Abstract

A simple asymmetric hydrazone 1 based on salicylaldehyde was designed and prepared, and exhibited an evident aggregation-induced emission (AIE) at a long wavelength of 570 nm in aqueous medium. Probe 1 can selectively sense Al3+ in CH3OH solution through the chelation-enhanced fluorescence mechanism and also recognize Cu2+ via fluorescence quenching in H2O solution through the Cu2+-induced assembly of aggregates. In addition, the probe can be applied for detecting Cu2+ in biological samples.
