Abstract

A naphthalimide-based water soluble Zn ²⁺ sensor bearing polyamino carboxylate as a metal chelating moiety was synthesized and its application for the selective detection of Zn ²⁺ ion in 100% aqueous solution is demonstrated. The newly developed fluorescent sensor exhibits selective binding affinity towards Zn ²⁺ and pH insensitivity in biologically relevant range. Confocal fluorescent microscopy images indicate that this probe works effectively for intracellular Zn ²⁺ imaging with high cell permeability.
