Hydroxyquinolines with extended fluorophores: arrays for turn-on and ratiometric sensing of cations

Manuel A. Palacios, Zhuo Wang, Victor A. Montes, Grigory V. Zyryanov, Bethany J. Hausch, Karolina Jursíková and Pavel Anzenbacher Jr.

8-Hydroxyquinoline-based ligands with extended conjugated fluorophores were designed to provide turn-on and ratiometric signal output optimized for use in fluorescence-based sensor arrays, where the changes in blue and green channels of the RGB signal are used to distinguish between cationic analytes.
