Abstract
Developing a novel strategy to improve the optical performances of fluorescent probes is a vital factor in elevating its practical application; viz., novel biocompatible fluorescent probes with excellent multifunctions exhibited unparalleled advantages in probing functions of intracellular molecules to elucidate intracellular events in living systems. Herein, we have successfully constructed a new strategy that aggregation and coordination synergistically induce (2-hydroxylphenyl-benzothiazole) HBT derivatives to form excimers with large red-shifted fluorescence and application for insight into stress-response zinc fluctuations in living systems. We have synthesized four HBT-based derivatives and deeply investigated the response mechanism by fluorescent spectral studies, demonstrating that probes 3 and 4 showcased large red shifts in emission wavelength due to J-aggregation. More interestingly, the fluorescence of probe 4 was significantly enhanced in the presence of a zinc ion, suggesting that zinc coordination synergistically induced J-aggregation. Probe 4 was successfully applied to image zinc fluctuations in different models of living systems, proving that this probe is a powerful tool to unveil the relationship between invasive stress and diseases by monitoring endogenous zinc fluctuations.

Abstract
Water, although an important part of everyday life, is acts as one of the most significant contaminants in various applications such as biomedical monitoring, chemical production, petroleum-based fuel and food processing. In fact, the presence of water in other solvents is a huge concern. For the quantification of trace water content, different methods such as Karl-Fischer, electrochemical, nuclear magnetic resonance, chromatography, and thermogravimetric analysis have been used. Although every technique has its own benefit, each one suffers from several drawbacks that include high detection costs, lengthy procedures and specialized operations. Nowadays, the development of fluorescence-based chemical probes has become an exciting area of research for the quick and accurate estimation of water content in organic solvents. A variety of chemical processes such as hydrolysis reaction, metal ions promoted oxidation reaction, suppression of the -C═N isomerization, protonation and deprotonation reactions, and molecular aggregation have been well researched in the last few years for the fluorescent detection of trace water. These chemical processes eventually lead to different photophysical events such as aggregation-induced emission (AIE), aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE), aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ), fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET), charge transfer, photo-induced electron transfer (PET), excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) that are responsible for the detection. This review presents a summary of the fluorescence-based chemosensors reported in recent years. The design of water sensors, sensing mechanisms and their potential applications are reviewed and discussed.

Abstract
Pyrrolidine (PyD) has an important impact on the environment and human health. However, there is currently no method for trace detection of PyD. Here, we successfully designed diaminomethylene-4H-pyran (1) as the first specific fluorescent probe for PyD. Only by adding PyD to probe 1, there is blue fluorescence at 455 nm, and the color of the solution changes from colorless to yellow. The detection limit is 1.12 × 10-6 M, and the response time is less than 5 min. Meanwhile, probe 1 can also sense the gaseous PyD and detect PyD in actual water samples. Moreover, due to the low biological toxicity, probe 1 can detect the exogenous PyD in zebrafish. The preliminary mechanism shows that probe 1 and PyD undergo a combination-type chemical reaction to generate a new substance 1-PyD. Therefore, the 100% atom utilization reaction enables probe 1 to exhibit specific adsorption and removal of PyD.

