When having the blues isn't so bad : While normal coordination chemistry is observed when FeCl 3 and the potential ligand 1 (see scheme) are mixed in dichloromethane, redox chemistry occurs in acetonitrile, which involves CH activation and CN bond formation, and finally leads to a water‐soluble blue fluorophore 2 .
