A functional amide-type pincer ligand was designed and synthesized, which could effectively capture Tb ions to form a phosphorescence complex-based chemosensor Tb-1. The chemosensor could further coordinate with Pb ions and display a turn-on phosphorescence response. This sensing process was analyzed in detail by steady-state luminescence spectroscopy, time-resolved luminescence spectroscopy, electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering, which suggest that the formation of Pb-induced hydroxide nanoclusters can adjust the optical signal of the external luminescence compound by embedment and fixation of Tb complexes. Furthermore, Tb-1 could effectively eliminate the signal interference from the short-lived fluorescence and improve the signal-to-noise ratio to increase the accuracy of the detection for Pb. An understanding of the recognition mechanism of the Tb complex-based chemosensor and the application of the characteristic spectra of lanthanide ions might be able to provide more opportunities to develop highly selective optical chemosensors.

A novel type of chemosensor based on tin(IV) complexes incorporating hydroxyquinoline derivatives has been designed and investigated for selectively detecting fluoride ions. Sn(meq)Cl (meq = 2-methyl-8-quinolinol) (complex 1) exhibits a significant enhancement in luminescence upon the introduction of fluoride ions. This enhancement greatly surpasses that observed with SnqCl and Sn(dmqo)Cl (q = 8-hydroxyquinnoline; dmqo = 5,7-dimethyl-8-quinolinol).

This paper scrutinises the development of low-cost hypersensitive fluorescent probes manipulated chemically with Schiff base complexes and their prospective applicability for the detection of nitro explosives in light of the rapidly expanding demand for anti-trafficking measures. In this study, a new Zn(II) metal complex has been synthesized in one pot using the Schiff base ligand L= 2-methoxy-5-methyl-N-(2-pyridin-2-ylmethylene) aniline. The complex was also thoroughly characterised using various spectroscopic tools and subjected to single crystal XRD analysis.

The vitamins of riboflavin and folate are necessary nutrients for maintaining the proper functioning of human body. Riboflavin and folate deficiency will cause nerve damage, leading to peripheral neuritis, depression, tongue inflammation and other diseases. The sensitive detection of riboflavin and folate keeps its significance for patients and food quality control.

The tetranuclear Cu /Ca /Ca2 /Cu complex based on Malten ligand has been investigated as a platform for anion binding. Simple organic carboxylates and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have been tested, revealing the ability of the platform to bind them. The receiving platform hosts at least two guests in solution although a third anion can be bound, as suggested by X-ray diffraction analysis.

This work describes the syntheses, characterization, crystal structures, absorption and emission spectra and DFT calculations of three dizinc(II) compounds of the composition [ZnII2L(μ-N)(N)] (1) [ZnL'(2,4-dinitrophenolate)] (2) and [ZnL'(picrate)] (3), respectively, (where HL is the 1 : 2 condensation product of 4-ethyl-2,6-diformylphenol and -methylethylenediamine and H2L' (a diamino-diimino-diphenol system) is a new type of macrocyclic ligand). Compound 1 is water soluble and its aqueous solution exhibits intense fluorescence properties. 2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) and picric acid (PA) selectively quench the fluorescence intensity of 1 to a significant extent, revealing that 1 is a fluorescence sensor of DNP and PA.
