We report a new Schiff base fluorescent probe which senses ferric ion, Fe(III), with a significant fluorescence enhancement response. The probe showed high sensitivity (0.8 ppb), and fast response time (<10 s) of Fe(III) in aqueous media. In addition, the probe showed the ability to sense Fe(III) in a HeLa cancer cell line, with very low cytotoxicity. As a new bio-imaging probe for Fe(III), it gave bright fluorescent images in confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM).

An aniline-functionalized naphthalene dialdehyde Schiff base fluorescent probe L with aggregation-induced enhanced emission (AIEE) characteristics was synthesized via a simple one-step condensation reaction and exhibited excellent sensitivity and selectivity towards copper(II) ions in aqueous media with a fluorescence “ turn-off ” phenomenon. The detection limit of the probe is 1.64 × 10−8 mol·L−1. Furthermore, according to the results of the UV-vis/fluorescence titrations, Job’s plot method and 1H-NMR titrations, a 1:2 stoichiometry was identified. The binding constant between L and Cu2+ was calculated to be Ka = 1.222 × 103. In addition, the AIEE fluorescent probe L could be applied to detection in real water samples with satisfactory recoveries in the range 99.10–102.90% in lake water and 98.49–102.37% in tap water.

In the present study, a fluorescent sensor L for sensing of Ce3+ ion was designed and characterized by XRD, 1HNMR, and FTIR. Its fluorescence behavior towards metal ion was examined by fluorescence spectroscopy. Chelation-enhanced fluorescence was shown by the sensor L upon interaction with Ce3+ ion. This fluorescent sensor exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity towards Ce3+ ion in acetonitrile solution, forming 2 : 1 (L : M) complex as determined by Job’s plot. Association constant was found to be 1×107 M−1 estimated from the Benesi-Hildebrand plot. No significant interference was observed in the presence of other studied alkali, alkaline, and transition metal ions. A rapid response was observed when employed for the determination of Ce3+ ion in spiked water samples with a limit of detection equal to 3.4×10−8 M.

Abstract From the perspective of environment, civilian safety and human health it is utmost important to selectively and sensitively detect hazardous substances in the running water. In the last few decades, metal organic frameworks (MOFs) have been utilized for the detection of lethal substances in the aqueous phase using fluorescence method. Herein, a highly fluorescent MOF, Zn-MOF-1, namely, {[Zn2(pydc)2(DMF)]·2DMF}n, based on the ligand pyridine-2,5-dicarboxylic acid (H2pydc), was synthesized by employing solvothermal conditions. The Zn-MOF-1 was thoroughly characterized by crystallographic, PXRD, elemental, FTIR, and TG analysis. Single crystal data elucidated the exact structure of Zn-MOF-1. Due to its better emission spectra, the fluorescence sensing behavior of Zn-MOF-1 was checked in the aqueous medium. It was found that Zn-MOF-1 could detect Cr3+ with high sensitivity and selectivity and serve as an excellent fluorescent probe for TNP among other interfering nitroaromatic compounds in aqueous media. Furthermore, a plausible sensing mechanism has been demonstrated employing UV-Visible, fluorescence, and theoretical data. The observed Ksv values for TNP and Cr3+ are 2.1×108 M-1 and 1.46×107 M-1, respectively. Selective fluorescence quenching with high Ksv values and low detection limits validates the superior sensing performance shown by Zn-MOF-1 toward TNP and Cr3+. Thus, the fine-tuning of MOF for the detection of hazardous substances in wastewater is a challenging task and needs to address in future endeavors.

A water-soluble fluorescent probe (C-GGH) was used for the highly sensitive and selective detection of cyanide (CN−) in aqueous media based on the displacement strategy. Due to the presence of the recognition unit GGH (Gly-Gly-His), the probeC-GGH can coordinate with Cu2+and consequently display ON-OFF type fluorescence response. Furthermore, thein situformed nonfluorescentC-GGH-Cu2+complex can act as an effective OFF-ON type fluorescent probe for sensing CN−anion. Due to the strong binding affinity of CN−to Cu2+, CN−can extract Cu2+fromC-GGH-Cu2+complex, leading to the release ofC-GGH and the recovery of fluorescent emission of the system. The probeC-GGH-Cu2+allowed detection of CN−in aqueous solution with a LOD (limit of detection) of 0.017 μmol/L which is much lower than the maximum contaminant level (1.9 μmol/L) for CN−in drinking water set by the WHO (World Health Organization). The probe also displayed excellent specificity for CN−towards other anions, including F−, Cl−, Br−, I−, SCN−,PO43-,N3-,NO3-, AcO−,SO42-, andCO32-.

We propose a new method for the selective detection of the antibiotic metronidazole (MNZ) using CB[7]-JAT (cucurbit[7]uril = CB[7] and JAT = jatrorrhizine) as a fluorescent probe, which is based on the competitive reaction between MNZ and JAT for the occupancy of the CB[7] cavity. The proposed method gives a good calibration curve in the concentration range of 0.38–60 μM, and the limit of detection for MNZ is 65 ng mL−1 with those obtained by the standard curve method. Moreover, the proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of MNZ in liquid milk. Most importantly, due to the high binding affinity between CB[7] and MNZ, the proposed method shows great anti-interference capacity to accurately detect MNZ in the presence of other antibiotics.
