Abstract
Efficient discrimination of amino acids (AAs) isomers is of significant importance for life science and analytical chemistry. Here, a dual-mode chiral discrimination strategy is proposed for visual and electrochemical chiral discrimination of tryptophan (Trp) isomers. Shikimic acid chiral ionic liquids (SCIL) is coordinated with copper ions (Cu2+), and the obtained SCIL-Cu2+ can form ternary complexes with the Trp isomers. Owing to the inherent chirality of SCIL and the reverse homochirality of L-Trp and D-Trp, the ternary complex of SCIL-Cu-D-Trp has higher stability than SCIL-Cu-L-Trp, as revealed by the calculated stability constants (K) and changes in Gibbs free energy (ΔG). The difference in the stability can be utilized for the chiral discrimination of L-Trp and D-Trp, resulting in discernible differences in colors and the electrochemical signals of the Trp isomers. Besides Trp, the isomers of phenylalanine (Phe) can also be discriminated by the proposed dual-mode chiral discrimination strategy with the SCIL-Cu2+ complex.

Abstract
Toward the challenges of signaling transduction amplified in enantioselective recognition, we herein devised an innovative strategy for highly selective recognition of amino acids and their derivatives, leveraging photothermal effects. In this approach, bifunctional l-ascorbic acid is employed to reduce silver ions in situ on Au nanostars. Simultaneously, its oxidate (l-dehydroascorbic acid) is bonded to the silver shell as a chiral selector to prepare chiral nanoparticles (C-AuNS@Ag NPs) with the ability to recognize stereoisomers and sensitively modulate the photothermal effect. l-Dehydroascorbic acid can selectively capture one of the enantiomers of the two forms through hydrogen bonding and drive aggregation of the nanoparticles, which sharply enhances the photothermal effect. Consequently, the two forms of the system exhibit a significant temperature difference, which enables the discrimination and quantification of enantiomers. Our strategy verifies that six chiral amino acids and their derivatives can be discriminated with enantioselective response values of up to 79. Additionally, the chiral recognition mechanism was revealed through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, providing a paradigm shift in the development of enantiomeric recognition strategies.

Abstract
Enantioselective discrimination of chiral molecules is essential in chemistry, biology, and medical science due to the configuration-dependent activities of enantiomers. Therefore, identifying a specific amino acid and distinguishing it from its enantiomer by using nanomaterials with outstanding performance are of great significance. Herein, blue- and green-emitting chiral silicon nanoparticles named bSiNPs and gSiNPs, respectively, with excellent water solubility, salt resistance, pH stability, photobleaching resistance, biocompatibility, and ability to promote soybean germination, were fabricated in a facile one-step method. Especially, chiral gSiNPs presented excellent fluorescence recognition ability for glutamic acid enantiomers within 1 min, and the enantiomeric recognition difference factor was as high as 9.0. The mechanism for enantiomeric fluorescence recognition was systematically explored by combining the fluorescence spectra with density functional theory (DFT) calculation. Presumably, the different Gibbs free energy and hydrogen-bonding interaction of the chiral recognition module with glutamic acid enantiomers mainly contributed to the difference in the fluorescence signals. Most noteworthy was the fact that the chiral gSiNPs can showcase not only the ability to recognize l- and d-glutamic acids in living cells but also the test strips fabricated by soaking gSiNPs can be applied for d-glutamic acid visual detection. As a result, this study provided insights into the design of multifunctional chiral sensing nanoplatforms for enantiomeric detection and other applications.
