Abstract

Colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescent probe for cations gain very well attention by the chemist, biologist and environmentalist. Metals has two sides, first is biolgical active for living creature and toxic nature for the ecosystem. From last three decades the scientists are contiously trying to find out the best solution for the detection of cations at micro as well as nanomolar levels. In the present review we discussed the colorimetric and ratiometric fluorescent probe synthesized by the authors in almost half decade.
