We introduce a new rhodamine-based fluorescent chemosensor, FD8 which exhibits a distinct two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) on/off characteristic upon binding Cr3+ ions. By coordination with metal cation, conformation of FD8 changes from spirocyclic to open-ring, resulting in remarkable enhancement of absorption and fluorescence both in one- and two-photon excitations. As a result, a 29-fold enhancement of two-photon excited fluorescent intensity was observed when 10 eq. Cr3+ was added to the FD8 solution. The detection limit of Cr3+ cation concentration down to 1 μM (0.01 eq. of FD8) was achieved under our experimental condition. Besides the excitation within ultraviolet regime by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism, the TPEF on/off behavior further extends the excitation to near infrared regime (the biological optimal window of 700–1200 nm), and shows more effective sensitivity. The broad excitation wavelength, on/off fluorescence and high selectivity to Cr3+ enable FD8 to be a powerful Cr3+ cation sensor with potential application, especially in biological detection. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report about two-photon fluorescent sensor for Cr3+ ions.
