Abstract
- Solutions of two solvatochromic dyes are colored in acetonitrile.
- Solutions are colorless when a boronic acid (PBA) is added: dye-PBA species is formed.
- Fâ and CNâ displace the dye leaving group, causing the reappearance of the color.
- The system becomes highly selective toward CNâ on addition of small amounts of water.
- Water strongly solvates Fâ, but CNâ is suitably naked to react with dye-PBA species.
