A BODIPY-based fluorescent probe for the differential recognition of Hg(ii) and Au(iii) ions

Abstract

We describe the design, synthesis and spectral behaviour of a fluorescent molecular sensor able to recognize Hg2+ and Au3+ ions via different emission modes. The molecular sensor is constructed on a single BODIPY dye appended with a semithio-carbazone functionality as a recognition motif.
