The exact location of the "nascent" phenolate group is Important. If it Is at the meso position, photoinduced electron transfer is triggered; however, if It is In full conjugation via a styryl moiety to the Bodipy core, strong intramolecular charge transfer Is triggered, resulting In a large red shift in the absorbance peak. In either case, a selective methodology for fluoride sensing is the Invariable result.EnglishFluoridesIonsPrecipitating factorsRespiratory electron transport chain processPolymethyl methacrylatePhenolicsPhenolateMethacrylatesReaction-based sensing of fluoride ions using built-in triggers for intramolecular charge transfer and photoinduced electron transferArticle10.1021/ol100172w1523-7052
