A new family of coumarin-based pH indicators was synthesized. They are sensitive to pH in either weakly acidic or weakly basic solution. The indicators possess moderate to high brightness, excellent photostability and compatibility with light-emitting diodes. The indicators were covalently immobilized on the surface of amino-modified polymer microbeads which in turn were incorporated into a hydrogel matrix to obtain novel pH-sensitive materials. When a mixture of two different microbeads is used, the membranes are capable of optical pH sensing over a very wide range comparable to the dynamic range of the glass electrode (pH 1–11). A new family of coumarin-based pH indicators is synthesized for the use in either weakly acidic or weakly basic solution. The indicators possess moderate to high brightness, excellent photostability and compatibility with light-emitting diodes. Novel pH-sensitive materials are obtained by covalent immobilization of the indicators on the surface of amino-modified polymer microbeads which in turn are incorporated into a hydrogel matrix. Sensing of pH over a very wide range also becomes possible.
