An off-the-shelf fluorescence turn-on Mg2+ chemosensor 3,5-dichlorosalicylaldehyde (BCSA) was rationally designed and developed. This proposed sensor works based on Mg2+-induced formation of the 2 : 1 BCSA-Mg2+ complex. The coordination of BCSA to Mg2+ increases its structural rigidity generating a chelation-enhanced fluorescence (CHEF) effect which was confirmed by single crystal XRD studies of the BCSA-Mg(2+ c)omplex and TD/DFT calculations. This sensor exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity for the quantitative monitoring of Mg2+ with a wide detection range (0-40 mu M), a low detection limit (2.89 x 10(-7) mol L-1) and a short response time (<0.5 s). It can also resist the interference from the other coexisting metal ions, especially Ca2+. Consequently, this fluorescent sensor can be utilized to monitor Mg2+ in real time within actual samples from drinking water.
