Self-Assembled Fluorescent Nanoprobe for the Detection of Fluoride Ions in Aqueous Solutions

Authors:

Abstract
A fluorescent nanoprobe was designed based on self-assembled seminaphthorhodafluor (SNARF) derivatives (SNARF-OTBDPS) to detect the fluoride ions present in aqueous solutions. The tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) group in SNARF-OTBDPS showed good stability against hydrolysis by forming self-assembled clusters and retained good selectivity towards fluoride ions in aqueous solution.
