A prototype for the chemosensing of Ba2+ based on self-assembling fluorescence enhancement.
Barium ion can be revealed at the micromolar concentration level by the blue-green fluorescence which arises upon the self-assembling process involving the metal ion and a novel bis-15-crown-5-naphthalenediimide derivative.
