title: Gelation-induced fluorescence enhancement of benzoxazole-based organogel and its naked-eye fluoride detection.
abstract: The benzoxazole derivative gelator forms a stable DMF/toluene cosolvent gel with dramatically enhanced fluorescence emission compared to its mother solution. The translucent colorless gel was changed to a solution with strong greenish fluorescence in the presence of fluoride anion with disruption of the gel structure.
