Riboflavin-Based Fluorogenic Sensor for Chemo- and Enantioselective Detection of Amine Vapors

A novel turn-on fluorogenic chiral sensory system has been developed using a protonated riboflavin and riboflavin-derived cationic polymer as a fluorophore precursor and a specific amine receptor, respectively, which enables the solid-state chemo- and enantioselective fluorogenic visual detection of primary and secondary amine vapors.
