A new chromogenic complex 1.Zn has been synthesized, and its interactions with different biologically important phosphates have been investigated in aqueous solution (pH approximately 7.2). A visual color change can be detected on binding of ATP to 1.Zn, whereas no such change is observed when other biologically related anions (AMP, ADP, PPi, or Phosphate) are used. Complex 1.Zn can also be used as a staining agent for yeast cells allowing detection under normal light microscopy.
