Abstract

Over the last two decades, the design and development of fluorescent chemosensors for the targeted detection of Heavy Transition-metal (HTM) ions, anions, and biological analytes, have drawn much interest. Since the introduction of click chemistry in 2001, triazole moieties have become an increasingly prominent theme in chemosensors. Triazoles generated via click reactions are crucial for sensing various ions and biological analytes. Recently, the number of studies in the field of pyrene appendant triazole moieties has risen dramatically, with more sophisticated and reliable triazole-containing chemosensors for various analytes of interest described. This tutorial review provides a general overview of pyrene appendant-triazole-based chemosensors that can detect a variety of metal cations, anions, and neutral analytes by using modular click-derived triazoles.

Keywords: Click chemistry, triazole, pyrene, carbohydrate, calix[4]arenes, chemosensors.
