The exquisite integration of 1,3,4-thiadiazole and large conjugated group for constructing multi-functional fluorescence probe to detect TNP and Cu2+ in environment, food and living cells.

2,4,6-Trinitrophenol (TNP) and copper ion (Cu2+), as widely used industrial materials, poses potential threat to ecological environment and food safety. Thus, 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole was utilized as bi-functional skeleton and three fluorescent probes XL, XD and XS for dual detection of TNP and Cu2+ were s...
