An Indole-Based Fluorescent Chemosensor for Detecting Zn²⁺ in Aqueous Media and Zebrafish.

ABSTRACT: An indole-based fluorescent chemosensor IH-Sal was synthesized to detect Zn²⁺. IH-Sal displayed a marked fluorescence increment with Zn²⁺. The detection limit (0.41 μM) of IH-Sal for Zn²⁺ was greatly below that suggested by the World Health Organization. IH-Sal can quantify Zn²⁺ in real water samples. More significantly, IH-Sal could determine and depict the presence of Zn²⁺ in zebrafish. The detecting mechanism of IH-Sal toward Zn²⁺ was illustrated by fluorescence and UV-visible spectroscopy, DFT calculations, ¹H NMR titration and ESI mass.

A Novel Thiophene-Based Fluorescent Chemosensor for the Detection of Zn2+ and CN-: Imaging Applications in Live Cells and Zebrafish.

Project description:A novel fluorescent turn-on chemosensor DHADC ((E)-3-((4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzylidene)amino)-2,3-dihydrothiophene-2-carboxamide) has been developed and used to detect Zn2+ and CN-. Compound DHADC displayed a notable fluorescence increase with Zn2+. The limit of detection (2.55 ± 0.05 ?M) for zinc ion was far below the standard (76 ?M) of the WHO (World Health Organization). In particular, compound DHADC could be applied to determine Zn2+ in real samples, and to image Zn2+ in both HeLa cells and zebrafish. Additionally, DHADC could detect CN- through a fluorescence enhancement with little inhibition with the existence of other types of anions. The detection processes of compound DHADC for Zn2+ and CN- were demonstrated with various analytical methods like Job plots, 1H NMR titrations, and ESI-Mass analyses.

A Highly Selective and Sensitive Fluorescent Chemosensor for Detecting Al3+ Ion in Aqueous Solution and Plant Systems.

Project description:The solubilized form of aluminum, Al3+, is present under acid soil conditions and toxic to both animals and plants. Detecting and quantifying Al3+ is vital for both chemistry and biology. A new Schiff-based fluorescent turn-on sensor (probe L) for the selective detection of the Al3+ ion was synthesized by coupling 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde and 2-aminoisoindoline-1,3-dione, and the structure was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectra. The probe L exhibited an excellent selective and sensitive response to the Al3+ ion over other metal ions in DMSO-H?O (1:9 v/v). Fluorescence quantification revealed that probe L was promising for the detection and accumulation of Al3+. Treating rice seedlings with Al3+ at 25?200 ?M inhibited their growth. Al3+ treatment produced reactive oxygen species in rice roots. Practical applications of the fluorescent probe for the quantification of Al3+ in water samples and rice seedlings are demonstrated. Detecting the Al3+ ion with the probe L is easy and a potential alternative to existing analytical methods. The method can be used for detecting the Al3+ content of aqueous solution and plant systems. The novel fluorescent probe L has good potential for monitoring Al3+ content in the environment and biological systems.

A Colorimetric Chemosensor Based on a Nozoe Azulene That Detects Fluoride in Aqueous/Alcoholic Media.

Project description:Colorimetry is an advantageous method for detecting fluoride in drinking water in a resource-limited context, e. g., in parts of the developing world where excess fluoride intake leads to harmful health effects. Here we report a selective colorimetric chemosensor for fluoride that employs an azulene as the reporter motif and a pinacolborane as the receptor motif. The chemosensor, NAz-6-Bpin, is prepared using the Nozoe azulene synthesis, which allows for its rapid and low-cost synthesis. The chemosensor gives a visually observable response to fluoride both in pure organic solvent and also in water/alcohol binary solvent mixtures.

Highly selective fluorescent chemosensor for Zn2+ derived from inorganic-organic hybrid magnetic core/shell Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles.

Project description:Magnetic nanoparticles with attractive optical properties have been proposed for applications in such areas as separation and magnetic resonance imaging. In this paper, a simple and novel fluorescent sensor of Zn2+ was designed with 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde [DTH] covalently grafted onto the surface of magnetic core/shell Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles [NPs] (DTH-Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs) using the silanol hydrolysis approach. The DTH-Fe3O4@SiO2 inorganic-organic hybrid material was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, X-ray power diffraction, diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform, UV-visible absorption and emission spectrometry. The compound DTH exhibited fluorescence response towards Zn2+ and Mg2+ ions, but the DTH-Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs only effectively recognized Zn2+ ion by significant fluorescent enhancement in the presence of various ions, which is due to the restriction of the N-C rotation of DTH-Fe3O4@SiO2 NPs and the formation of the rigid plane with conjugation when the DTH-Fe3O4@SiO2 is coordinated with Zn2+. Moreover, this DTH-Fe3O4@SiO2 fluorescent chemosensor also displayed superparamagnetic properties, and thus, it can be recycled by magnetic attraction.

