Abstract

AbstractA novel coumarin–rhodamine conjugate was prepared, and its metal binding properties were studied by UV/Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. The conjugate serves as a ratiometric and highly selective fluorescent sensor for Hg2+ ions. Its metal‐responsive spectral properties were utilized to construct a molecular keypad lock with four inputs and dual fluorescence outputs. The complexity of this molecular logic network can greatly enhance the security level of this device.
