In this study, we report the synthesis of five one-dimensional Zn(II)-based metallo-supramolecular polymers P0–4 through 1 : 1 complexation of Zn(SO3CF3)2 or Zn(ClO4)2 with ditopic ligands L0–4 which contain two pyridine-dioxazole (pybox) units connected by a rigid conjugated oligo(1,4-phenylene) linker. The new Zn(II)-based polymers displayed relatively high quantum yields in solution and the solid state and showed tunable luminescent colors from blue to yellow owing to the conjugation effect of the ligand and the intra-ligand charge transfer (ILCT) between the coordination site and the chromophore of the ligand. Moreover, the polymer solution could exhibit white light emission by simply regulating the metal/ligand ratio or mixing different polymers. The polymers have been further explored as fluorescent chemosensors (FCs) for detecting nitroaromatic explosives. Among others, P1 possessed the highest capability for detecting picric acid (PA).

A facile method was developed to prepare carbon dots(CDs) by pyrolysis and etching of coffee residue. The as-prepared CDs show uniform spherical nanoparticles with an average size of 2.3 nm and exhibit excitation-dependent fluorescence emissions. Moreover, CDs also exhibit strong fluorescence quenching to nitro compounds and metal ions in both water and ethanol solutions, which could act as a platform for dual detection of PA(picric acid) and Fe 3+ ions with low detection limits of 0.26 and 0.83 µmol/L, respectively. This work provides a novel method for preparation of environmental-friendly fluorescent CDs and shows their potential applications in photoluminescence sensors.

As a new family of fluorescent materials, all inorganic perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) CsPbX 3 (Cl, Br, I) have attracted rising attention due to their intrinsic optical superiorities and potential applications in various fields. This work takes advantage of the bright fluorescence of PQDs and the strong electrophilic properties of picric acid (PA) to construct an analytical method for sensitive and selective discrimination of PA against other nitroaromatic explosives, and the limit of detection is as low as 0.8 nM. The quenching mechanism was elucidated as the formation of electrostatic complex and the electron transfer between PA and PQDs. To facilitate visual and on-site detection, the CsPbBr 3 PQDs were printed onto microfiltration membrane by inkjet printing to fabricate test papers for rapid and on-site detections of explosive and pollutant PA, showing a great research prospect in the detection of ultratrace PA at different sites.

A facile, low-cost, and effective sensing strategy for detection of picric acid (PA) was developed based on copper nanoclusters (CuNCs). In this strategy, highly fluorescent CuNCs were prepared by using copper nitrate and ascorbic acid through an environmentally friendly process. Also, the PA-induced fluorescence quenching mechanism was investigated through ultraviolet-visible absorption spectra, fluorescence spectra, and fluorescence lifetimes, and might be ascribed to the molecular interactions and the strong inner filter effect between the CuNCs and PA. Under the optimal conditions, the fluorescence quenching degree of as-synthesized CuNCs was linearly dependent on the concentration of PA within a wide linear range of 2–40 μM, and the limit of detection was 0.98 μM. Finally, the proposed method was successfully applied to detect the levels of PA in real water samples.

Water-dispersed glutaraldehyde (GA) non-conjugated chitosan polymer fluorophores (GCPF) with quantum yield of 16% is synthesized by stirring chitosan and GA for 6 h at room temperature in the present work. It is a facile and mild method and fluorescent GCPF can be stabled for two months. Owing to the spectral overlap of fluorescent spectrum of GCPF and absorption spectrum of picric acid (PA), a novel sensitive fluorescent method using fluorescent GCPF for PA detection from 10 nM to 50 μM via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) strategy is established. The distance between donor of GCPF and acceptor of PA (R 0 value) is calculated to be 3.5 nm. FRET method using fluorescent GCPF possesses high sensitivity (LOD of 2.8 nM), and selectivity and fast response within 2 min. Moreover, fluorescent GCPF is also utilized in visual analysis of PA using cotton swabs. Fluorescence quenching effect can be observed by eyes irradiated with 365 nm ultraviolet light at cotton swabs and using GCPF solid on quartz glasses, which paves an effect and wide way for the application of fluorescent GCPF in our daily life.

Highly cross-linked and organic–inorganic hybrid poly(cyclotriphosphazene-co-curcumin) microspheres (PCPC-MS) were facilely prepared by a one-step precipitation copolymerization method, and served as a fluorescent chemical sensor for the detection of picric acid (PA) in solution phase. The photochemically inert cyclotriphosphazene moieties intentionally introduced into the structure of the sensor could play a role not only in connecting curcumin fluorophores to construct a highly cross-linked fluorescent architecture with excellent thermal stability and photobleaching stability, but also in effectively enriching PA from bulk solution to the surface of the sensor by the acid–base interaction between the acidic phenolic hydroxyl groups of PA molecules and the electron-rich nitrogen atoms of the cyclotriphosphazene units, which might facilitate the formation of a ground-state non-fluorescent complex of the microspheres and PA as well as the excited-state energy transfer from the microspheres to PA. Therefore, PCPC-MS exhibited a fluorescence quenching response towards PA with high sensitivity, efficiency, and selectivity over a number of other analytes such as 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene, 2,4-dinitrotoluene, 1,3-dinitrobenzene, 4-nitrotoluene, nitrobenzene, 4-benzoquinone, chlorobenzene, and nitromethane in methanol. In addition, PCPC-MS could also effectively detect PA in the presence of the other analytes, indicating their remarkable ability for resisting interferences and specific recognition of PA. This study provides new insights into the design and preparation of a polymer-based fluorescence chemical sensor for PA with low toxicity, a simple preparation process, and high selectivity.

