A Rhodamine-based fluorescent sensor for chromium ions and its application in bioimaging

A rhodamine-based sensor(1) has been developed for the detection of chromium ions.Cr-(3+)-induced opening of the rhodamine spirocycle in sensor(1) led to the distinct colorimetric and fluorescence responses.Among all the tested ions,only Cr-(3+) generated a significant fluorescence enhancement of up...

Summary:A rhodamine-based sensor(1) has been developed for the detection of chromium ions.Cr-(3+)-induced opening of the rhodamine spirocycle in sensor(1) led to the distinct colorimetric and fluorescence responses.Among all the tested ions,only Cr-(3+) generated a significant fluorescence enhancement of up to13-fold,which indicated the high selectivity of 1.Sensor(1) was successfully applied in the in vivo fluorescence imaging of Cr-(3+) in C.elegans.The results provided solid evidences for the future estimation of Cr-(3+) in environmental applications and tobacco samples.
