We herein report a cascade reaction-based switch-on fluorescence sensor for Ce(iv) ions. The mechanism is based on the ability of Ce(iv) ions to oxidize β-naphthol, which condenses with <i>o</i>-phenylenediamine to generate fluorescent benzo[<i>a</i>]phenazine. The sensor achieved a 200-fold fluorescence enhancement and was successfully applied to real sample detection. ...[more]
