Colorimetric chemosensors are widely employed for in-field analysis to detect transition metal ions in real-time with the naked eye. Colorimetric chemosensors have attracted considerable attention because they can conveniently provide quantitative and qualitative information at a low cost. However, the development of colorimetric chemosensors for multiple-ion sensing where metal cations coexist has been limited. For this reason, we developed a new type of transition metal ion sensing material by selectively replacing functional groups on (diphosphine)Pt(dmit) molecules. The terminal groups of the diphosphine ligand were successfully substituted by the cyclohexyl groups, increasing the electron density of the thione moiety. Due to the electron donation ability of the cyclohexyl terminal groups, the proposed chemosensing material was able to selectively detect the mixture of Hg2+, Cu2+, and Ag+ in the presence of many types of interfering cations. To gain insight into the binding mechanisms between the metal ions and the developed (dchpe)Pt(dmit) molecule, density functional theory calculations were also performed.


In this report we discussed the photo physical properties of two hexaanthryl substituted cryptands, L1 and L2 respectively. Further, photophysical studies of L1 and L2 with different transition metal ions as an input are carried out to probe these molecules as metal ion sensors in solution.

Nucleic acids that exhibit a high affinity toward noble and transition metal ions have attracted growing attention in the fields of metal ion sensing, toxic metal ion removal, and the construction of functional metal nanostructures. In this study, fluorescent nanoparticles (biodots) were synthesized from DNA, RNA, and RNA nucleotides (AMP, GMP, UMP, and CMP) using a hydrothermal (HT) method, in order to study their metal ion sensing characteristics. The fluorescent properties of biodots differ markedly between those prepared from purine and pyrimidine nucleobases. All biodots demonstrate a high sensitivity to the presence of mercury cations (Hg2+), while biodots prepared from DNA, RNA, and guanosine monophosphate (GMP) are also sensitive to Ag+ and Cu2+ ions, but to a lesser extent. The obtained results show that biodots inherit the metal ion recognition properties of nucleobases, while the nucleobase composition of biodot precursors affects metal ion sensitivity and selectivity. A linear response of biodot fluorescence to Hg2+ concentration in solution was observed for AMP and GMP biodots in the range 0–250 μM, which can be used for the analytic detection of mercury ion concentration. A facile paper strip test was also developed that allows visual detection of mercury ions in solutions.
