title: Metallohelical triangles for selective detection of adenosine triphosphate in aqueous media.
abstract: Metallohelical triangles consisting of chromophore units and hydrogen-bonding trigger sites were prepared by modulating two tridentate N(2)O units containing amide groups within a central benzene ring at the meta sites, for the selective detection of adenosine trisphosphate in aqueous media over other ribonucleotides.
