Abstract
A dual near-infrared pH fluorescent probe has been designed, synthesized and applied to HepG2 cells, with a pKa value of 5.14 under acidic conditions and 11.31 under basic conditions, which is valuable for studying acidic organelles in living cells and pH changes in chemical systems.Keywords
