In the present work the photophysical properties of a chemodosimeter, 2‐[4’‐( N,N’ ‐dimethylamino‐biphenyl)‐4‐methylene]‐iminophenol, 5 has been explored to recognize Cu 2+ ion selectively through naked eye sensitive fluorescence “turn‐on” response. The observed fluorescence enhancement (∼58 fold) and rise in quantum yield (34%) with rapid response time is attributed to the hydrolysis of aldimine function in the presence of copper. The cell imaging studies showed that chemodosimeter, 5 is well‐suited to detect Cu 2+ intracellularly. Additionally, the “Off–On” switching behavior of 5 has been utilized to mimic the function of a sequential logic circuit at molecular level.
