Recent advances in azo-based probes for analyte sensing: molecular nanoarchitectonics and advanced applications
This review examines recent advancements (2016–2025) in azo-based chemosensors for detecting metal ions, anions, and small molecules. A total of 52 structurally diverse probes were analysed and categorised into single-analyte and multi-analyte systems and assessed using a designed scoring framework across four dimensio...
