Peng HY, Zhang G, Sun R, Xu YJ, Ge JF. ESIPT-based fluorescent enhanced probes prompted by methylated β-cyclodextrin for the detection of thiophenols. SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2023; 302:123012. [PMID: 37329832 DOI: 10.1016/j.saa.2023.123012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2023] [Revised: 05/24/2023] [Accepted: 06/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
Thiophenol and its derivatives are compounds with high toxicity to organisms and environmental pollution, so it is necessary to detect the level of thiophenols in the environment and biological samples. The probes 1a-b were obtained by introducing the 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether group into diethylcoumarin-salicylaldehyde based compounds. And they can form host-guest compounds with methylated β-cyclodextrin (M-β-CD), the association constants of inclusion complexes are 49.2 M-1, 125 M-1 respectively. The fluorescence intensities of probes 1a-b at 600 nm (1a) and 670 nm (1b) increased significantly in thiophenols detection. Meanwhile, with the addition of M-β-CD, the hydrophobic cavity of M-β-CD significantly increased the fluorescence intensity of probes 1a-b, thus the detection limits of probes 1a-b to thiophenols were reduced from 410 nM, 365 nM to 62 nM, 33 nM respectively. Whereas, the good selectivity and short response time of probes 1a-b towards thiophenols was not affected in the presence of M-β-CD. Moreover, probes 1a-b were used for further water sample detection and HeLa cell imaging experiments due to their good response to thiophenols and the results suggested that probes 1a-b had the potential to detect the content of thiophenols in water samples and living cells.

NIR squaraine dyes for dual colorimetric and fluorescent determination of Fe 3+, Cu 2+, and Hg 2+ ions. RSC Adv 2023; 13:17202-17211.

Abstract
Four benzoindolenine-based squaraine dyes (SQs), which have the advantages of intense visible and near-infrared (NIR) absorption and emission (λabs/max 663-695 nm, λem/max 686-730 nm) were synthesized and characterized by UV-vis absorption, fluorescent emission spectrophotometry, FTIR, NMR and HRMS analysis. Among them, BBSQ showed excellent performance, which exhibited high selectivity to Fe3+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ in acetonitrile solution even in the presence of other competitive metal ions, accompanied by obvious color change easily detected by the naked eye. The detection limit was 14.17 μM for Fe3+ and 6.06 μM for Cu2+. Most importantly, the response mechanism of BBSQ to Fe3+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ involves the coordination of BBSQ and metal ions through the O atom on the central squarate ring, N atom, and olefin π bond of BBSQ and has been demonstrated by Job's plot, FTIR, and 1H NMR titration analyses. Furthermore, BBSQ was applied successfully to detect Fe3+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ in thin-layer chromatography (TLC) plates with good precision and is quite promising for the quantitative detection of Fe3+ and Cu2+ ions in water samples.

Abstract
Thiophenols (ArSHs) are widely used as popular flavoring ingredients for making daily dishes. Dissecting the ArSHs contents in common foodstuffs is meaningful in the field of food safety science. Herein, a novel small-molecule sensor 2-(1H-benzo[d]imidazol-2-yl)-3-(2-(2,4-dinitrophenoxy)-4-morpholinophenyl)acrylonitrile (NOSA) has been tailored. The NOSA is able to respond to ArSHs, spontaneously yielding highly green-emissive fluorescent iminocoumarin (I500). This cascade reaction-based strategy is sensitive (limit-of-detection = 2.8 nM), rapid (within 5 min), and selective toward ArSH flavors. Probe NOSA has been applied to the determination of ArSHs in real-life meat products and condiments. Moreover, a far-red fluorescent compound, 2-(7-(diethylamino)-4-(4-(methylthio)styryl)-2H-chromen-2-ylidene)malononitrile (CMMT), has been first combined with NOSA to construct a composite probe NOSA@CMMT for the ratiometric detection of ArSHs (I500/I630). System NOSA@CMMT exhibits a conspicuous fluorescence change from deep-red to light-green. Benefitted from the gorgeous chromatic fluctuation, a smartphone-integrated analysis platform is established for the real-time evaluation of ArSHs level.

