title: Highly selective colorimetric chemosensor for Co2+.
abstract: A new highly selective colorimetric chemosensor for Co(2+) was developed based on coumarin-conjugated thiocarbanohydrazone. The ligand senses Co(2+) in solution by changing its color from light yellow to deep pink. The sensor has been used in the development of practically viable colorimetric kits and as a staining agent for Co(2+) in microorganisms.
