title: Fluorescence sensing of ADP over ATP and PPi in 100% aqueous solution.
abstract: An anthracene-bridged dinuclear zinc(ii)-dipicolylamine complex was found to show high selectivity for ADP with a significant fluorescence enhancement over ATP, PPi and other common analytes in 100% aqueous solution. This complex can be used for fluorescence detection of ADP in living cells and for monitoring the activity of kinases.
