Coumarin Probe for Selective Detection of Fluoride Ions in Aqueous Solution and Its Bioimaging in Live Cells
We have synthesized novel coumarin-based fluorescent chemosensors for detection of fluoride ions in aqueous solution. The detection mechanism relied on a fluoride-mediated desilylation triggering fluorogenic reaction and a strong interaction between fluoride and the silicon center. In this work, the...