Abstract
Organic fluorescent materials (OFMs) play a crucial role in the development of biosensors, enabling the extraction of biochemical information within cells and organisms, extending to the human body. Concurrently, OFM biosensors contribute significantly to the progress of modern medical and biological research. However, the practical applications of OFM biosensors face challenges, including issues related to low resolution, dispersivity, and stability. To overcome these challenges, scientists have introduced interactive elements to enhance the order of OFMs. Highly-ordered assembled OFMs represent a novel material type applied to biosensors. In comparison to conventional fluorescent materials, highly-ordered assembled OFMs typically exhibit robust anti-diffusion properties, high imaging contrast, and excellent stability. This approach has emerged as a promising method for effectively tracking bio-signals, particularly in the non-invasive monitoring of chronic diseases. This review introduces several highly-ordered assembled OFMs used in biosensors and also discusses various interactions that are responsible for their assembly, such as hydrogen bonding, π-π interaction, dipole-dipole interaction, and ion electrostatic interaction. Furthermore, it delves into the various applications of these biosensors while addressing the drawbacks that currently limit their commercial application. This review aims to provide a theoretical foundation for designing high-performance, highly-ordered assembled OFM biosensors suitable for practical applications. Additionally, it sheds light on the evolving trends in OFM biosensors and their application fields, offering valuable insights into the future of this dynamic research area.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is not only a well-established toxic gas but also an important small molecule bioregulator in all kingdoms of life. In contemporary biology, H2S is often classified as a "gasotransmitter," meaning that it is an endogenously produced membrane permeable gas that carries out essential cellular processes. Fluorescent probes for H2S and related reactive sulfur species (RSS) detection provide an important cornerstone for investigating the multifaceted roles of these important small molecules in complex biological systems. A now common approach to develop such tools is to develop "activity-based probes" that couple a specific H2S-mediated chemical reaction to a fluorescent output. This Review covers the different types of such probes and also highlights the chemical mechanisms by which each probe type is activated by specific RSS. Common examples include reduction of oxidized nitrogen motifs, disulfide exchange, electrophilic reactions, metal precipitation, and metal coordination. In addition, we also outline complementary activity-based probes for imaging reductant-labile and sulfane sulfur species, including persulfides and polysulfides. For probes highlighted in this Review, we focus on small molecule systems with demonstrated compatibility in cellular systems or related applications. Building from breadth of reported activity-based strategies and application, we also highlight key unmet challenges and future opportunities for advancing activity-based probes for H2S and related RSS.

Abstract
Cysteine is an important biological thiol and is closely related to cancer. It remains a challenge to develop a probe that can provide long-term fluorescence detection and imaging of Cys in cells as well as in living organisms. Here, a solid-state fluorophore HTPQ is combined with an acrylate group to construct a solid-state fluorescent probe HTPQC for Cys recognition. The fluorescence of the probe is quenched when the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process is turned on and the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process is turned off. In the presence of Cys, an obvious solid-state fluorescence signal can be observed. The double quenching mechanism makes the probe HTPQC have the advantages of high sensitivity, good selectivity, and high contrast of biological imaging. Due to low cytotoxicity, the probe HTPQC can be used to detect exogenous and endogenous Cys in living cells and is capable of imaging over long periods of time. By making full use of long wavelengths, the probe can be applied for the detection of Cys levels in tumor mice and equipped with the ability to conduct long-term imaging in vivo.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously generated gaseous signaling molecule and is known to be involved in the occurrence and development of inflammation. To better understand its physiological and pathological process of inflammation, reliable tools for H2S detection in living inflammatory models are desired. Although a number of fluorescent sensors have been reported for H2S detection and imaging, water-soluble and biocompatibility nanosensors are more useful for imaging in vivo. Herein, we developed a novel biological imaging nanosensor, XNP1, for inflammation-targeted imaging of H2S. XNP1 was obtained by self-assembly of amphiphilic XNP1, which was constructed by the condensation reaction of the hydrophobic, H2S response and deep red-emitting fluorophore with hydrophilic biopolymer glycol chitosan (GC). Without H2S, XNP1 showed very low background fluorescence, while a significant enhancement in the fluorescence intensity of XNP1 was observed in the presence of H2S, resulting in a high sensitivity toward H2S in aqueous solution with a practical detection limit as low as 32.3 nM, which could be meet the detection of H2S in vivo. XNP1 also has a good linear response concentration range (0-1 μM) toward H2S with high selectivity over other competing species. These characteristics facilitate direct H2S detection of the complex living inflammatory cells and drug-induced inflammatory mice, demonstrating its practical application in biosystems.

