Considerable amount of research has been carried out on designing and improving metal-
recognition methodologies in environmental and biological media. The development of …

A simple Schiff base (BMSA) prepared from salicylaldehyde and 2-(1H-benzo [d] imidazol-2-
yl) aniline was evaluated as an efficient fluorescent chemosensor for the selective …

This manuscript presents a very simple receptor based on the combination of pyrene and
malonohydrazide groups for the sensitive and selective detection of Zn 2+. The sensor …

Many benzimidazole compounds can emit characteristic fluorescence in various organic
solvents and aqueous solutions, and their fluorescence properties can be influenced by …

Amide-benzothiazole based receptors act as highly selective chemosensors for Cu (II) and
Zn (II) ions both in solution and in the solid state. Binding and crystallographic studies have …

A pyridoxal-based fluorescein derivative was synthesized by reacting fluorescein hydrazide
and pyridoxal hydrochloride in ethanol and characterized by NMR, ESI-MS and X-ray. The …

Two benzimidazole/benzothiazole based azomethines,(E)-2-(1H-benzo [d] imidazol-2-yl)-4-
(4-(diethylamino)-2-hydroxybenzylideneamino) phenol (HBZA) and (E)–2-(benzo [d] thiazol …

Optical chemosensors caused a revolution in the field of sensing due to their high specificity,
sensitivity, and fast detection features. Imidazole derivatives have offered promising features …

A sol–gel process is developed for the synthesis of ZnO crystals at room temperature using
organic receptors (bearing imine linkages) as the capping agents to control the size and …

Chemosensor 1 was synthesized by the reaction of octopamine with 2, 3-
dihydroxybenzaldehyde. Sensor 1 determined iron with an obvious color change from pale …
