Tracking host–guest recognition in cells by a BODIPY·CB[7] complex
Interested in host·guest binding events in cellular environments, intracellular recognition between fluorescent BODIPY<sup>+</sup> and cucurbit[7]uril was explored for lysosome tracking in living cancer cells. Sequential deaggregation from spontaneously dimerized BODIPY<sup>+</sup> was unusually discovered upon complexation with CB[7].
