A new Schiff-base colorimetric chemosensor 1 was developed for the detection of Cu, Co and S. Sensor 1 could simply monitor Cu and Co by a color change from colorless to yellow. The binding modes of 1 to Cu and Co were determined to be a 2 : 1 complexation stoichiometry through Job's plot and ESI-mass spectrometry analysis. The detection limits (0.02 μM and 0.63 μM) for Cu and Co were lower than the recommended values (31.5 μM and 1.7 μM) by the World Health Organization (WHO) for Cu and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for Co, respectively. Importantly, 1 could detect and quantify Cu in real water samples. In addition, the Cu-2·1 complex could be used as a highly selective colorimetric sensor for S in the presence of other anions without any interference. Moreover, the sensing mechanisms of Cu and Co by 1 were explained by theoretical calculations.

A simple and highly effective Schiff-base fluorescent chemosensor (S1) was synthesized and characterized by HNMR and fluorescence spectroscopy. The synthesized chemosensor was applied for the selective and sensitive detection of Hg ions. The chemosensor exhibited a strong 'turn-on' fluorescence response in a CHOH/HO (1:9, v/v) solution due to complex formation (S1-Hg) which block photo induce electron transfer (PET).

A simple, tailor-made, novel chemosensor based on 1,10-phenanthroline Schiff base incorporating N, N-Diethylamino salicylaldehyde (1) was designed and synthesized. The sensing ability of chemosensor 1 was tested via colorimetric, UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. Chemosensor 1 could effectively and specifically detect diethylchlorophosphate (DCP) in acetonitrile displaying naked eye colour change from pale yellow to dark yellow while fluorogenic colour changes from blue to pink fluorescence (365 nm UV lamp irradiation).

Detections towards multiple analytes by one sensor remain a significant challenges. Herein, a high-sensitivity chemo-sensor ICZ-o-XFJ is designed and synthesized for the simultaneous detection of F and Al. Suffering from the ESIPT process, this sensor is colorless and almost non-emissive in solutions.

A curcumin-derived chemosensor 4,4'-((1E,3Z,5Z,6E)-3,5-bis((2hydroxyphenyl)imino) hepta-1,6-diene-1,7-diyl)bis(2-methoxyphenol) (HIBMP) was developed from curcumin and o-aminophenol using Schiff base condensation method. HIBMP selectively recognizes Cu (II) ion (Cu (II)) relative to other tested metal ions. Selective binding of Cu (II) ion turns off the fluorescent property of HIBMP and shows no interference with other metal ions.

Four salicylidene-based dual-responsive chemosensors 1,5-bis(5-bromosalicylaldehyde)carbohydrazone (R1), 1,5-bis(5-bromosalicylaldehyde)thiocarbohydrazone (R2), 1,5-bis(3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde)carbohydrazone (R3) and 1,5-bis(3-ethoxysalicylaldehyde)thiocarbohydrazone (R4) were synthesized and characterized. The molecular structures of R1 and R3 were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique, which crystallized in the orthorhombic and monoclinic 2/ space groups, respectively. The chemosensor molecules were investigated for their recognition properties against the selected cations (K, Ca, Mn, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Fe and Al) and anions (F, Cl, Br, I, HSO, HPO, ClO, N and NO) by colorimetry, absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, H NMR spectroscopy and theoretical studies.
