title: Preassembly-driven ratiometric sensing of H2PO4(-) anions in organic and aqueous environments.
abstract: Gemini surfactant-like receptor is designed and synthesized. The special preassembly phenomenon of in a nonpolar solvent facilitates the novel ratiometric fluorescence sensing of H2PO4(-)via an anion-induced reassembly process in organic solvents and an anion-induced disassembly process in water.
