This review summarizes the latest developments in chemosensors based on click generated triazoles for a range of metal cations, anions, and neutral analytes, highlighting the need for continuous research accumulation in this rapidly growing field to meet demand.
Chemosensors are synthetic chemical compounds that have the ability to selectively bind with analytes of interest and produce detectable changes in, for example, their color, fluorescence, or redox potential. In this review, the latest developments in the field of chemosensors based on click generated triazoles used for a range of metal cations, anions, and neutral analytes have been summarized. The detection of metal ions has become a major field of research due to their medicinal, biological, and environmental impact. Recently, the number of articles published in this area of research has significantly increased, which have reported more reliable and sophisticated triazole-based chemosensors for a variety of analytes of interest. From this perspective, a constant accumulation of research work is needed (or acceptable) so as to produce a collection of chromophores that will assist researchers to rapidly access the current developments in this research field. This feature article focuses on the development of chemosensors based on click generated triazoles reported between 2012 and 2020, including metal cations, anions, and other small organic molecules due to their advantages over other chemosensors, which include ease of recognition, simple instrumentation, high selectivity, and high sensitivity.
