Chromophores ranging from simple small molecule π-conjugated systems comprised of phenylene ethynylene or fluorenylethynyl units to cross-conjugated Bunz-type cruciforms have been derivatized to include 1,3-bis(dimethylaminomethyl)phenyl moieties. The photophysical responsiveness of these diamino-substituted chromophores to metal ions has been examined. Both emission enhancement (turn-on) and ratiometric fluorescence detection of Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions have been achieved in THF.
