The 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide-Tröger's base fluorophore, TBNap-TPy, adorned with phenyl-terpyridine moiety was synthesised and assessed for its aggregation-induced emission (AIE) behaviour. TBNap-TPy further employed as a fluorescent sensor the discriminative sensing of π-electron-deficient nitroaromatic; displaying largest fluorescence quenching high selectivity picric acid, harmful environmental pollutant widely used in dye industries.
The 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger's base functionalized triazine covalent organic polymer TB-TZ-COP was synthesised and employed as a "turn-on" fluorescent colorimetric sensor for the discriminative sensing of volatile compounds; displaying largest enhancement high sensitivity 1,4-dioxane, harmful environmental pollutant classified Group 2B carcinogen.
Abstract The tripodal 1,3,5‐benzene tricarboxamide (BTA) ligand functionalized with terpyridine ( 1 ) is used to self‐assemble Ln(III) ions (Ln = La, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Yb, and Lu) in solution within soft material (supramolecular metallogels). Stability constants for 1:1 3:2 M:L assemblies formed MeOH are determined using nonlinear regression analysis of UV–vis absorption emission titrations revealing a parabolic relationship between the binding values ionic radii ions. formation gels MeOH‐H 2...
The synthesis and study of the lanthanide luminescent 2,3-bis(1,2,3- triazol-4-yl)picolinamide (btp) based hydrogels F1 F2 is described where Tb( iii ) or Eu( are also used to crosslink btp units within polymers.
We report the synthesis of glycosylated naphthalimide compounds and their application as fluorescent probes for Concanavalin A (Con A) lectin.
Morpholine-substituted 1,8-naphthalimide fluorophores exhibit solvent and pH-dependent emission characteristics based on aggregation, form robust chemically reversible metallogels.
An investigation into the self-assembly of two 4-amino- and a 4-bromo-1,8-naphthalimide (Nap) based structures (1-3) possessing an appended glycan unit, from protic polar media, is presented. The results demonstrate formation complex hierarchical luminescent aggregates, wherein morphologies, sizes spherical were highly dependent on both media Nap structure. Upon cleaving native glycosidic bond, using enzyme, structure/morphology 3 in buffered solution was significantly transformed.
A new hyper-crosslinked 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide Tröger's base containing pyridinium covalent organic polymer, TBNap-COP, was synthesised and employed as a 'turn-off' fluorescent chemosensor for nitroaromatic explosives. TBNap-COP in quantitative yield using one-step nucleophilic substitution reaction between dipyridyl scaffold (TBNap, bis-[N-(2-(pyridine-4-yl)ethyl)]-9,18-methano-1,8-naphthalimide-[b,f][1,5]diazocine) 1,3,5-tris(bromomethyl)benzene by heating DMF 3 days. The formation...
