Development of a Ratiometric Fluorescent Cu(II) Indicator Based on Poly(<i>N</i>-isopropylacrylamide) Thermal Phase Transition and an Aminopyridyl Cu(II) Ligand

An aqueous Cu<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup> indicator is reported based on copolymerizing aminopyridine ligands and the environment-sensitive dansyl fluorophore into the responsive polymer poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAm). The metal ion binding creates charge and solva...
