Abstract

A new-fangled C3-symmetric triaminoguanidine-pyrrole conjugate has been constructed and utilized for sensing applications. The probe selectively detects zinc ions (Zn2+) by colorimetric as well as turn-on fluorescent manner. Further, the in-situ formed zinc ensemble displays turn-off fluorescence response towards the pyrophosphate anion (PPi) via displacement approach. Emissive off-on-off sensing characteristics of the probe has been successfully exploited to construct the INHIBIT logic gate, coding/decoding of messages and in vivo imaging of Zn2+/PPi in zebrafish larvae. Further, PPi detection characteristics of zinc ensembles were established for the sensing of PPi discharged from DNA synthesis and other biological reactions.
