Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The concept of sensing metal cations</bold> by using fluorescence changes in non‐aggregating AzaPc molecules that exhibit significant intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) in the OFF state was demonstrated by binding Na⁺ and K⁺ to an aza[15]crown‐5 recognition moiety. It is important to note that this concept works not only in organic solvents, but also in water after the sensor molecules are incorporated into silica nanoparticles.
