We have designed and synthesized a novel, water-soluble naphthalimide-histidine receptor (1) with excellent fluorescent properties. Functioning of the synthesized receptor was performed through developing their DNA-receptor hybrid assembly (DRHA), which has shown significant changes in the emission profile upon interactions with dipicolinic acid (DPA), a biomarker for Bacillus anthracis spores. DRHA showed fluorescence enhancement upon binding with DPA with the characteristic of internal charge transfer. It is notable that this assembly exhibited a significant limit of detection (12 nM) toward DPA. The mechanism of sensing was fully defined using ethidium bromide (EtBr) interaction studies as well as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic analysis, which describes the binding mode of DRHA with DPA. This assembly selectively interacts with DPA over other anions, common cellular cations, and aromatic acids in aqueous media.

Okadaic acid (OA) is one of the known marine biotoxins produced by various dinoflagellates and exists in seafood such as shellfish. The consumption of contaminated shellfish with OA leads to diarrheic shellfish poisoning (DSP), which results in the inhibition of protein phosphatase enzymes in humans. This poisoning can cause immunotoxicity and tumor promotion due to the accumulation of okadaic acid in more than the allowed limit in bivalve molluscs. The reported methods for the detection of okadaic acid include mouse bioassays, immunoassays, chromatography coupled with spectroscopic techniques, electrochemical sensors and immunosensors. We have developed a naphthalimide-gold-based nanocomposite for the detection of okadaic acid. Individually, the organic nanoparticles (ONPs) of synthesized naphthalimide-based receptors and gold-coated ONPs are less sensitive for detection. However, fabrication of the composite of Au?ONPs and ONPs enhance the sensing properties and selectivity. The composite shows a ratiometric response in the UV-Vis absorption spectrum and quenching in the fluorescence profile with a detection limit of 20 nM for OA in aqueous medium. In cyclic voltammetry, a shift was observed in the cathodic peak (-0.532 V to -0.618 V) as well as in the anodic peak (-0.815 V to -0.847 V) with the addition of okadaic acid. To study the quick binding of the composite with OA, a time response experiment was performed. Also, the developed sensor retains its sensing ability in the pH range of 5-9 and in high salt conditions. Our developed composite can be used for the detection of OA in real applications.
Synthesis of Triphenylethylene-Naphthalimide Conjugates as topoisomerase-IIα inhibitor and HSA binder

A series of triphenylethylene-naphthalimide (TPE-naph) conjugates was synthesized by a molecular hybridization technique, and their anticancer activity was evaluated in vitro on 60 human cancer cell lines through their cytotoxicity. The ratios of E and Z isomers were determined on the basis of HPLC methodology and NMR spectroscopy. The structure-activity relationship for anticancer activity was deduced on the basis of the nature and bulkiness of the amine attached to the C-4 position of the naphthalene ring. Experimental and molecular modeling studies of the most active TPE-naph conjugate bearing a morpholinyl group showed that it was able to inhibit topoisomerase-II (TOPO-II) as a possible intracellular target. Moreover, the transportation behavior of TPE-naph conjugate towards human serum albumin (HSA) indicated efficient binding affinity. The steady-state and time-dependent fluorescent results suggested that this conjugate quenched HSA significantly through static as well as dynamic quenching. Thus, this report discloses the scope of triphenylethylene-naphthalimide (TPE-naph) conjugates as efficient anticancer agents.

In this study, a novel ligand (HL) consisting of 2-methyl quinoline-4-carboxylic acid, rhodamine and naphthalene moiety, was designed and synthesized, it could be developed a ratiometric fluorescent sensor for selective detection of Al3+ via fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) from naphthalimide moiety to rhodamine moiety. The addition of Al3+ trigger the significant fluorescence enhancement of HL at 550 nm at the expense of the fluorescent emission of HL centered at 524 nm.
