Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescent chemosensors: The past, present and future

TL;DR: The history of the development in the research of fluorescent sensors, often referred to as chemosensors, and some pioneering and representative works from about 40 groups in the world that have made substantial contributions to this field are highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anion recognition and sensing in organic and aqueous media using luminescent and colorimetric sensors

TL;DR: In this article, a review article focuses primarily on the work carried in our laboratories over the last few years using luminescent and colorimetric sensors, where the anion recognition occurs through hydrogen bonding in organic or aqueous solvents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Colorimetric and fluorescent anion sensors: an overview of recent developments in the use of 1,8-naphthalimide-based chemosensors

TL;DR: 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recent advances in the development of 1,8-naphthalimide based DNA targeting binders, anticancer and fluorescent cellular imaging agents

TL;DR: The rich photophysical properties of the naphthalimides make them prime candidates as probes as the changes in spectroscopic properties such as absorption, dichroism, and fluorescence can all be used to monitor their binding to biomolecules.
