Summary: In this study, a cyanide chromogenic probe (L) was utilized for the specific detection of Hg2+ ion using colorimetric technique. The probe exhibited selective response to Hg2+ ion with clear color changes from yellow to orange, and other metal ions had no impact on the colorimetric changes. The binding mechanism between the probe and Hg2+ ion was confirmed to be the formation of a charge transfer complex, and the probe could be reversed with EDTA.

Summary: We designed and synthesized a new near-infrared ratiometric fluorescent probe for monitoring mercury ions based on quinoline-fused rhodamine dye. The probe shows a ratiometric fluorescent change after treatment with mercury ions, with increased emission in the near-infrared region and significantly reduced emission in the visible region. The probe has remarkable detection selectivity, fast response, and high detection sensitivity, and can be applied as a detection tool for mercury ions with dual-channel ratiometric fluorescence imaging in living cells.

Summary: In this study, a novel colorimetric and fluorescent dual-functional peptide-based probe FAHF was designed and prepared using solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) technology. FAHF showed high selectivity and rapid response towards Cu2+ and Hg2+ in 100% aqueous media, with recognizable color change observed by naked eye. The low concentrations of Cu2+ and Hg2+ could be accurately detected, with LODs of 61.02 nM and 40.27 nM, respectively. The FAHF-Cu2+ ensemble and FAHF-Hg2+ ensemble formed in situ were used as cascade probes for detecting S2- based on colorimetric and fluorescence off-on response, with LODs of 45.12 nM and 102.38 nM, respectively. Moreover, FAHF was successfully applied for fluorescence imaging of Cu2+, Hg2+, and S2- in living cells, and made into test strips for visual detection and rapid analysis under 365 nm UV lamp.

Summary: Fluorometric/colorimetric chemosensors have become increasingly important in the precise detection of metal ions due to their specificity, economy, rapid reaction, ease of use, nakedeye screening, and low detection limit. This study focuses on pyrene fluorophore-derived fluorescent chemosensors, particularly for detecting D-transition metal ions and their applications in environmental and biological samples. Various mechanisms, such as energy transfer, ligand to metal charge transfer, and aggregation-induced emission, have been utilized in these chemosensors. In terms of applications, pyrene-based fluorescent derivatives have been successfully used in the examination of live cells, water, and food samples in different domains. Recent studies have specifically covered the synthesis and design of adaptable pyrene fluorophore-based derivatives for specific detection of D-transition metal ions, binding processes, detection limits, and diverse applications from 2018 to 2022.
