Naphthalimide‐based fluorescent probes 1 and 2 were synthesized, and were designed to form probe–Hg complexes through Hg 2+ ions coordinated to the amide group and imidazole group. They showed high sensitivity and were selective ‘naked‐eye’ chemosensors for Hg 2+ in phosphate buffer. The fluorescence of compounds 1 and 2 could be quenched up to 90% by the addition of Hg 2+ . Reversible probes can detect Hg 2+ ions over a wide pH range (7.0–10.0). Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
