    Abstract

    A rhodamine-based probe (FS1) was synthesized and its fluorescence properties and application to an iron-overloaded cell line demonstrated. FS1 underwent fluorogenic changes by the Fe3+-catalyzed reaction, even in the presence of other metal cations in vitro. Chemodosimeter FS1 demonstrated selective and sensitive detection of intracellular Fe3+ in hepatocytes.
