A π‐conjugated phenylaza‐15‐crown‐5‐triazol‐substituted coumarin fluoroionophore 1 was synthesized by copper(I)‐catalyzed Huisgen alkyne‐azide 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition (CuAAC "click" reaction). 1 can display selective fluorescence enhancement toward Fe3+ over Hg2+, Cr3+ and the other metal ions in aqueous solution. In sharp contrast, the fluorescence behavior between Fe3+ and Hg2+ is completely reversed in EtOH. That is, Hg2+ gives the largest fluorescence enhancement over Cr3+, Fe3+ and the other metal ions.
