A chemodosimeter approach to fluorescent sensing and imaging of inorganic and methylmercury species.
A highly sensitive fluorescent turn-on probe specific for methylmercury species as well as inorganic mercury ions has been developed on the basis of mercury ion-promoted hydrolysis of a fluorescein-derived aryl vinyl ether.
