Abstract

Abstract: In this investigation, a new terpyridine metal complex was developed as a probe for selective detection of ATP and imaging of melanoma cells. The probe takes advantage of the ability of the metal complex to be transformed to its imaging competent turn‐on state through assembly with ATP. Abstract : A new terpyridine–Zn complex was shown to serve as a selective turn‐on fluorescence sensor of ATP and a probe for imaging melanoma cells.
