Coordination chemistry plays an essential role in the design of photoluminescent probes for
metal ions. Metal coordination to organic dyes induces distinct optical responses which …

Molecules that experience a change in their fluorescence emission due to the effect of
fluorescence enhancement upon binding events, like chemical reactions or a change in their …

Heavy metal ions are highly toxic and widely spread as environmental pollutants. New
strategies are being developed to simultaneously detect and remove these toxic ions …

The past ten years have seen a spectacular development of chemical sensors based on the
monomer–excimer dual luminescence of aromatic systems, such as pyrene. Either in the …

A fluorescent peptidyl chemosensor for the detection of heavy metal ions in aqueous
solution as well as in cells was synthesized on the basis of the peptide receptor for the metal …

Phosphazenes, one of the most important classes of organophosphorus compounds
containing phosphorus (V) with double bonds between P and N, can be cyclic molecules or …

Synthesis of a novel pyrene derivative sensor (Py-Met) based on amino acid and its
fluorescent behavior for Hg (II) in water was investigated. Upon Hg (II) binding, the Py-Met …

Novel pyrene-and anthracene-based Schiff base derivatives (A1 and P1) were designed
and prepared for selective “turn-on” fluorescence determination of Hg 2+ ions in food and …

Chemosensors possess significant importance in biological and environmental systems for
the detection of various chemical species. This review commences with a short description …

A new, easy-to-prepare and highly selective pyrene-linked tris-triazole amine fluorescent
chemosensor has been designed from tripropargylamine and pyrene azide using Cu (I) …
