Abstract

Sugar recognition in an aqueous system has been achieved using a boronic acid-diol interaction. Combination with an intramolecular amino group has enabled us to read out the binding process as a change in the fluorescence intensity. The novel interaction has been extended to dynamic sugar sensing utilizing an allosteric effect, molecular imprinting, and control of molecular assemblies.