Abstract
The common fluorescent conjugated materials present weak or quenching luminescent phenomena in the solid or aggregate state (ACQ), which limits their applications in medicine and biology. In the last two decades, certain materials, named aggregation-induced emission (AIE) fluorescent materials, have exhibited strong luminescent properties in the aggregate state, which can overcome the ACQ phenomenon. Due to their intrinsic properties, the AIE materials have been successfully used in biolabeling, where they can not only detect the species of ions and their concentrations in organisms, but can also monitor the organisms' physiological activity. In addition, these kinds of materials often present non-biological toxicity. Thus, AIE materials have become some of the most popular biofluorescent probe materials and are attracting more and more attention. This field is still in its early infancy, and several open challenges urgently need to be addressed, such as the materials' biocompatibility, metabolism, and so on. Designing a high-performance AIE material for biofluorescent probes is still challenging. In this review, based on the molecular design concept, various AIE materials with functional groups in the biofluorescent probes are introduced, including tetrastyrene materials, distilbene anthracene materials, triphenylamine materials, and hexaphenylsilole materials. In addition, according to the molecular system design strategy, the donor-acceptor (D-A) system and hydrogen-bonding AIE materials used as biofluorescent probes are reviewed. Finally, the biofluorescent probe design concept and potential evolution trends are discussed. The final goal is to outline a theoretical scaffold for the design of high-performance AIE biofluorescent probes that can at the same time further the development of the applications of AIE-based biofluorescent probes.

Abstract
Excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) is of great importance due to the large Stokes shift emission that can be observed in some ESIPT molecules. Although steady-state spectroscopies have been employed to study the properties of some ESIPT molecules, their excited-state dynamics have not been examined directly with time-resolved spectroscopy methods yet for a number of systems. Here, an in-depth investigation of the solvent effects on the excited-state dynamics of two prototypical ESIPT molecules, 2-(2'-hydroxyphenyl)-benzoxazole (HBO) and 2-(2'-hydroxynaphthalenyl)-benzoxazole (NAP), have been accomplished by using femtosecond time-resolved fluorescence and transient absorption spectroscopies. Solvent effects affect the excited-state dynamics of HBO more significantly than that of NAP. Particularly in the presence of water, the photodynamics pathways of HBO are changed, while only small changes can be found in NAP. An ultrafast ESIPT process that occurs within our instrumental response is observed for HBO, and this is followed by an isomerization process in ACN solution. However, in aqueous solution, the obtained syn-keto* after ESIPT can be solvated by water in about 3.0 ps, and the isomerization process is totally inhibited for HBO. The mechanism of NAP is different from HBO and is determined to be a two-step excited-state proton transfer process. Upon photoexcitation, NAP is deprotonated first in the excited state to generate the anion*, which can transfer to the syn-keto* form followed by an isomerization process.

Abstract
It is crucial to monitor hydrogen sulfide (H2S) because H2S plays a vital role in the regulation of many physiology and pathology processes. Many evidences indicate that endogenous H2S is closely associated with many diseases such as inflammation and cancers. Herein, we reported a novel fluorescent probe BTDI to monitor the fluctuation of H2S based on the excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) mechanism both ex vivo and in vivo. The selectivity of BTDI for H2S is significantly higher than that for biothiols and other potential anions. After the probe responded to H2S, the nucleophilic addition reaction of the H2S with probe BTDI resulted the shifting of maximum emission peak from 630 nm to 542 nm and the fluorescent signals change from red to green emission along with a large Stokes shift (240 nm). Moreover, BTDI can be successfully applied to detect extracellular and endogenous H2S in living cells through fluorescent cell-imaging, which provides a promising tool for the specific recognition of H2S in complex biological systems.

Abstract
A probe with an isothiocyanate group was synthesized and evaluated for its H2S sensing ability. Upon addition of H2S, the probe exhibited ratiometric properties during absorption with a red-shift. The probe exhibited fluorescent off-on responses towards H2S via the ESIPT process, due to the conversion of isocyanate into amine. UV-vis, fluorescence, and 1H NMR spectroscopic analyses were performed to investigate the sensing mechanism. The probe has a large Stokes shift, short response time, and low detection limit. It can be used to estimate H2S levels within the range of 0-36 nM. The practical applicability of the probe was demonstrated using water samples and living cells.

