Fluoride is often added to drinking water and toothpaste because of its beneficial effects in
dental health. It is also administered in the treatment of osteoporosis. 1 While the beneficial …

This review describes recent advances in the miniaturization of ion selective optodes into
microscale and nanoscale sensors. The topics include a comparison between film-based …

With the recognition of aqueous fluoride and cyanide ions as an objective, we have
investigated the anion binding properties of two isomeric ammonium boranes, namely [p …

In search of a molecular receptor that could bind fluoride ions in water below the maximum
contaminant level of 4 ppm set by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), we have …

The 9-anthryltriphenylstibonium cation,[1]+, has been synthesized and used as a sensor for
the toxic fluoride anion in water. This stibonium cation complexes fluoride ions to afford the …

Prompted by the importance of fluoride in fields such as drinking water analysis and 18F-
positron emission tomography, we have synthesized and investigated three Lewis acidic …

Bisthiocarbonohydrazones are found to be a class of sensitive, selective, ratiometric, and
colorimetric chemosensors for anions such as fluoride (F−) or acetate (Ac−). The …

We synthesized benzimidazole substituted boron-dipyrromethene 1 (BODIPY 1) by treating
3, 5-diformyl BODIPY 2 with o-phenylenediamine under mild acid catalyzed conditions and …

Exploring efficient and robust electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance of liposoluble
porphyrins in aqueous phase for analytical purposes especially for important biological …

5, 8-Diaryl-2, 3-dipyrrolylquinoxaline materials display anion-induced changes in color and
fluorescence quenching, thus acting as potential sensors for inorganic anions with affinity for …
