Abstract

Abstract: Designing an effective sensor molecule for the selective detection of analyte with dual sensitivity is an innovative approach and is expected to offer huge biological and environmental benefits. Contrary to other sensing process, the reversible recognition of two different analytes while varying the binding sites and signaling subunits is entirely a new concept as the metal ion present in the ensemble can be easily displaced in the presence of ionic or neutral analytes. A reversible strategy can also be employed in the simultaneous recognition and identification of two different analytes with the aid of highly selective and sensitive chemosensors. This review gives an overview of the recent inventions (from 2012 to 2017) in the field of colorimetric and fluorescent receptors towards the detection of two analytes via a relay recognition process. A special emphasis is placed on different mechanisms associated with the sensing process assisted by fluorescence induced receptors which will help to design an effective sensor system for the selective detection of anions or amino acids or metal ions. Abstract : This review covers, Successive recognition of toxic and important ionic and neutral analytes using tailor‐fit receptor by means of cascade/complex formation in organic/semi‐organic/aqueous medium by giving obvious naked eye observable colorimetric and fluorometric response with obvious selectivity and specificity, reported from 2012–2017.
