There is great need for stand-alone luminescence-based chemosensors that exemplify
selectivity, sensitivity, and applicability and that overcome the challenges that arise from …

Calixarenes (CAs), representing the third generation of supramolecular hosts and one of the
most widely studied macrocyclic scaffolds, offer (almost) unlimited structure and application …

Abstract Here, sister calix [4] arene derivatives containing two NBD (7-nitro-benzofurazan)
units in 1, 3-(distal) derivatives (sensors 4&8) were prepared and characterized by 1 H, 13 C …

Herein, two generic classes, pillar [n] arene and Bodipy, were combined for the selective
detection of basic amino acids. For this aim, a Pillar [5] arene and Bodipy derivatives were …

A new sensor for Hg 2+ and cysteine detection has been synthesized and tested. The
sensor based on cinamaldehyde and pyrimidine absorbs visible light when exposed to Hg …

Because they hold together molecules by means of non-covalent interactions-relatively
weak and thus, potentially reversible–the anionic calixarenes have become an interesting …

The history, properties, and characteristics of para-sulfonato-calixarenes are described. On
the one hand, the inherent antibacterial and antifungal properties against microorganisms …

A new fluorescence sensor, namely, TDPC, which is composed of a pyrene group
connected to calix [4] arene as the fluorogenic unit, has been synthesized, characterized …

The unique conformational properties, functionality, low toxicity, and low cost make
calixarene-based compounds a valuable candidate against cancer. The aim of the present …

In this study, we present the synthesis of water soluble calixarene appended with rhodamine
(CR) at lower rim as fluorescent moiety. The synthesized water soluble fluorescent derivative …
