Cover Feature: A Tool, an App and a Field: Fluorescent PET Sensors, Blood Electrolyte Analysis and Molecular Logic as Products of Supramolecular Photoscience from Northern Ireland and Sri Lanka (ChemPlusChem 4/2023)
Abstract:The general tool of fluorescent PET (photoinduced electron transfer) sensors/switches -a molecular design principle with engineering features -is outlined, with the aid of frontier orbital energy diagrams. Fluorophores such as anthracene, 1,3diaryl-Δ 2 -pyrazolines and 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimides are employed within this system, alongside receptors such as amines, carboxylates, crown ethers and amino acids. This tool appealed to a multinational corporation for building a medical analyzer for electrolytes such a… Show more
