The phenolphthalein aldehyde was synthesized and used to a turn-on fluorescent probe for the detection of holmium ion (Ho3+) in HEPES : DMF = 1 : 1 (v/v pH = 7.4) solution with an excellent selectivity and sensitivity for Ho3+over other metal ions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
