Synthesis of Fluorescent Pyrazoline Sensors as Versatile Tool for Zinc ion Detection: A Mini-Review.

ABSTRACT

Zinc ions are one of the 2nd most abundant mineral after iron and it is important for immune system, enzymatic catalysis, DNA synthesis, and maintaining structural integrity in humans. But, monitoring the Zn levels in human body poses more challenges. This review paper investigates (paper from 2010 to 2023) the synthesis of pyrazoline derivatives by different methods, including conventional methods and green chemistry protocol. These Pyrazoline derivatives highlighted for their potential application as chemo-sensor for Zn2+ ions recognition. Pyrazoline compounds exhibit excellent sensitivity & selectivity and emitting blue-light with high quantum yields and electroluminescence, along with a superior limit of detection. These derivatives are stable bioactive molecule, with well-known diverse biological activities. This review not only gives valuable insights into the essential role of Zinc in human physiology but also provides a practical method for accurate Zinc detection in various samples. Which holds the potential for advancements in health diagnostics and environmental monitoring. Because of their significant biological application and selectivity as sensors, researchers have much more attention to prepare green environmentally-friendly pyrazoline derivatives.
