A fluorescent chemosensor derived from sugar-thiacrown-ether appended calix[4]arene coupled with pyrene units was synthesized. Upon addition of Fe2+or Fe3+the fluorescence intensities are quenched indicating high selectivity for these metal ions.

Herein, a novel on-off-on fluorescent chemosensor for copper (II) ion (Cu2+), iron (III) ion (Fe3+) and cysteine is developed simply by the nano-precipitation method. The prepared organic dots with AIEgens (AIE dots) are advantageous over other metal ions in detecting Cu2+, Fe3+ with high selectivity and sensitivity by forming agglomerations (on-off). The agglomerations formed by AIE dots and Cu2+ redistributed and the fluorescence was obviously recovered in the presence of cysteine (off-on). This sensor has a wide linear range for Cu2+, Fe3+ and cysteine. The fluorescent detection limits of AIE dots are calculated to be 107 nM for Cu2+, 120 nM for Fe3+ and 78 nM for cysteine, respectively. These results indicate that the AIE dots can be used as a potential probe for Cu2+, Fe3+ and cysteine detection.

A novel ruthenium(II) polypyridyl complex bearing 1,8-naphthyridine was successfully designed and synthesized. This complex was fully characterized by EI-HRMS, NMR, and elemental analyses. The recognition properties of the complex for various metal ions were investigated. The results suggested that the complex displayed high selectivity and sensitivity for Cu2+ and Fe3+ ions with good anti-interference in the CH3CN/H2O (1:1, v/v) solution. The fluorescent chemosensor showed obvious fluorescence quenching when the Cu2+ and Fe3+ ions were added. The detection limits of Cu2+ and Fe3+ were 39.9 nmol/L and 6.68 nmol/L, respectively. This study suggested that this Ru(II) polypyridyl complex can be used as a high selectivity and sensitivity fluorescent chemosensor for Cu2+ and Fe3+ ions.

Synopsis: A well-known tryptophan metabolite, xanthurenic acid, a natural non-fluorescent intermediate siderophore, showed a very selective turn-on response to K+ over other competing metal ions and the detection limit of this natural ionophore was found to be 53 nM at physiological pH.

The selective recognition of target ions in water is very important and the development of novel water-soluble chemosensor is still an intriguing challenge. Herein, a novel water-soluble fluorescent sensor based on aspartic acid (Asp) functionalized 1,8-naphthalimide derivative (Asp-NI) has been designed and synthesized. The sensor Asp-NI could dissolve in water and successively detect Fe3+ and H2PO4− in water solution with high selectivity and sensitivity. The detection limits are 4.97 × 10−7 mol/L for Fe3+ and 5.27 × 10−6 mol/L for H2PO4−. Other coexistent competitive metal ions (Hg2+, Ag+, Ca2+, Cu2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, Zn2+, Cr3+, and Mg2+) showed no interference in the Fe3+ detection process. The sensor Asp-NI could act as a Fe3+ and H2PO4− controlled “On–Off–On” fluorescent switch. More interestingly, the Fe3+ induced fluorescence quenching process could be totally reversed by the addition of H2PO4−, this “On–Off–On” switching process could be repeated several times with little fluorescence loss. Notably, the actual usage of sensor Asp-NI was further demonstrated by test kits.
