Abstract
Fluorescein derivatives that contain Lewis basic heterocycles have been synthesized by concise reaction sequences. The preparation of these compounds proceeds by functionalization of an electron-rich aromatic precursor and subsequent condensation to form the fluorophore. These compounds are envisioned as components of metal-based sensors.
