Electrochemical sensors based on novel molecular receptors
Chemical sensors are attractive analytical devices, which can deliver real-time and on-line information on the presence of specific compounds in complex samples. Due to their high selectivity, sensitivity and wide spectrum of design solutions, they are competitive tools among analytical control systems. The crucial element of the sensor is a molecular receptor capable of selectively recognizing an analyte, and the coordination abilities of such a ligand determine the performance of the sensor.
The aim of the research is to design and construct classic/miniaturized electrochemical sensors using new molecular receptors. The work is related to the synthesis of selective receptors (cooperation with Dr A. Kasprzak, Department of Organic Chemistry), which structure will be carefully tuned in terms of the recognition of analytes, important from the point of view of medical diagnostics or environmental protection.

My scientific interests include the organic and supramolecular chemistry, mostly related to the design of novel chemical molecular receptors based on polyaromatic compounds. Research works merge the preparative organic chemistry with the studies on non-covalent interactions of the designed compounds with analytes. In particular, my research group specializes in the modification and applications of sumanene derivatives. Sumanene is the C3-symmetric C60-fullerene fragment. The unique feature of sumanene is its bowl shape, which causes the attractive properties of this molecule. My research group of one in Poland and one of few worldwide working in the area of applied chemistry of sumanene, especially in the field of design of molecular receptors. My scientific interests are also focused on the design of molecular receptors featuring the aggregation-induced emission enhancement effect. To synthesize such receptors, we synthesize novel polyaromatic compounds featuring this effect and we are studying their applications as receptors, mostly of ions (inorganic and bio-relevant ones).
