Book Description
Over the past few decades, there has been significant interest in developing fluorescent probes, because they are useful tools for biological studies. As effective analytical techniques, fluorescent probes utilize distinct advantages offered by fluorescence detection in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and fast response time. When fluorescent probes interact selectively with target molecules, ions or biological specimens, they can generate large optical responses. Since most ions or molecules, such as Zn2+, Ca2+, or pyrophosphate ion (PPi), are non-fluorescent, chemosensors having analyte binding-triggered fluorescence are appealing in many fields, like analytical chemistry, clinical biochemistry, medicine, and environmental science.This dissertation is devoted to the design, synthesis, and characterization of novel fluorescent sensors for Zn2+ and its associated applications. Chapter II of this dissertation presents several novel terpyridine-based fluorescent sensors with different substituents affecting the electronic and steric nature of the terpyridine (tpy) fluorophore. Sensors are designed to establish the correlation between sensor structure and its photophysical properties. Low temperature fluorescence is used to evaluate the essential role of intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) in zinc binding-induced fluorescence changes. The tpy molecular fragment has a relatively large [pi]-conjugated system which enables the potential [pi-pi] interaction between two tpy platforms and affects the fluorescence of tpy ligands. Chapter III introduces a dimeric tpy ligand containing two tpy fragments connected via a meta-phenylene unit. The detailed spectroscopic study shows that this ligand displays an attractive fluorescence turn-on, in sharp contrast to mono(tpy) ligand that shows fluorescence quenching upon binding Zn2+. The result suggests the existence of delicate structural influences on fluorescence of tpy derivatives.Chapter IV is devoted to 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3-benzoxazole (HBO) and 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3-benzothiazole (HBT) derivatives featured with a structural potential of excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The study reveals additional information on the binding of HBO or HBT to metal cations, which aids the sensor design for Zn2+ and PPi detection. The molecular design aims to realize ESIPT process control upon complexation with an analyte. Chapter V is devoted to the synthesis of bis(HBO) derivatives which bind Zn2+ selectively and emit near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence as a consequence of metal ion binding-induced ESIPT turn-on. Preliminary cell stain experiment was conducted and indicated the potential biological applications.

Book Description
In this dissertation, we established a new approach assisted by computational chemistry to design fluorescent sensors. The approach is applicable to predict the behavior of a fluorophore-bridge-receptor sensor based on photoinduced electron transfer (PET). Our first designed rhodamine based pH sensor exhibits strong fluorescence under acidic conditions and very weak fluorescence under basic conditions, just as the computations predicted.
