A colorimetric molecular probe for Cu(ii) ions based on the redox properties of Ru(ii) phthalocyanines

Abstract
The one-electron oxidation of a Ru(II) phthalocyanine induces a dramatic colour change and provides a useful tool for the selective and highly sensitive colorimetric detection of copper(II) ions in neat aqueous solutions.
