摘要
A simple, water-soluble, Fe3＋-selective fluorescent probe, derived from rhodamine B, was synthesized and characterized. The probe exhibits a fluorescence response toward Fe3＋ with acceptable sensitivity and selectivity and even facilitates visual or naked-eye detection of Fe3＋. The experiment results show that the response of the probe to Fe3＋ is pH-independent over a wide range of 4.0-10.0. In addition, fluorescence microscopic imaging experiments have proven that the probe is cell permeable and can be used for monitoring intracellular Fe3＋ in living cells.
