Abstract

This paper reports development of an iron sensor, 2-(3H-pyrrolo[2,3-c]quinolin-4-yl)aniline (APQ). The fluorophore facilitates micromolar detection of Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ in the presence of various cations, including well-known interfering cations Co 2+ and Cu 2+ by the process of fluorescence quenching. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].