Abstract
Many successful stories in enzyme engineering are based on the creation of randomized diversity in large mutant libraries, containing millions to billions of enzyme variants. Methods that enabled their evaluation with high throughput are dominated by spectroscopic techniques due to their high speed and sensitivity. A large proportion of studies relies on fluorogenic substrates that mimic the chemical properties of the target or coupled enzymatic assays with an optical read-out that assesses the desired catalytic efficiency indirectly. The most reliable hits, however, are achieved by screening for conversions of the starting material to the desired product. For this purpose, functional group assays offer a general approach to achieve a fast, optical read-out. They use the chemoselectivity, differences in electronic and steric properties of various functional groups, to reduce the number of false-positive results and the analytical noise stemming from enzymatic background activities. This review summarizes the developments and use of functional group probes for chemoselective derivatizations, with a clear focus on screening for enzymatic activity in protein engineering.

Abstract
Biothiols (cysteine, homocysteine, and glutathione) are an important class of compounds with a free thiol group. These biothiols plays an important role in several metabolic processes in living bodies when present in optimum concentration. Researchers have developed several probes for the detection and quantification of biothiols that can absorb in UV, visible, and near-infrared (NIR) regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. Among them, NIR organic probes have attracted significant attention due to their application in in vivo and in vitro imaging. In this review, we have summarized probes for these biothiols, which could work in the NIR region, and discussed their sensing mechanism and potential applications. Along with focusing on the pros and cons of the reported probes we have classified them according to the fluorophore used and summarized their photophysical and sensing properties (emission, response time, limit of detection).

Abstract
Squaraines (SQs) are unusual cyanine dyes with a unique resonance-stabilized zwitterionic structure. These dyes have attracted significant attention in the fields of organic electronics and organic photonics, due to their facile synthesis, intense and narrow visible and near-infrared absorption/emission, high photostability, low biotoxicity, etc. In this review, we summarize the recent progress of SQ-based fluorescent materials and their biomedical applications. After a brief introduction to SQs, general synthetic routes and design principles of SQ-based fluorescent materials, as well as their aggregation-induced luminescence behaviors, are discussed. Subsequently, their biomedical applications for cell imaging and as fluorescent sensors and therapeutic agents are introduced. Finally, a summary and perspective are given for promoting the development of SQs-based fluorescent materials.

Abstract
Though a number of on-off or off-on fluorescent probes have been developed for the detection of thiophenol by using its unique recognition groups, such as 2, 4-dinitrophenyl ether, 2, 4-dinitrophenyl sulfonamide, and 2, 4-dinitrophenyl sulfonate, up to now, there are few probes that can detect thiophenol by the proportional fluorescence signal. We developed a ratiometric fluorescent probe with coumarin pyridine derivative as fluorophore and 2, 4-dinitrophenyl ether moiety as the sensing unit which could be used to detect thiophenol derivatives by the aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction. This probe (CPBPN) displayed significant change in fluorescence ratio (256 fold) to result in a more reliable analysis by self-calibration and a relatively low detection limit of 24 nM toward 4-methylthiophenol (MTP) within 30 min to achieve more sensitivity. Besides, the probe was also applied to detect the presence of thiophenol derivatives in actual water samples and fluorescence imaging in living cells. The present work is of great importance for monitoring environmental pollutants and studying their biological function.

