Pyrene is the fruit fly of photochemists. Its unique properties have inspired researchers from
many scientific areas, making pyrene the chromophore of choice in fundamental and …

The need for selective and sensitive sensors able to monitor in real-time and real-space the
concentration of analytes of biological, clinical, and environmental interest is nowadays …

Real-time and real-space analysis of heavy and transition metal ions employing fluorescent
sensor molecules has received much attention over the past few years. Since many of these …

A multifunctional fluorescent and colorimetric receptor 1 ((E)-N′-((8-hydroxy-1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7-
hexahydropyrido [3, 2, 1-ij] quinolin-9-yl) methylene) benzohydrazide) for the detection of …

Two new chemosensors that exhibit high affinity and high selectivity for Hg2+ in aqueous
environment which operate through two different channels, optic/redox and optic/fluorescent …

The Sonogashira coupling of γ‐CD‐encapsulated alkynylpyrenes with terphenyl‐type
stopper molecules gave a doubly alkynylpyrene‐threaded [4] rotaxane. The rotaxane …

This paper describes a new concept in the way information can be protected at the
molecular scale. By harnessing the principles of molecular Boolean logic, we have designed …

Hydroxamic acids, RCC (O) N (RN) OH (RC= alkyl/aryl; RN= alkyl/aryl or H), coordinate a
wide variety of transition metal ions predominantly as the monoanionic hydroxamato or …

A novel boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) based fluorescence turn-on sensor for detecting
Fe3+ in aqueous media is reported with 23-fold fluorescence enhancement. The sensor is …

Functional bio-MOF hollow spheres with controlled size in the 35–2000 μm range were
