Abstract
The detection of trace amounts of sulfosulfuron, a pesticide of increasing importance, has become a pressing issue, prompting the development of effective chemosensors. In this study, we functionalized cyclotricatechylene (CTC) with propyl-phthalimide due to the presence of electronegative oxygen and nitrogen binding sites. Our optimized ligand displayed the highest docking score with sulfosulfuron, and experimental studies confirmed a significant fluorescence enhancement upon its interaction with sulfosulfuron. To gain a deeper understanding of the binding mechanism, we introduced density functional theory (DFT) studies. We carried out binding constant, Job's plot, and limit of detection (LOD) calculations to establish the effectiveness of our chemosensor as a selective detector for sulfosulfuron. These findings demonstrate the potential of our chemosensor for future applications in the field of pesticide detection.

Abstract
With the serendipitous discovery of crown ethers by Pedersen more than half a century ago and the subsequent introduction of host-guest chemistry and supramolecular chemistry by Cram and Lehn, respectively, followed by the design and synthesis of wholly synthetic cyclophanes-in particular, fluorescent cyclophanes, having rich structural characteristics and functions-have been the focus of considerable research activity during the past few decades. Cyclophanes with remarkable emissive properties have been investigated continuously over the years and employed in numerous applications across the field of science and technology. In this Review, we feature the recent developments in the chemistry of fluorescent cyclophanes, along with their design and synthesis. Their host-guest chemistry and applications related to their structure and properties are highlighted.