Abstract
Thiophenol and hydrosulphite are a group of toxic environmental pollutants, which contaminate land, water and food exhibiting a serious risk to human health. Herein, we reported a xanthene dye-based sensor (DSF) with dual well-known response sites for visual detecting PhSH and HSO3-. Specifically, when DSF reacted with PhSH firstly, the color of the solution changed to blue with bright red fluorescence emission. After added with HSO3-, the color of the solution became yellow, and emitted yellow fluorescence signal. However, DSF was first added with HSO3-, the color of the solution changed to purple with no-fluorescence emission, and then PhSH was added, the color of the solution changed to yellow with a bright yellow fluorescence. Notably, DSF exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity for PhSH and HSO3- detection with a very low detection limits of 2.27 nM and 22.91 nM, respectively. More importantly, DSF could detect PhSH and HSO3- in water, real-food and biological systems. Therefore, the experimental results showed DSF as a robust new logical monitoring tool for the detection of PhSH and HSO3- in water, real-food samples and biological systems.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is a highly invasive malignant tumor of the liver, which is the main cause of cancer-related death. The cancerization of hepatocytes may lead to the changes of cell microenvironment, active substances, and enzymes. Viscosity is one of the important parameters of cell microenvironment. Therefore, the study of the change in the viscosity of hepatocytes is very important for the detection and treatment of liver cancer. However, the hepatocyte-specific fluorescent probes which can detect viscosity have not been developed yet. Herein, the first hepatocyte-specific fluorescent probe (HT-V) for viscosity detection was designed and synthesized, which exhibited excellent optical properties for biological imaging studies. By using the unique probe HT-V, compared with the normal liver cells, a significant increase of viscosity in the liver cancer cells was observed in the cell imaging experiment. The organ imaging experiments showed that the probe HT-V could be successfully used to diagnose and image hepatocellular carcinoma in vivo. In addition, in situ imaging revealed that the new probe HT-V can specifically target and image hepatocellular carcinoma in mice. We expected that this powerful tool may provide guidance for the detection and imaging of hepatocellular carcinoma in the future.

Abstract
Small molecule-based chromogenic and fluorogenic probes play an indispensable role in many sensing applications. Ideal optical chemosensors should provide selectivity and sensitivity towards a variety of analytes. Synthetic accessibility and attractive photophysical properties have made squaraine dyes an enticing platform for the development of chemosensors. This review highlights the versatility of modular assemblies of squaraine-based chemosensors and chemodosimeters that take advantage of the availability of various structurally and functionally diverse recognition motifs, as well as utilizing additional recognition capabilities due to the unique structural features of the squaraine ring.

Abstract
Diagnosing aging for preventative intervention generally relies on the tracking of aging biomarkers in the resting state. However, the static marker levels are insufficient to fully evaluate aging, particularly given that the stress response capacity (SRC) decay is currently viewed as a critical feature of aging. Therefore, we have developed a dual-channel fluorescent probe ROKS capable of the logic-based visualization of thiophenol (stressor) and HOCl (thiophenol-activated stress response product) in vivo, which provides a new strategy from the time dimension to precisely assess the SRC of individuals under stress using the dual-channel fluorescence ratio. Using ROKS we observed that the SRC of live cells decayed with senescence, and that a higher SRC was found for young vs. aged Caenorhabditis elegans. As such, our study offers a promising strategy for the fluorescence-guided diagnosis of aging and paves the way for accurate evaluation of the efficacy of anti-aging drugs. Rather than tracking aging using the resting state, ROKS, an optical probe, was developed for evaluating the degree of aging dynamically by precisely monitoring the stress response of individuals under stress.![]()

