In this review we will explore recent advances in the design and application of excited-state
intramolecular proton-transfer (ESIPT) based fluorescent probes. Fluorescence based …

Transition metal ions were inextricably connected with medicine, life sciences, and
environmental science. Some metal ions such as mercury ions, copper ions and iron irons in …

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and a major
contributor to dementia cases worldwide. AD is clinically characterized by learning, memory …

We report here, for the first time, the experimental observation on the excited-state
intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction of the thiol proton in room-temperature …

A probe based on 2-(2′-hydroxyphenyl) benzothiazole (HBT) has been synthesized and
used for the ratiometric detection of hydrazine. The probe is designed in such a way that the …

Metal elements represent some of the most fundamental chemical building blocks of life and
are required to sustain the growth, development, and sustenance of all living organisms and …

Resonance‐assisted hydrogen bonding (RAHB), a concept introduced by Gilli and co‐
workers in 1989, concerns a kind of intramolecular H‐bonding strengthened by a …

Copper is a required nutrient for life and particularly important to the brain and central
nervous system. Indeed, copper redox activity is essential to maintaining normal …

A non-planar tetraphenylethylene-functionalized salicylaldehyde Schiff-base fluorescent
probe (TPE-An-Py) with aggregation-induced enhanced emission (AIEE) characteristics was …

An excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT)-based highly sensitive ratiometric
fluorescence sensor, 1 H was developed for selective detection of aluminum (Al3+) in …
