Chromogenic and fluorogenic chemosensors and reagents for anions. A comprehensive review of the year 2009

Rhodamine derivative functionalized chitosan as efficient sensor and adsorbent for mercury(II) detection and removal

“…In comparison with the complex operation and expensive cost of traditional detection methods, the fluorescence detection methods are not only simple but highly sensitive and selective, and allow in situ real-time measurements [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. To date, progress in the area of fluorescent chemosensors has contributed significantly to the development of a variety of Hg 2+ sensors based on small molecules [23,24], nanoparticles [25][26][27], and nucleotides [28,29].…”

A novel strategy for chromogenic chemosensors highly selective toward cyanide based on its reaction with 4-(2,4-dinitrobenzylideneamino)benzenes or 2,4-dinitrostilbenes

“…Many chromogenic chemosensors have been developed for the selective visual and quantitative detection of anions [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. In this regard, CN À represents an important target analyte to be detected due to its many industrial applications and considering the risk that it poses to human health, being lethal in very small amounts because it inhibits the mitochondrial electron transport chain due to its strong binding to the active site of cytochrome-oxidase [18][19][20].…”

Chemosensing Ensembles of 2-(2-Thiazolylazo)-p-cresol with Metal Ions in Colorimetric Detection of Anions

“…[1][2][3][4] In this regard, scientists across the globe are trying to explore different chemosensors capable of detecting various anions. 5,6 Although organic molecule-based sensors have been widely exploited, they suffer from very common drawbacks in general, such as time-consuming synthesis and cross-sensitivity to interferents.…”