Fluorescent probes based on nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions for reactive sulfur and selenium species: Recent progress, applications, and design strategies. Coord Chem Rev 2021; 427:213601. [PMID: 33024340 PMCID: PMC7529596 DOI: 10.1016/j.ccr.2020.213601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 42] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Accepted: 09/07/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Reactive sulfur species (RSS) and reactive selenium species (RSeS) are important substances for the maintenance of physiological balance. Imbalance of RSS and RSeS is closely related to a series of human diseases, so it is considered to be an important biomarker in early diagnosis, treatment, and stage monitoring. Fast and accurate quantitative analysis of different RSS and RSeS in complex biological systems may promote the development of personalized diagnosis and treatment in the future. One way to explore the physiological function of various types of RSS and RSeS in vivo is to detect them at the molecular level, and one of the most effective methods for this is to use fluorescent probes. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reactions are commonly exploited as a detection mechanism for RSS and RSeS in fluorescent probes. In this review, we cover recent progress in fluorescent probes for RSS and RSeS based on SNAr reactions, and discuss their response mechanisms, properties, and applications. Benzenesulfonate, phenyl-O ether, phenyl-S ether, phenyl-Se ether, 7-nitro-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (NBD), benzoate, and selenium-nitrogen bonds are all good detection groups. Moreover, based on an integration of different reports, we propose the design and synthesis of RSS- and RSeS-selective probes based on SNAr reactions, current challenges, and future research directions, considering the selection of active sites, the effect of substituents on the benzene ring, and the introduction of other functional groups.

Abstract
Although (E)-4-(2-(4-(dicyanomethylene)-4H-chromen-2-yl)vinyl)phenolate anion (DCPO- ) has recently emerged as a potential near infrared (NIR) biosensor signaling unit, the pKa value of its conjugate acid is relatively high (∼9); this will lead to relatively low concentrations of DCPO- under physiological conditions and, hence, unsatisfactory sensitivity of DCPO- -based bio-probes. By difluoro-substitution on DCPO- , we have exploited a new fluorophore of o-FDCPO- whose conjugate acid has a much lower pKa value of 7.42. Meanwhile, o-FDCPO- is NIR emissive with λem =693 nm and has a 0.76-fold higher fluorescence efficiency than DCPO- . The significant superiority of o-FDCPO- over DCPO- in sensitivity for NIR biosensor applications was confirmed by comparative studies on two HNO probes, namely o-FDCPO-P and DCPO-P, which bear signaling units of o-FDCPO- and DCPO- , respectively. Moreover, o-FDCPO-P has been demonstrated to be a high-performance HNO probe with high selectivity, high sensitivity (detection limit: 50 nm), and a rapid response, together with a two-photon NIR-excitation imaging capability.

Abstract
Squaraine dyes are a class of organic dyes with strong and narrow absorption bands in the near-infrared. Despite high molar absorptivities and fluorescence quantum yields, these dyes have been less explored than other dye scaffolds due to their susceptibility to nucleophilic attack. Recent strategies in probe design including encapsulation, conjugation to biomolecules, and new synthetic modifications have seen squaraine dyes emerging into the forefront of biomedical imaging and other applications. Herein, we provide a concise overview of (1) the synthesis of symmetrical and unsymmetrical squaraine dyes, (2) the relationship between structure and photophysical properties of squaraine dyes, and (3) current applications of squaraine dyes in the literature. Given the recent successes at overcoming the limitations of squaraine dyes, they show high potential in biological imaging, in photodynamic and photothermal therapies, and as molecular sensors.

Abstract
We describe a novel green-emitting tetraphenylethylene-dicyanomethylene-4H-pyran (TPE-DCM) based fluorescent probe (TD-1). Conjugating TPE and DCM moieties allowed TD-1 to display high selectivity for thiophenol with excellent AIE properties in aqueous solution. Nevertheless, the poor water solubility of the hydrophobic structure resulted in a weak and unstable emission intensity. The non-covalent self-assembly of TD-1 with a TPE glycocluster (TPE2S) led to a largely improved water solubility producing a reliable and stable sensing system. The corresponding glyco-probe could sensitively detect exogenous thiophenol concentrations in PBS buffer or environmental water samples.

Abstract
We synthesized a new fluorescent probe 1O by attaching a diarylethene molecule to a functional group. The probe can be used to detect Al3+ and Zn2+ at the same time with high selectivity, and its detection limit is very low. When Al3+ was added, the fluorescence intensity was increased 310 folds, and was accompanied by a fluorescent color change from black to grass-green. Similarly, after the addition of Zn2+, the fluorescence intensity was enhanced 110 folds, with a concomitant color change from black to yellow-green. Moreover, based on the properties of 1O, we designed a logic circuit, and that also can be used for water sample testing.

