RESUMO
A new dicyanoisophorone-based ratiometric fluorescent probe NOSA was synthesized and characterized. It showed a fast fluorescence response to HClO with the emission color change from dark green to bright red. NMR, IR, and HRMS suggested that the detection of NOSA to HClO may originate from the hydroxyl deprotection reaction by HClO on the molecule NOSA, which caused a red-shift of fluorescence. The probe NOSA displayed high selectivity and excellent anti-interference performance with a limit of detection at 3.835 × 10-7 M. The convenient paper test strips were successfully obtained and applied to the detection of HClO based on fluorescence color change with the varied NaClO concentration. Moreover, spiked recovery experiments in real water samples indicated that the probe NSOA could quantitatively detect HClO, and the fluorescence bio-imagings in vivo were carried out, and HClO detection in biosystems using NOSA was realized.
