Abstract
In this work, a Schiff base AIE fluorescent probe (Compound 2)was designed and synthesized for detecting H2O2. The synthesis process of the probe was described in detail and characterized by 1 H NMR, 13 C NMR and HRMS. The performance (spectral properties, AIE property, concentration titration test, detection limit, selectivity and anti-interference capability, effect of pH and temperature, and response time) of the probe was extensively investigated. The Compound 2 not only had excellent selectivity, sensitivity and special selectivity for detecting H2O2, but also had good anti-interference ability to pH and temperature. Biological experiments had proved that the probe had low cytotoxicity, and successfully achieved the detection of exogenous and endogenous H2O2 in tumor cells and zebrafish, which would realize the early tumor diagnosis.
期刊介绍:
Tetrahedron publishes full accounts of research having outstanding significance in the broad field of organic chemistry and its related disciplines, such as organic materials and bio-organic chemistry.
Regular papers in Tetrahedron are expected to represent detailed accounts of an original study having substantially greater scope and details than that found in a communication, as published in Tetrahedron Letters.
Tetrahedron also publishes thematic collections of papers as special issues and ''Reports'', commissioned in-depth reviews providing a comprehensive overview of a research area.
