A simple ratiometric sensor (L1) for the cascade detection of Zn2+ and H2PO4− with high selectivity was reported based on the intermolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism.
A fluorescent sensor based on aggregation-induced emission for amines was prepared and its highly sensitive detection of hydrazine and application in living cell imaging were investigated in detail.
A novel fluorescent probe (XL-1) exhibited over 50-fold enhanced fluorescence in the presence of Hg2+ and no interference could be produced by other metal ions, anions and amino acids.
We report two novel fluorescent probes viz.BPQ1 and BPQ2, to detect selectively cysteine (Cys) in dual reporter mode based upon the specific position of the reactive acrylate group.
