Interestingly, this sensor possessed the potential for sensitive and selective detection of long-chain aldehydes, particularly nonanal (C9), and subsequently formed supramolecular pseudorotaxane polymeric nanoparticles inducing a strong fluorescence enhancement. In addition, this as-produced HNP5A⊂C9 exhibited an unexpected reduction of Ag+ to produce AgNPs in an aqueous system and the resulting AgNPs-HNP5A⊂C9 demonstrated a significant fluorescence enhancement under metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF) behaviour.Chemical EngineeringSupramolecular self-assembled polymeric nanospheres based on hydrazino naphthalimide functionalised pillar[5]arene for long chain aldehyde detectionArticleSCOPUS10.1039/d3cc02222f2-s2.0-851654778971364548X37431734
