Abstract:This critical review focuses on the development of anion sensors, being either fluorescent and/or colorimetric, based on the use of the 1,8-naphthalimide structure; a highly versatile building unit that absorbs and emits at long wavelengths. The review commences with a short description of the most commonly used design principles employed in chemosensors, followed by a discussion on the photophysical properties of the 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide structure which has been most commonly employed in both cation and … Show more
“…[43] The isomer observed in 5 and 6 is in agreement with the monoclinic phase observed for the Y III and Dy III analogues. The C=C central bond length of the TTF core of 1.332(14) 脜 [1.312 (19) 脜] again attests to the neutrality of L 1 .…”

“…[5][6][7] The origin of this keen interest comes from their particular magnetic characteristics (high magnetic moments and strong magnetic anisotropy) and specific luminescence. Both SMMs and luminescent materials have a plethora of potential applications, for example, high-density data storage, spintronics and quantum computing, [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), [16] time-resolved fluoro-immunoassays, [17] biosensors [18,19] and time-resolved imaging. [20] In the molecular-magnetism field, the luminescence was recently exploited to provide a high level of comprehension of the magnetic properties.…”

“…Coordination chemistry was attempted using Cu(II) salts in the hope that the 蟺-based interactions would be the dominant intermolecular interaction and allow for functional metal-organic networks to be constructed using supramolecular self-assembly. Cu(NO 3 4 ] was found to be strongly anti-ferromagnetic. The use of naphthalimide based ligands and triazole coordination sites has resulted in metal-organic supramolecular networks where interesting dimer complexes were assembled into extended networks through non-covalent 蟺路路路蟺 and anion路路路蟺 interactions.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] In this, their 蟺-deficient character has been exploited giving rise to systems where the extension of structure arises through 蟺-based (蟺路路路蟺 stacking, anion路路路蟺 interactions and C=O路路路蟺 interactions) contacts and results in frameworks constructed from less traditional weak non-covalent supramolecular interactions rather than the more typical charge assisted coordination bonds observed in coordination polymers and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Reger and coworkers have been instrumental in this field and have developed many 1,8-naphthalimide transition metal conjugates with a range of coordinating groups [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] whose structures were extended in the solid state by means of the naphthalimide groups acting as secondary building units through 蟺-based interactions.…”
Naphthalimide based ligands have received significant attention for their ability to act as secondary building units (SBUs) for metal-containing network structures. The potentially bridging 1,2,4-triazole containing N- (1,2,4-triazolyl
Anion binding selectivity can often be controlled by judicious arrangement of recognition moieties around an anion of interest. Indeed, nature takes advantage of large peptides/proteins to provide highly efficient and selective anion receptors using a small number of amino acid building blocks placed in a precise arrangement. Cyclic peptides are ideal synthetic scaffolds to position binding residues in a similarly preorganised manner as their synthetic versatility and rigidified structure allows precise control over their size and shape. This review summarises the recent use of such cyclic peptide scaffolds as receptors for various anionic species.
