The selective detection of salicylaldehyde skeleton is of great significance in phytochemistry and biological research but rarely reported. In this research, a simple and highly selective "turn-on" fluorescence sensor (CDB-Am) for salicylaldehyde skeleton was developed based on switch of photoinduced electron transfer (PET) and aggregation-induced emission (AIE). CDB-Am bearing amino-cyanodistyrene structure responded to salicylaldehyde in the range of 3.1 to 40 μM with a detection limit of 0.94 μM. The sensing process of formation of Schiff-base adduct CDB-SA was confirmed by H NMR, MS, and FT-IR spectra, revealing that a recovered AIE property accounted for the turn-on fluorescence response of CDB-Am and the intramolecular hydrogen bonding played a crucial role in the disruption of PET process. This sensing ability was successfully applied for both fluorescence qualitative test of salicylaldehyde skeleton on TLC analysis and quantitative detection of salicylaldehyde skeleton with good accuracy in the root bark of Periploca sepium, suggesting the extensive applications in phytochemistry and traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Furthermore, CDB-Am exhibited the first excellent fluorescence imaging ability in detecting salicylaldehyde skeleton in a living system. This work supplied a new strategy of preparing a novel "turn-on" fluorescence probe for detecting salicylaldehyde skeleton in complex environments and living bodies.

The rapid and selective identification of microorganisms is of great significance for clinical therapy applications. To develop high performance probes for microbe determination, we systemically constructed series aggregation-induced emission (AIE) luminogens by modulating the structural planarity, the basicity of functional group, the length of linker moiety and the hydrophobicity based on our previous work. The detail structure-property relationship study based on experimental and theoretical observation revealed that: i) the planar skeleton is essential for probe insertion towards the cell wall via van n der Waals' force.

In this study, we have reported a novel 4-bromo-salicylaldehyde-diphenyl-azine (B-1), a new member of salicylaldehyde-diphenyl-azine (SDPA) family known for its excellent sensing properties. In contrast to the previously reported AIEgens, we found that the bromo-substitution at the 4th position of the salicylaldehyde moiety blue-shifted the emission by 10 and 15 nm as compared to the unsubstituted (Tong et.al 2017) and Bromo at the 5th position (Jain et.

A novel uranyl organic framework (U-hdpcp) based on flexible cyclic triphosphazene polycarboxylate ligands was prepared, which possesses the ability to sense aromatic aldehyde solutions (benzaldehyde, salicylaldehyde and 2-bromobenzaldehyde) and nitro compounds (2,4,6-trinitrophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol and -nitrophenol). A fluorescent thin film based on U-hdpcp@PVA with the ability to sense aldehyde vapors was prepared a spin coating method. The work expands the library of UOF materials based on large-sized carboxylic acid ligands and demonstrates promising applications in the field of fluorescent sensors.

The development of new and effective antimicrobial agents with novel chemical skeletons and working mechanisms is highly desirable due to the increased number of resistant microbes. Different new compounds based upon a 3D-spiro chromanone scaffold such as Mannich bases 2 and 3 in addition to azo dye 4 were synthesized. Besides, the condensation reactions of the hydrazide-spiro chromanone 8 with different ketonic reagents led to the synthesis of pyrazoles (9 & 10) and anils (11 & 13).

Throughout this study, we present the victorious synthesis of a novel class of 2(1H)-pyridone molecules, bearing a 4-hydroxyphenyl moiety through a one-pot reaction of 2-cyano-N-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide with cyanoacetamide, acetylacetone or ethyl acetoacetate, and their corresponding aldehydes. In addition, the chromene moiety was introduced into the pyridine skeleton through the cyclization of the cyanoacetamide 2 with salicylaldehyde, followed by treatment with malononitrile, ethyl cyanoacetate, and cyanoacetamide, in order to improve their biological behaviour. Due to their anti-inflammatory, ulcerogenic, and antipyretic characters, the target molecules have undergone in-vitro and in-vivo examination, that display promising results.
