The present invention provides an Fe(II) ion detection agent capable of fluorescently detecting Fe(II) ions quickly with high sensitivity, and a method for detecting Fe(II) ions using the agent. The invention relates to an Fe(II) ion detection agent comprising a compound represented by formula (I) (fluorescence probe):
wherein R 1 and R 2 represent lower alkyl and the like; R 3 and R 4 represent hydrogen and the like; R 5 represents hydrogen, hydroxyl, or a group represented by formula (A) : -NR 54 R 52 wherein R 51 and R 52 represent lower alkyl and the like; R 6 and R 7 represent hydrogen and the like; ring A represents an aromatic ring and the like; V represents O or SiR 10 R 11 wherein R 10 and R 11 are the same or different and represent hydrogen or lower alkyl; W represents CH 2 , CO, and the like; Z represents O, and the like; m and n are the same or different and represent 0 or 1,
in combination with a compound having at least three coordinating positions, and the invention also relates to a method for detecting Fe(II) ions using the agent. |
