title: A fluorescent organic cage for picric acid detection.
abstract: Dynamic covalent imine chemistry has been utilized to synthesize a fluorescent [3+2] self-assembled nanoscopic organic cage. The fluorescent nature of the reduced analogue of the cage was further exploited for the highly selective detection of the explosive picric acid (PA).
