Triazole appended mono and 1,1′ di-substituted ferrocene-naphthalene conjugates: Highly selective and sensitive multi-responsive probes for Hg(II)

A Redox-Driven Fluorescence “Off–On” Molecular Switch Based on a 1,1′-Unsymmetrically Substituted Ferrocenyl Coumarin System: Mimicking Combinational Logic Operation

“…We avoid the issue by treating Fe 3+ as an oxidant rather than a binding agent. However, the heavy metal Hg 2+ causes slight quenching of weak fluorescence of 5 probably via spin–orbit coupling or charge transfer mechanism (vide infra).…”

Ion recognition by 1,2,3‐triazole moieties synthesized via “click chemistry”

“…The probes were utilized for paper‐made test kits for Hg 2+ recognition. [ 256 ] Cao and co‐workers developed a pyrenyl‐based 1,2,3‐triazole that showed more than 80% fluorescence quenching on Hg 2+ addition. [ 257 ] Mandal et al developed triferrocene‐based 1,2,3‐triazole chemosensors (Table 3c) that demonstrated visual color change from yellow to purple and bluish green for Hg 2+ and Cu 2+ , respectively.…”

Excitation wavelength-reliant light-induced energy and electron processes in pyrene and naphthalene functionalized dual-dye integrated polyaromatic azaborondipyrromethenes

“…Several lab-made artificial photosynthetic systems comprising naphthyl or pyrenyl moieties covalently tethered to photo- and electro-active entities such as ferrocene, 23–29 porphyrin, 14,30–41 corrole, 16,42–45 perylene, 46–50 borondipyrromethenes (BODIPYs), 51–60 azaBODIPYs, 8,17,61,62 and C 60 63–65 have been synthesized and effectively utilized as light harvesting molecules, 8,14,16,17,34,36,38,47,48,54–56,62,63,66–71 light capturers in dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) 30,35,37,40,41,72 and organic solar cells, 46,60,64,65 catalysts in H 2 and O 2 evolution, 44,45 photocatalysts, 32,73 molecular sensors, 23–26,52 sensitizers in photodynamic therapy and singlet oxygen generation, 31,33,59,61 DNA binders, 42 and biological imaging agents, 57 and also for photo-upconversion. 74…”

“…4 In addition to attractive photophysical properties, it bears high chemical stability and charge-carrier mobility; making it an active ingredient of organic light emitting diodes, 18 organic field effect transistors, 19 organic photovoltaics, 4 and sensors. [20][21][22] Several lab-made artificial photosynthetic systems comprising naphthyl or pyrenyl moieties covalently tethered to photoand electro-active entities such as ferrocene, [23][24][25][26][27][28][29] porphyrin, 14,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41] corrole, 16,[42][43][44][45] perylene, [46][47][48][49][50] borondipyrromethenes (BODIPYs), [51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60] azaBODIPYs, …”
