Viscosity-sensitive and AIE-active bimodal fluorescent probe for the selective detection of OCl− and Cu2+: a dual sensing approach via DFT and biological studies using green gram seeds

A novel dual-mode viscosity-sensitive and AIE-active fluorescent chemosensor based on the naphthalene coupled pyrene (NCP) moiety was designed and synthesized for the selective detection of OCl − and Cu 2+ .
