A Novel Pyrazole-Based Fluorescent Probe for the Recognition of Fe (III), Fe (II), and Cu(II) Ions
This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of a novel pyrazole-based fluorescent probe (compound F) that exhibits high selectivity and sensitivity for the detection of Fe(III), Fe(II), and Cu(II) ions through fluorescence quenching, with a confirmed 1:1 binding stoichiometry and low detection limits validated by both experimental and theoretical studies.
