摘要:
Four probes (i.e. D1-D4) for the selective and sensitive fluorogenic detection of HS- have been prepared and characterised. HEPES (10mM, pH 7.4)-DMSO 99:1 v/v solutions of D1-D4 are essentially non-fluorescent. Changes in the emission using D1-D4 in the presence of anions (F-, Cl-, Br-, I-,[GRAPHICS], CN-, SCN-, AcO-,[GRAPHICS],[GRAPHICS],[GRAPHICS], HS- and OH-), biothiols (GSH, Cys, Hcy, Me-Cys and lipoic acid), reducing agents ([GRAPHICS]and[GRAPHICS]) and oxidants (H2O2) demonstrated that only HS- is able to induce the appearance of intense emission bands in the 400-520nm range in the four probes. The selectivity observed was ascribed to a unique hydrogen sulfide-induced hydrolysis of the 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether moiety that yielded the corresponding free highly fluorescent alcohols. The potential detection of intracellular HS- was also studied.