Detecting and imaging intracellular hypochlorous acid (HClO) is of great importance owning to its prominent role in numerous pathological and physiological processes. In this contribution, a novel AIE-based fluorescent chemosensor has been developed by employing a benzothiazole derivative. The synthesized probe displayed remarkable ratiometric fluorescent response to HClO with a large emission shift (139 nm), resulting in naked-eye fluorescence changes from red to blue. Under the optimal conditions, this probe was capable of quantitatively detecting HClO within 10 s, and possessed good sensitivity and high selectivity toward HClO over other biologically relevant species. Moreover, it has been successfully utilized to image the exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells through dual channels, and conveniently detect hypochlorous acid solution on test strips with better accuracy, demonstrating its potential for monitoring HClO in biological and environment fields.

Abstract
The endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) can be adopted as an indicator for the indirect detection of sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB), which considered to be closely related to pipeline corrosion and human intestinal health. Unfortunately, the in-situ detection of endogenous H2S from SRB in the complex culture medium still faces huge challenges. Besides nonspecific adsorption from the culture medium of SRB, the problem of electrode passivation by produced elemental sulfur during electrochemical detection processes of H2S cannot be ignored. To address these challenges, herein a synergistic sensing platform based on self-cleaning electrode interface and indirect detection strategy (specific H2S-induced chemical reaction) is developed. This indirect sensing strategy-assisted self-cleaning electrochemical platform showed a relatively good linear response toward H2S in the range of 0.5 - 5 μM, and the corresponding limit of detection (LOD) was calculated to be 5.09 nM. More importantly, the satisfactory self-cleaning electrode interface in indirect detection system (with only a 4.10% decrease in signal over 50 electrochemical repeated cycles) showed the electrode surface not being disturbed by elemental sulfur. Furthermore, this good selectivity of the indirect detection strategy in combination with the reproducibility, stability, and antifouling activity of the self-cleaning interface, enabled a synergistic sensing platform to detect H2S directly in the complex culture medium of SRB without time-consuming sample pretreatments. Moreover, this proposed construction strategy of synergetic sensing platform could be explored to other endogenous molecules in complex environment based on different antifouling materials and specific reactions.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), one of redox-active sulfur species, is known as a signaling molecule and an antioxidant in biological tissues to maintain cellular functions. The development of selective and sensitive H2S detection is important to understand the role of H2S in vivo. Herein, a new two-photon probe NNE was developed to detect hydrogen sulfide using 6-acetyl-N-methyl-2-naphthylamine with an attachment of 7-nitrobenzo-oxadiazole. The probe NNE exhibits high selectivity towards hydrogen sulfide over other anions. Nucleophilic substitution of H2S leads to a turn-on response with 28-fold enhancement in quantum yield (from 0.004 to 0.117). NNE shows a high sensitivity towards hydrogen sulfide with an extremely low detection limit at 6.8 nM. Furthermore, the probe NNE exhibits two-photon excited fluorescence, making it a suitable probe for monitoring H2S distribution in live cells and tissues without background fluorescence interference.

Abstract
Rationally developing an intelligent tool for high-contrast fluorescence imaging of latent fingerprints (LFPs) is gaining much concern in many applications such as medical diagnostics and forensic investigations. Herein, the off-on fluorescent polymer micelles (PMs) have been rationally designed and synthesized for high-contrast fluorescence imaging of LFPs through the cross-linking reaction of hydrazine (N2H4) and aldehyde group of polymer. Excitingly, the cross-linking (N2H4) induced emission of PMs has the property of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) and excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT), which could effectively address the notorious aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effects of conventional organic dyes. In addition, the cross-linking strategy can not only improve structural stability of PMs but also enhance its fluorescence brightness. The experiment results demonstrated that PMs showed high water dispersibility (100% aqueous solution), high selectivity, large Stokes shift (∼150 nm), good photostability, and excellent long-term stability. Because of the hydrophobic interaction between the PMs and fingerprint components, the PMs preferentially adhered onto the ridges of fingerprint, and then cross-linking (N2H4) induced emission properties endowed the PMs for high-contrast imaging of LFPs in different substrates, especially the levels 1-3 details of LFPs. We expect that this strategy will provide vital support for LFPs technology.

