Abstract:
This study reveals that a dipropargyl rhodamine B derivative previously described as a reaction-based irreversible palladium probe responds, however, more sensitively to mercury with a reversible "turn-on" fluorescence. The probe also shows a much better imaging ability for mercury than for palladium in live cells.
