Due to different pull-push electronic effects of ligands, the fluorescence intensities of these terbium complexes significantly varied, that is： LⅡ·Tb 〉L（Ⅲ）·Tb〉 LⅠ·Tb. Meanwhile, the characteristic peaks at 492 nm（5D4→7F6） and 547 nm（5 D4→7F5） showed ＂Off–On–Off＂ fluorescence response to various p H conditions,which indicated that all of them can be used as the highly sensitive pH fluorescent probes. Notably, using LⅡ·Tb with the best fluorescence performance as a probe, some patients＇ urine samples can be easily monitored through the response triggered by pH value. Therefore, LⅡ·Tb has the potential to auxiliarily diagnose some diseases in clinical practice through p H detection of routine urine test.展开更多
