Abstract

Chemosignaling of hydrazine by selective deprotection of levulinated coumarin was investigated. In the presence of hydrazine, levulinated coumarin was selectively deprotected, resulting in chromogenic and fluorescent turn-on type signaling. The selective naked-eye detectable signaling of hydrazine was possible in the presence of representative metal ions and common anions in an aqueous environment.
