“…The substituted benzene ring enables various chemical modifications, and many kinds of chemosensors based on the rhodamine skeleton have been developed [ 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ]. Furthermore, recent reports have demonstrated interesting features of fluorescent dyes in which the oxygen atom of rhodamine is replaced with heteroatoms [ 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ], such as silicon [ 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ], phosphorus [ 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 ], sulfur [ 35 , 36 ], and boron [ 14 , 15 ]. Only two cases of boron-substituted rhodamine have been reported and there is still much room for further investigation.…”