Abstract
Sulfur is an element that is indispensable throughout the growth of plants. In plant cells, reactive sulfur species (RSS) play a vital role in maintaining cellular redox homeostasis and signal transduction. There is demand accordingly for a simple, highly selective, and sensitive method of RSS detection and imaging for monitoring dynamic changes and clarifying the biological functions of RSS in plant systems. Fluorescent analysis based on organic small-molecule fluorescent probes is an effective and specific approach to tracking plant RSS characteristics. This perspective summarizes the recent progress regarding organic small-molecule fluorescent probes for RSS monitoring, including small-molecule biological thiols, hydrogen sulfide, and sulfane sulfurs, in plants; it also discusses their response mechanism toward RSS and their imaging applications in plants across the agricultural chemistry field.

Abstract
Multi-functional materials have received wide attention due to their potential applications in various fields; therefore, developing a simple and easy strategy for the preparation of multi-functional materials is an interesting issue. In this work, a novel supramolecular gel, TP-QG, has been successfully constructed via the assembly of a simple methoxyl-pillar[5]arene host (TP) and a tripodal (tri-pyridine-4-yl)-amido-benzene guest (Q). Interestingly, TP-QG could act as a multi-functional material and showed strong fluorescence, good self-healing, host-guest stimuli-responsiveness and conductive properties. Due to these properties, TP-QG shows a fascinating application prospect. For instance, TP-QG could exhibit ultrasensitive fluorescence response for Fe3+ and F- in water via the fluorescence "ON-OFF-ON" pathway; the lowest detection limit (LOD) of TP-QG for Fe3+ was 2.32 × 10-10 M and the LOD of TP-QG-Fe for F- was 4.30 × 10-8 M. These properties permit TP-QG to act as not only a Fe3+ and F- sensor, but also an "ON-OFF-ON" fluorescence display material and an efficient logic gate. Meanwhile, the xerogel of TP-QG could remove Fe3+ from water, and the adsorption ratio was 98.68%; the xerogel of TP-QG-Fe could also remove F- from water; the removal ratio was about 87.92%. This work provides a feasible way to construct multi-functional smart materials by host-guest assembly.

Abstract
A solvent-assisted ESIPT fluorescent dye was synthesized and used as a probe (2-PPN) for the detection of F-/Ag+ and high-resolution imaging of the cilia in live cells. The developed ESIPT fluorophore exhibited strong tautomeric fluorescence in protic solvents and normal emission in aprotic solvents, which is a significant departure from that of conventional intramolecular ESIPT compounds. The H-binding interaction of F- and the chelation of Ag+ with the ESIPT module of 2-PPN resulted in significant tautomeric emission quenching. From this basis, the 2-PPN-based assays for the detection of F- and Ag+ were established. The detection limit for F- and Ag+ sensing is 2.4 nM and 1.5 nM, respectively. The selective experimental results showed that no tautomeric fluorescence change of 2-PPN could be observed in the presence of the other inorganic ions in the same medium, revealing high selectivity of 2-PPN to F- and Ag+. Furthermore, MTT assay experiments proved that the probe 2-PPN exhibited low cytotoxicity and good cell membrane permeability. The probe was also further successfully utilized to image the cilia in vitro MCF7 cells, displaying its high-resolution imaging performance.Graphical abstract.

Abstract
A ratiometric and selective hydrogen sulfide (H2S) detection probe was proposed based on the pyrene-DPA–Cd2+ complex through the metal ion displacement approach (MDA) mechanism. While most MDA-based fluorescence probes with paramagnetic Cu2+ have focused on the development of a simple turn-on sensor using the broad spectral range of fluorescence enhancement, this ratiometric probe exhibited unchanged monomer emission as a built-in internal reference with an increase in excimer emission with added H2S. The demonstrated probe showed a rapid response (within 1 min) and a high sensitivity, with 70 nM as the limit of detection. The selectivity for H2S over cysteine, homocysteine and glutathione was confirmed, and reliable fluorescence enhancement, which could be monitored by the naked eye, was observed upon irradiation with handheld UV light. In addition, this detection system was successfully applied to detect H2S in human serum without interference from biological molecules. The pyrene-DPA–Cd2+ complex is demonstrated as a ratiometric fluorescence probe for selective hydrogen sulfide detection in serum based on a metal displacement approach.![]()