Coumarin-Based Dual Chemosensor for Colorimetric and Fluorescent Detection of Cu2+ in Water Media.

Project description:A novel coumarin derivative (5) was synthesized and used as a colorimetric and fluorescent probe for selective detection of Cu2+ ions in the presence of other metal ions, with the detection limits of 5.7 and 4.0 ppb, respectively. Cu2+ ion reacts with probe 5 to form a 1:1 stoichiometry complex, resulting in a remarkable redshift of absorption maximum from 460 to 510 nm, as well as almost completely quenching fluorescence intensity of probe 5 at the wavelength of 536 nm. These changes can be distinctly observed by naked eyes. In addition, the working pH range of probe 5 is wide and suitable for physiological conditions, thus probe 5 may be used for detection of Cu2+ ions in living cells. The stable structures of probe 5 and its 1:1 complex with Cu2+ ion were optimized at the PBE0/6-31+G(d) level of theory. The presence and characteristics of bonds in compounds were studied through atoms in a molecule and natural bond orbital analysis. The formation of the complex led to a strong transfer of electron density from probe 5 as a ligand to Cu2+ ion, resulting in breaking the π-electron conjugated system, which is the cause of fluorescence quenching and color change of 5-Cu2+ complex.

Highly Sensitive Dansyl-Based Chemosensor for Detection of Cu2+ in Aqueous Solution and Zebrafish.

Project description:A new dansyl-based chemosensor (2-(4-((5-(dimethylamino)naphthalen-1-yl)sulfonyl)piperazin-1-yl)-N-(quinolin-8-yl)acetamide) (DC) for detecting Cu2+ was synthesized and characterized. DC showed great selectivity to Cu2+ by a fluorescent "on-off" detection method. Job plot, ESI-mass spectroscopy, and 1H NMR titration suggested a 1 to 1 binding mode between DC and Cu2+. The detection limit was determined to be 43 nM, which is greatly below the WHO guidelines. In addition, DC can be applied to real samples and zebrafish imaging. The fluorescence quenching mechanism was proposed as the enhancement of intramolecular charge transfer with calculations.

A rhodamine-based fluorescent sensor for selective detection of Cu2+ in aqueous media: synthesis and spectroscopic properties.

Project description:Two new chemosensors, rhodamine B derivative bearing 3-formyl-6-nitrochromone (L 1 ) and 3-formyl-6-methylchromone (L 2 ) units were designed and synthesized using microwave irradiation for the selective detection of Cu2+ in aqueous media. Copper triggers the formation of highly fluorescent ring-open spirolactam. The fluorescence intensity was remarkably increased upon the addition of Cu2+ within a minute, while the other metal ions caused no significant effect. More importantly, the resulting complexes can be used as a reversible fluorescence sensor for CN-. The recognition ability of the sensors was investigated by fluorescence titration, Job's plot, 1H NMR spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations.

Tetraphenylethene-Based Fluorescent Chemosensor with Mechanochromic and Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) Properties for the Selective and Sensitive Detection of Hg2+ and Ag+ Ions in Aqueous Media: Application to Environmental Analysis.

Project description:It is critical to design a novel and simple bifunctional sensor for the selective and sensitive detection of ions in an aqueous media in environmental samples. As a result, in this study, tetraphenylethene hydrazinecarbothioamide (TPE-PVA), known as probe 1, was successfully synthesized and characterized as having impressive photophysical phenomena such as aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and mechanochromic properties by applying mechanical force to the solid of probe 1. The emission of the solid of probe 1 changed from turquoise blue to lemon yellow after grinding, from lemon yellow to parakeet green after annealing at 160 °C, and to arctic blue after fuming with DCM. Such characteristics could lead to a variety of applications in several fields. The probe was implemented and demonstrated remarkable selectivity and sensitivity toward mercury(II) and silver(I) ions by substantially switching off emission over other cations. Following an extensive photophysical analysis, it was discovered that detection limits (LOD) as low as 0.18344 and 0.2384 μg mL-1 for Hg2+ and Ag+, respectively, are possible with a quantum yield (Φ) of 2.26. Probe 1 was also explored as a Hg2+ and Ag+ paper strip-based sensor and kit for practical use. The binding mechanisms of probe 1 (TPE-PVA) with Hg2+ and Ag+ were confirmed by 1H NMR titration. These results could lead to the development of reliable onsite Hg2+ and Ag+ fluorescent probes in the future.
