We described a new ensemble‐approach‐based chemosensor, NCH‐Cu 2+ , for highly selective and reversible detection of histidine (His) in aqueous solution and live cells. The ligand NCH exhibited specific binding with Cu 2+ ions over other metal ions, accompanied with a 92.2 % fluorescence quenching. The decomplexation of NCH‐Cu 2+ ensemble by His led to the liberation of the fluorophore, NCH, and thus the fluorescence was recovered. The specific fluorescence enhancement of NCH‐Cu 2+ towards His showed a good linearity with a detection of limit at 70 n m . Quantification of intracellular His at the single cell level was achieved by microscopy and flow cytometry. Besides the UV/Vis and emission titration, reversibility of the NCH‐Cu 2+ towards His was further confirmed by imaging and cytometry analysis. In addition, microscopy studies revealed that NCH‐Cu 2+ was distributed in the lysosome of live cells, where it could be employed as a fluorescent biosensor for imaging of His at subcellular level.
