Abstract

Fe‐based nanostructures have possessed promising properties that make it suitable for chiral sensing and imaging applications owing to their ultra‐small size, non‐toxicity, biocompatibility, excellent photostability, tunable fluorescence, and water solubility. This review summarizes the recent research progress in the field of Fe‐based nanostructures and places special emphases on their applications in chiral sensing and imaging. The synthetic strategies to prepare the targeted Fe‐based structures were also introduced. The chiral sensing and imaging applications of the nanostructures are discussed in details.
