چکیده

Two different classes of fluorescent dyes were prepared as a turn off/on sensor system for aldehydes. Amino derivatives of a boron dipyrromethene (BDP) fluorophore and a xanthene-derived fluorophore (rosamine) were prepared. Model compounds of their product with an aldehyde were prepared using salicylaldehyde. Both amino boron dipyrromethene and rosamine derivatives are almost non-fluorescent in polar and apolar solvent. However, imine formation with salicylaldehyde on each fluorophore increases the fluorescence quantum yield by almost a factor of 10 (from 0.05 to 0.4). These fluorophores are therefore suitable candidates for development of fluorescence-based sensors for aldehydes.

Accumulation of Polyunsaturated Aldehydes in the Gonads of the Copepod Acartia tonsa Revealed by Tailored Fluorescent Probes

Polyunsaturated aldehydes (PUAs) are released by several diatom species during predation. Besides other attributed activities, these oxylipins can interfere with the reproduction of copepods, important predators of diatoms. While intensive research has been carried out to document the effects of PUAs on copepod reproduction, little is known about the underlying mechanistic aspects of PUA action...

An amine/imine functionalized microporous MOF as a new fluorescent probe exhibiting selective sensing of Fe3+ and Al3+ over mixed metal ions

Nowadays metal-organic frameworks with multiple luminescent centers are very fascinating as multifunctional luminescent material because of their luminescence properties, which could be systematically tuned by deliberate use of organic ligands and metal ions. In this research, we explored a microporous mixed-ligand MOF for highly selective and sensitive detection of metal ions. A two-fold inter...

NBD-based colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on probes for hydrogen sulfide.

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important endogenous signalling molecule and also an important environmental target for detection. New reaction-based colorimetric and fluorescent turn-on probes based on selective thiolyling of NBD (7-nitro-1,2,3-benzoxadiazole) ether were explored for sensing of H2S in aqueous buffer. The syntheses of both probes are simple and quite straightforward. The probes ar...

Silver nanoclusters as fluorescent probes for selective and sensitive detection of copper ions.

Fluorescent DNA-Ag NCs are demonstrated as novel, label-free, and turn-on fluorescence probes for Cu(2+) ions sensors. We also used this novel fluorescent probe to determine Cu(2+) ions in Montana soil (SRM 2710) and pond water.

Selective turn-on fluorescent probes for imaging hydrogen sulfide in living cells.

Hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) is an important biological messenger but few biologically-compatible methods are available for its detection. Here we report two bright fluorescent probes that are selective for H(2)S over cysteine, glutathione and other reactive sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen species. Both probes are demonstrated to detect H(2)S in live cells.
