Zinc sensors based on 2,3-dipicolylamine (DPA) and quinoline have been synthesized. They fluoresced in the presence of Zn(2+) and remained fluorescent when other metal ions were present. Fluorescence enhancement of the sensors was not seen for most other metal ions.

Two new rhodamine based probes 1 and 2 for the detection of Fe(3+) were synthesized and their selectivity towards Fe(3+) ions in the presence of other competitive metal ions tested. The probe 1 formed a coloured complex with Fe(3+) as
A practical Brønsted acid promoted benzylic C-H functionalization of 2-methylazaarenes and nucleophilic addition to aldehydes was developed in good to excellent yields. A six-membered hydrogen-bonding transition state is proposed to be crucial for the reaction. Ready availability of the two

A series of carboxamidoquinoline-based fluorescent sensors (the AQZ family) were synthesized and characterized. The AQZ family members were highly soluble in water and showed good selectivity for Zn(2+)via enhanced fluorescence in aqueous buffer solution. Fluorescence signals could be tuned from
The unusual role of CO as a signaling molecule in several physiological pathways has spurred research in the area of synthesizing new CO-releasing molecules (CORMs) as exogenous CO donors. Auxiliary control on CO delivery can be achieved if CO can