Abstract
It is of great significance for biological research to develop efficient detection methods of hydrogen sulfide (H2S). When DFAN reacts with H2S, 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether group acting as an electron acceptor generates a hydroxyl-substituted 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether group, resulting in the disappearance of photoinduced electron transfer (PET), and the new formed DFAH can be observed, while being accompanied by a significant fluorescence. In the present study, the PET sensing mechanism of probe DFAN and the excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) process of DFAH have been explored in detail based on the density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) methods. Our theoretical results show that the fluorescence quenching of DFAN is caused by the PET mechanism, and the result of ESIPT mechanism is not due to the large Stokes shift fluorescence emission of DFAH. We also optimized the geometric structure of the transition state of DFAH. The frontier molecular orbitals and potential barrier show that the ESIPT process does not easy occur easily for DFAH. The enol structure of DFAH is more stable than that of the keto structure. The absence of the PET process resulted in the enol structure emitting strong fluorescence, which is consistent with the single fluorescence in the experiment. Above all, our calculations are sufficient to verify the sensing mechanism of H2S using DFAN.

Abstract
An electrochemical sensor was proposed for the detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) at room temperature, by using electroactive Cu2O nanocubes (NCs) as an electrochemical beacon. Electroactive Cu2O NCs were synthesized on the surface of reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/Fe3O4 nanosheets (NSs) due to the good electronic conductivity and well-responded magnetic responses. The fabricated rGO/Fe3O4/Cu2O NSs not only showed electrochemical oxidization peak at -0.1 V from Cu2O NCs, and could be served as sensitive electrochemical beacon for the simple modification on magnetic electrodes in the applications. The unique redox reaction between Cu2O NCs and H2S enabled the transformation of Cu2O NCs to Cu9S8 NCs, resulting in decreased electroxidation responses at -0.1 V. The constructed electrochemical platform had a limit of detection (LOD) of 230 pM and a detection range of 500 pM-100 μM. The simple and cheap electrochemical sensor developed in this paper showed potential application for H2S detection.

Abstract
Two-photon fluorescence imaging technology has the advantages of high light stability, little light damage, and high spatiotemporal resolution, which make it a powerful biological analysis method. However, due to the high concentration or aggregation state of traditional organic light-emitting molecules, the fluorescence intensity is easily reduced or disappears completely, and is not conducive to optimal application. The concept of aggregation-induced emission (AIE) provides a solution to the problem of aggregation-induced luminescence quenching (ACQ), and realizes the high fluorescence quantum yield of luminescent molecules in the aggregation state. In addition, two-photon absorption properties can readily be improved just by increasing the loading content of AIE fluorogen (AIEgen). Therefore, the design and preparation of two-photon fluorescence probes based on AIEgen to achieve high-efficiency fluorescence imaging in vitro/in vivo has become a major research hotspot. This review aims to summarize representative two-photon AIEgens based on triphenylamine, tetraphenylethene, quinoline, naphthalene and other new structures from the past five years, and discuss their great potential in bioimaging applications.

Abstract
Fluorescence imaging has been widely used as a powerful tool for in situ and real-time visualization of important analytes and biological events in live samples with remarkably high selectivity, sensitivity, and spatial resolution. Compared with one-photon fluorescence imaging, two-photon fluorescence imaging exhibits predominant advantages of minimal photodamage to samples, deep tissue penetration, and outstanding resolution. Recently, the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials have become a preferred choice in two-photon fluorescence biological imaging because of its unique bright fluorescence in solid and aggregate states and strong resistance to photobleaching. In this review, we will exclusively summarize the applications of AIE-active materials in two-photon fluorescence imaging with some representative examples from four aspects: fluorescence detection, in vitro cell imaging, ex vivo tissue imaging, and in vivo vascular imaging. In addition, the current challenges and future development directions of AIE-active materials for two-photon bioimaging are briefly discussed.

