Abstract
A new structurally characterised half-condensed Schiff base (<bold>HL′</bold>) and a <bold>Zn2L4</bold> complex reacting from Zn<sup>2+</sup> ion and <bold>HL</bold> produced from <bold>HL′</bold> in a solution state as smart chemosensors for Zn<sup>2+</sup> and H<sub>2</sub>PO<sub>4</sub><sup>−</sup> ions respectively in aqueous medium.
