A series of macrocycles, including crown ethers, cyclodextrins, calixarenes, pillararenes and
cucurbiturils, are well known to be able to associate various organic/inorganic/biological …

Calixarenes and pillararenes are cyclic oligomers containing repeating units of phenol and
methane. The modification of ionized groups bring calixarenes and pillararenes derivates …

The development of probes for specific thiophenol detection is of great importance, due to
the toxicity of thiophenols and their derivatives in the environment. In the present study, a …

Steric hindrance-enforced distortion as a general strategy for the design of fluorescence “turn-on”
cyanide probes - Chemical Communications (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/C3CC46008H …

A benzoquinolizine coumarin-based fluorescent probe was developed for detecting
thiophenols, demonstrating the superior fluorescence properties caused by the decay of the …

Two coumarin salen-based sensors CS1 and CS2 can exhibit a pronounced fluorescence
enhancement response toward Mg2+ as high as 36-fold (CS1) and 111-fold (CS2) in the …

For the first time, a new near-IR “turn-on” fluorescent chemosensor with high selectivity for
Hg2+ ions was designed according to the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) …

A series of 14 meso-polyarylamine-BODIPY (borondipyrromethene) hybrids of the general
structure A were synthesized. Two methods were used to prepare them. The first protocol …

Over one century after its discovery, pyrylium salt chemistry has been extensively applied in
preparing light emitters, photocatalysts, and sensitizers. In most of these studies, pyrylium …

Background Tricresyl phosphate (TCP), a typical organic phosphorus flame retardant
(OPFR), is an emerging pollutant that causes great concern in recent years due to its high …