Abstract
Fast, highly selective and sensitive thiophenol probes are highly desirable in the field of bioimaging and environmental monitoring. For that, based on the mechanism that thiophenol can effectively cleave the sulfonamide bond selectively, we herein report a dicyanoisophorone-based Red-emitting/NIR probe for thiophenol detection. This probe had some desirable properties such as rapid response, high selectivity and sensitivity, remarkable large Stokes shift (181 nm), Red-emitting/NIR fluorescence region and low LOD value (80 nM, according to 3σ/s). Moreover, this novel Red-emitting/NIR probe can potentially be applied to the detection of thiophenols in real water samples quantitatively and fluorescent imaging in living cells and zebrafishes.

Abstract
Based on an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) fluorophore, a novel fluorescent off-on probe for detection of thiophenols was designed and synthesized. This probe (λex = 401 nm, λem = 527 nm) displayed high specificity for sensing thiophenols over other biologically related species. Besides, this probe possessed capabilities of monitoring thiophenols with rapid response rate (3 min), a large Stokes shift (126 nm), and high sensitivity (2.7 nM). The sensing mechanism was considered to be that thiophenols triggered thiolysis of the probe and the ESIPT fluorophore was released, as confirmed by means of HPLC and HRMS. Most notably, this probe was successfully applied to monitor levels of thiophenols in realistic samples and MDA-MB-231 cells. Graphical abstract A novel phenothiazine-based fluorescent probe was developed for sensitively sensing thiophenols in both aqueous medium and living cells.

Abstract
A BODIPY disulfonate BODIPY-diONs with two-photon fluorescent turn-on effect was developed as fluorescence probe for selective detection of glutathione over cysteine and homocysteine. BODIPY-diONs is weakly fluorescent due to the 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl quencher group. When GSH was added, a SNAr substitution reaction was triggered. The red emission of the BODIPY fluorophore at 675 nm was switched on, with a 27-fold emission enhancement in fluorescence intensity. The color of the solution changed from blue to green together with fluorescence appeared within 5 s. The absorbance and emission maxima of the probe BODIPY-diONs were achieved at 650 nm and 675 nm, respectively (quantum yield: 0.11). Interestingly, under the sapphire pulsed laser's 800 nm irradiation, in presence of GSH, the two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) of probe BODIPY-diONs was turned on, affording an OFF-ON response signal and a strong emission band at 682 nm. Furthermore, for detection of GSH, the chemodosimeter BODIPY-diONs exhibits high sensitivity and excellent anti-interference with low detection limit of 0.17 μM, and it works effectively within a wide pH range. Furthermore, the imaging studies proved that the probe BODIPY-diONs is suitable for the detection of GSH in complete physiological media.

Abstract
A naphthalimide-based low-molecular-mass fluorophore (NA) was designed and synthesized by introducing an azetidine unit onto the aromatic ring of the compound as an electron-donating structure, and a hydrophilic (2-(2-aminoethyl-amino)ethanol) moiety into the "N-imide site" of the core structure. UV-vis absorption and fluorescence measurements revealed that the fluorophore is soluble in water and shows a fluorescent quantum yield of ∼20% and lifetime of ∼3.7 ns in the solvent within a wide pH range. Moreover, the fluorescence emission and anisotropy of the fluorophore as produced are both dependent upon the viscosity and polarity of the medium. Further studies demonstrated that NA can be used as a selective probe to monitor the aggregation of anionic surfactants owing to its accumulation onto the anionic surfaces of the aggregates as formed. Inspired by the discovery, NA was successfully applied for detection of cell membranes and E. coli via monitoring of their negatively charged surfaces, which is important for fast checking of biological contamination of water. Importantly, all the tests could be performed in a visualized manner. We believe that the new, low-molecular-mass fluorophore as created may find applications in chemical and biochemical sensing and imaging.
