2,6-Diformyl-4-methylphenol fluorophore derived Schiff base sensors detect metal ions such as Zn2+, Al3+, Hg2+, Cd2+, Sn2+ and Cu2+ with high sensitivity and selectivity through changes in fluorescence intensity based on CHEF, ICT, FRET, ESIPT, C=N isomerization and PET mechanism. Several anions viz. HPO4 2–, H2PO4 –, PO4 3–, AsO3 3–, H2AsO4 –, AsO2 –, PPi (pyrophosphate), I–, F– and N3 – were also detected through intermolecular hydrogen bonding (between sensor and anion) based on TICT, PET, CHEF, ESIPT and aggregation induced emission mechanism. Selectivity and sensitivity for these metal ions and anions were achieved by introducing various amines to core fluorophore 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol. Majority of these fluorescent sensors were Zn2+ ion selective. Due to the filled d10 electronic configuration of Zn2+ ion usually does not show deactivation of excited state via any electron or energy transfer mechanisms. Both solvent dependent and independent ten multi-ion selective sensors are found. This review will consolidate on 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol derived Schiff base fluorescent chemosensors.

1-(3-chlorophenyl)piperazine (mCPP) is a wide spread new psychoactive substance produces stimulant and hallucinogenic effects similar to those sought from ecstasy. Hence, in the recent years, mCPP has been introduced by the organized crime through the darknet as a part of the illicit ecstasy market with a variable complex profile of pharmacologically active substances that pose problematic risk patterns among people who take these seized products. Accordingly, the design of selective sensors for the determination of mCPP is a very important demand. In this respect, a supramolecular architecture; [Na(15-crown-5)][BPh4] from the assembly of 15-crown-5 and sodium tetraphenylboron has been utilized as an ionophore, for the first time in the selective recognition of mCPP in conjunction with potassium tetrakis(p-chlorophenyl)borate and dioctylphthalate through polymeric membrane ion sensors. The ionophore exhibited a strong binding affinity that resulted in a high sensitivity with a slope closed to the ideal Nernstian value; 58.9 ± 0.43 mV/decade, a larger dynamic range from 10−6 to 10−2 M, a lower limit of detection down to 5.0 × 10−7 M and a fast response time of 5 s. Very important also is it was afforded excellent selectivity towards mCPP over psychoactive substances of major concern, providing a potentially useful system for the determination of mCPP in the illicit market. On comparison with the natural β-cyclodextrin as an ionophore, it exhibited more sensitivity and selectivity estimated to be the superior.

Abstract Background The importance of recognizing and quantifying chemical anions/cations found in various types of samples, including environmental and biological samples, is extensively studied. Recent findings suggest the possibility of health risk caused by organic dimethylarsininc acid (DMAs) compound itself, not its arsenic inorganic metabolite. Objective This article aims to fabricate polymeric-membrane electrochemical sensors with high sensitivity and selectivity for dimethylarsinate (cacodylic acid sodium salt, DMAs) based on silver diethyldithiocarbamate (AgDDTC) and CuIIphthalocyanine (CuPC) as novel neutral carriers and their applications. Methods DMAs calibration relations and titrations were carried out using a potentiometric workstation equipped with a double-junction reference electrode, in conjunction with the fabricated working electrodes. Results Sensors revealed fast and stable anionic response with near-Nernstian slopes (-38.6 ± 0.9 and -31.5 ± 0.6 mV/decade), within concentration ranges (1.7x10−5 - 1.0x10−2 and 3.0x10−5 - 1.0x10−2 M) and detection limits (1.0x10−5 and 1.6x10−5 M) for AgDDTC- and CuPC-based sensors, respectively. Sensors are characterized with their extended life-time, signal stability, high precision and short response times. Selectivity for cacodylate anion over most common anions is tested for proposed electrodes. Sensors were satisfactorily applied for DMAs quantification in biological matrices with recoveries ranging between 96.2 and 99.0%. Membrane sensors were interfaced with a flow-through system for continuous monitoring of DMAs. The sensors were tested for the assay of different amino acids based on their reaction with cacodylate, where reaction end-points were monitored with the proposed electrodes using direct potentiometric determination and flow injection analysis (FIA).
