Abstract
A system based on FRET mechanism, comprising a coumarin donor and a rhodamine acceptor, was developed for the selective and quantitative detection of metal ions. Fluorescent chemosensors RCs, linked by 1,2-diethylamine, exhibit significant fluorescence enhancement and excellent selectivity toward Cu 2+. Fluorescent probes CRB and CR6G, linked by hydrazide, function as ratiometric receptors for Cu 2+ chromogentically and fluorogentically in organic-aqueous media. Furthermore, the characteristic rhodamine-based fluorescence response of CRB (excitation at 550 nm) exhibits high selectivity for Hg(II). The construction of this kind of universal FRET system opens a broader prospect for future design of ratiometric fluorescent probes.