A fluorescence method for the determination of picric acid (PA) using phosphorus-doped carbon dots (P-CDs), synthesized from β-cyclodextrin and sodium pyrophosphate, is described. The P-CDs are very uniform and monodisperse with a diameter of about 2.8 nm. Under an excitation of 350 nm, the P-CDs emit bright blue fluorescence with an emission peak at 440 nm. The as-synthesized P-CDs serve as a sensitive, selective, and label-free fluorescent probe for the detection of PA. Based on an inner filter effect between PA and P-CDs, a linear response is obtained for PA from 0.1 to 10 μM with a detection limit of 82 nM. Finally, this sensing system has been demonstrated to have practicability for PA detection in the environmental water samples.

Melamine (MA)-passivated Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized by a hydrothermal method . The MA-passivated QDs can form a charge-transfer complex with picric acid (PA) at 80 °C, thereby quenching the phosphorescence of the QDs. A sensitive method for detecting PA was established based on this principle of phosphorescence quenching . When the PA concentration ranged from 2.0 to 180 ng mL −1 , the concentration was linearly related to the quenching intensity of the QDs, with a detection limit of 1.4 ng mL −1 . When applied to detect PA in environmental water samples, the proposed method showed superior analytical performance compared with other PA analysis methods. Furthermore, we verified the static quenching mechanism by density functional theory . MA on the surface of QDs and PA formed a stable structure with a binding energy of 12.43 eV.

Picric acid (PA) is a lethal explosive substance that is easily soluble in water and harmful to the environment. Here, a supramolecular polymer material BTPY@Q[8] with aggregation induced emission (AIE) was prepared by supramolecular self-assembly of cucurbit uril (Q[8]) and 1,3,5-tris[4-(pyridin-4-yl) phenyl] benzene derivative (BTPY), which exhibited aggregation-induced fluorescence enhancement. To this supramolecular self-assembly, the addition of a number of nitrophenols was found to have no obvious effect on the fluorescence, however on addition of PA, the fluorescence intensity underwent a dramatic quench. For PA, BTPY@Q[8] had sensitive specificity and effective selectivity . Based on this, a quick and simple on-site visual PA fluorescence quantitative detection platform was developed using smart phones, and the platform was used to monitor temperature. Machine learning (ML) is a popular pattern recognition technology , which can accurately predict the results from data. Therefore, ML has much more potential for analyzing and improving sensing data than the widely used statistical pattern recognition method. In the field of analytical science, the sensing platform offers a reliable method for the quantitative detection of PA that can be applied to other analytes or micropollutant screening.

In this study, four hybrid ionic liquids (ILs) based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) were synthesized via a thiol-ene click reaction for the first time. These ILs based on POSS (ILs-POSS) exhibited not only excellent thermal stabilities but also low glass transition temperatures . 1 H, 13 C, and 29 Si NMR and Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR) spectroscopy were used to confirm the structures of the ILs-POSS. Furthermore, in selected solvents, the ILs-POSS were observed to have spherical vesicle structures as a result of their interesting self-assembly behaviors. In addition, these four ILs exhibited high sensitivity for the detection of a nitroaromatic compound, picric acid , detecting picric acid at a concentration of 1 ∗ 10 −9 M. These data demonstrated that these four novel ILs have great potential for the detection of explosives such as picric acid. In conclusion, this study describes new materials composed of POSS as fluorescent sensors exhibiting excellent efficiency and sensitivity in the detection of picric acid.

Water-soluble nonconjugated polymer nanoparticles (PNPs) with strong fluorescence emission were prepared from hyperbranched poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) and d-glucose via Schiff base reaction and self-assembly in aqueous phase. Preparation of the PEI–d-glucose (PEI-G) PNPs was facile (one-pot reaction) and environmentally friendly under mild conditions. Also, PEI-G PNPs showed a high fluorescence quantum yield in aqueous solution, and the fluorescence properties (such as concentration- and solvent-dependent fluorescence) and origin of intrinsic fluorescence were investigated and discussed. PEI-G PNPs were then used to develop a fluorescent probe for fast, selective, and sensitive detection of nitro-explosive picric acid (PA) in aqueous medium, because the fluorescence can be easily quenched by PA whereas other nitro-explosives and structurally similar compounds only caused negligible quenching. A wide linear range (0.05–70 μM) and a low detection limit (26 nM) were obtained. The fluorescence quenching mechanism was carefully explored, and it was due to a combined effect of electron transfer, resonance energy transfer, and inner filter effect between PA and PEI-G PNPs, which resulted in good selectivity and sensitivity for PA. Finally, the developed sensor was successfully applied to detection of PA in environmental water samples.

As a water pollutant with excellent solubility, 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (also known as picric acid, PA) poses a potential threat to the natural environment and human health, so it is crucial important to detect PA in water. In this study, a novel composite material (MIL-53(Al)@R6G) was successfully synthesized by encapsulating Rhodamine 6G into a metal-organic frame material, which was used for fluorescence detection of picric acid (PA) in water. The composite exhibits bright yellow fluorescence emission with a fluorescence quantum yield of 58.23 %. In the process of PA detection, the composite has excellent selectivity and anti-interference performance, and PA can significantly quench the fluorescence intensity of MIL-53(Al)@R6G. MIL-53(Al)@R6G has the advantages of fast detection time (20 s), wide linear range (1–100 µM) and low detection limit (4.8 nM). In addition, MIL-53(Al)@R6G has demonstrated its potential for the detection of PA in environmental water samples with satisfactory results.
