title: An organometallic derivative of a BAPTA ligand: towards electrochemically controlled cation release in biocompatible media.
abstract: The combination of a ferrocenyl moiety with BAPTA provides a novel, water-soluble, redox-active chelator. This chelator behaving as a conformational sensor exhibits an unexpected electrochemical response with high affinity and selectivity for calcium.
