title: A Mononuclear Zinc Complex for Selective Detection of DiphosphateviaFluorescence ESIPT Turn-On.
abstract: A mononuclear zinc complex has been found to exhibit unexpected selectivity for biologically important diphosphate anions (PPi and ADP). The diphosphate binding could turn-on the ESIPT, whose study reveals mechanistic insight to aid the future design of new sensors.
