This probe exhibits excellent Cu2+ ion selectivity as well as significant color changes visible to the naked eye at the concentration of 0.03 mM (ca. 2.0 mg/L), the WHO (World Health Organization) recommended level (2.0 mg/L) of Cu2+ ions in drinking water. This novel rhodamine-based fluorescence probe can be directly used to detect Cu2+ with satisfactory sensitivity and selectivity in aqueous solution.展开更多
