AIE activity of H-PNAP is selectively quenched by 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) and 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) out of different nitroaromatic compounds with a limit of detection (LOD) of 7.79 × 10-7 and 9.08 × 10-7 M, respectively. The probe is nonemissive in aqueous medium (4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid, HEPES buffer, pH 7.2); however, it shows a strong emission to Al3+ (λem, 490 nm) in the presence of 17 other biological metal ions, and the LOD is 2.09 nM which is far below the WHO recommended value (7.41 mM). The emission of the [Al(PNAP)(NO3)2] complex is quenched by HF2 - (F- and PO4 3- are weak quencher), and the LOD is as low as 15 nM. The probable mechanism of the sensing feature of the probe has been authenticated by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance titration, mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Benesi-Hildebrand plot, and Job's plot in each case. The probe has some practical applications such as recovery of Al3+ from the drinking water sample, construction of the INHIBIT logic gate, and detection kits for Al3+ and TNP/DNP by simple paper test strips. The probe, H-PNAP, has successfully been applied to the detection of intracellular Al3+ and HF2 - ions in the human breast cancer cell, MDA-MB-468.
