When a tertiary amine group is introduced into these types of probes, as exemplified by 3, an additional hydrogen bonding site to fluoride is created and a higher sensitivity to the ion is produced. In the amine protonated state of 3 3a) at pH 5.5, a hydrogen bonding interaction between the NH moi-
