Development of fluorescent zinc chemosensors based on various fluorophores and their applications in zinc recognition
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract With the biological importance of zinc, the development of probes for zinc has been an active research area in recent years. With the aim of designing, synthesising and applying fluorescent sensors for Zn 2+ , this review provides an insight into Zn 2+ sensors based on different fluorophores over past decades and their applications in the detection of zinc. Several types of fluorophores have been reported, including quinoline, rhodamine, coumarin, fluorescein, 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide, Dipyrrometheneboron Difluoride, pyrene, porphyrin and others. It is of greatest importance that selects the suitable fluorophores for the design and synthesis of outstanding selective colorimetric or fluorimetric probes for detection of Zn 2+ in living cell. Based on the versatile means of modification in these fluorophores, we can envision that there still present ample opportunities for designing efficient and novel fluorescent probes for the detection of Zn 2+ in biological and environmental.
