A novel AIE-based imidazolium fluorescent chemosensor TBTD-IA was designed and synthesized for highly selective and sensitive detection of carbonate ion (CO32−) in aqueous solution. TBTD-IA contains a triphenylamine-based red emission core, imidazolium and amide anions donors, and a long alkyl chain...
