Azaacenes as active elements for sensing and bio applications

摘要: Since azaacenes have electron-deficient backbones and lone-pair electrons on nitrogen centers, they can efficiently detect the target molecules or ions through supramolecular interactions such as anion–π attractions coordinate bonding. These special features make very designable for various sensors, which be further used in bio field. In this review, we will summarize recent progress applications of sensing fields. We believe that a rapid development research sensors based witnessed coming years due to their tuneable structures, optical properties binding abilities.
