Used as a fluorescent probe for detecting metal ions in environmental and biological samples due to its strong chelating and photophysical properties. Its structure allows selective binding with ions like Al³⁺ and Zn²⁺, resulting in noticeable changes in fluorescence intensity. Employed in chemosensor development for real-time monitoring of trace metals. Also investigated for potential use in bioimaging and as a sensor material in solid-state devices because of its stability and emission characteristics in different solvents. Shows promise in analytical chemistry for qualitative and quantitative detection of heavy metals in water systems.
