Luminescent chemodosimeters for bioimaging.

Exposure to even very low levels of lead, cadmium, and mercury ions is known to cause neurological, reproductive, cardiovascular, and developmental disorders, which are more serious problems for children particularly. Accordingly, great efforts have been devoted to the development of fluorescent and colorimetric sensors, which can selectively detect lead, cadmium, and mercury ions. In this critical review, the fluorescent and colorimetric sensors are classified according to their receptors into several categories, including small molecule based sensors, calixarene based chemosensors, BODIPY based chemosensors, polymer based chemosensors, DNA functionalized sensing systems, protein based sensing systems and nanoparticle based sensing systems (197 references).

Design strategies for water-soluble small molecular chromogenic and fluorogenic probes.

The hydrazone functional group has been extensively studied and used in the context of supramolecular chemistry. Its pervasiveness and versatility can be attributed to its ease of synthesis, modularity, and most importantly unique structural properties, which enable its integration in different applications. This review provides an overview of the utilization of hydrazones in three supramolecular chemistry related areas: molecular switches, metallo-assemblies and sensors. These topics were chosen because they highlight the diversity of hydrazones, and emphasize their uniqueness vis-a-vis the imine functional group. Discussion entails (i) chemical and light activated switching of hydrazones, and how this can be used in controlling the properties of self-assembled systems, (ii) the use of hydrazones in the formation of dynamic and stimuli responsive metallogrids, and (iii) the use of hydrazones in detecting metal cations (Zn2+, Cu2+, Hg2+, etc.), anions (F−, CN−, P2O74−, etc.) and neutral molecules (amines, water, Cys, etc.).

Hydrazone-based switches, metallo-assemblies and sensors

In this paper, we report new rhodamine hydrazone derivatives bearing thiol and carboxylic acid groups as selective fluorescent and colorimetric chemosensors for Hg2+. The ring-opening process of spirolactam enables the large fluorescent enhancement and colorimetric change upon the addition of Hg2+. The sample containing Hg2+ was mixed with one of the chemosensors in a microchannel where the sensor was examined using confocal laser scanning microscopy. A plot of the fluorescent intensities of both chemosensors versus the log concentration of Hg2+ exhibited a linear response (r2 = 0.95) in the range of 1 nM–1 μM, and the detection limits were 1 nM and 4.2 nM, respectively. Both chemosensors also enable the visualization of Hg2+ accumulated in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans previously exposed to nanomolar concentrations of Hg2+.