Abstract
The topics of human health and disease are always the focus of much attention. Hydrogen sulfide (H2 S), as a double-edged sword, plays an important role in biological systems. Studies have revealed that endogenous H2 S is important to maintain normal physiological functions. Conversely, abnormal levels of H2 S may contribute to various diseases. Due to the importance of H2 S in physiology and pathology, research into the effects of H2 S has been active in recent years. Fluorescent probes with red/near-infrared (NIR) emissions (620-900 nm) are more suitable for imaging applications in vivo, because of their negligible photodamage, deep tissue penetration, and maximum lack of interference from background autofluorescence. H2 S, an 'evil and positive' molecule, is not only toxic, but also produces significant effects; a 'greedy' molecule, is not only a strong nucleophile under physiological conditions, but also undergoes a continuous double nucleophilic reaction. Therefore, in this tutorial review, we will highlight recent advances made since 2015 in the development and application of red/NIR fluorescent probes based on nucleophilic reactions of H2 S.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive optical materials attract lots of attention due to their broad applications. Herein, a novel smart stimuli-responsive supramolecular polymer was successfully constructed using a simple tripodal quaternary ammonium-based gelator (TH). The TH self-assembles into a supramolecular polymer hydrogel (TH-G) and shows aggregation-induced emission (AIE) properties. Interestingly, the transparency and fluorescence of the TH-G xerogel film (TH-GF) could be reversibly regulated by use of triethylamine (TEA) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) vapor. When alternately fumed with TEA and HCl vapor, the optical transmittance of the TH-GF was changed from 8.9% to 92.7%. Meanwhile, the fluorescence of the TH-G shows an "ON/OFF" switch. The reversible switching of the transparency and the fluorescence of the TH-GF is attributed to the assembly and disassembly of the supramolecular polymer TH-G. Based on these stimuli-response properties, the TH-GF could act as an optical material and shows potential applications as smart windows or fluorescent display material controlled by TEA and HCl vapor.

Abstract
A novel chemosensor 1 based on a naphthol-bisthiazolopyridine hybrid was synthesized and characterized. Among the various screened cations and anions, chemosensor 1 selectively recognized Ag+ and CN- ions by relying on the color change and distinct absorption and emission changes. Moreover, the probe 1·Ag+ was well operable for the selective monitoring of S2-, HS- and H2S as evidenced by the different color and optical changes. The selective detection of all the anions was simply based on the breakage of the intramolecular hydrogen bonding of 1, followed by the protonation or deprotonation mechanism. In general, chemosensor 1 is a promising indicator in terms of its ease-of-use, selectivity, sensitivity, and rapid response (<1 s). Moreover, the visual detection and concentration determination of these analytes by solution or solid kits are the advantages for the practical applications of this sensor.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide shows great importance in various physiological and biochemical processes. The development of fluorescence probes for facile and efficient detection of H2S has attracted increasing attention of researchers. Herein, we synthesized two fluorescence probes based on simple naphthalene structure for detection of H2S. Upon reaction with H2S, the probe DN-DM exhibited a red fluorescence emission with large Stokes shift. The probe showed high sensitivity, pH insensitivity and good selectivity for H2S over other analytes including common biothiols. The detection mechanism was based on the thiolysis of the dinitrophenyl ether moiety, which was confirmed by 1H NMR spectral analysis. The DFT calculation was also performed for a deeper understanding of the photophysical properties. In addition, these probes showed good cell-membrane permeability and could be utilized for detection of H2S in living cells.

Abstract
In situ detection of certain specific enzyme activities in cells is deeply attached to tumor diagnosis. Conventional enzyme-responsive fluorescent probes have difficulty detecting targeted enzymes in situ in cells due to the low detection accuracy caused by the spread of fluorescence probes. In order to solve this problem, we have designed and synthesized an enzyme-responsive, water-soluble fluorescent probe with AIE characteristics, which could aggregate and precipitate to produce in situ fluorescence when reacting with the targeted enzyme in cells. The AIE fluorophore (TPEQH) was utilized to design the enzyme-responsive, fluorescent probe (TPEQHA) by introducing a phosphate group on to it, which could be specifically decomposed by the targeted enzyme, namely alkaline phosphatase (ALP). In tumor cells, TPEQH was highly produced due to the interaction of phosphate on the TPEQHA and the overexpressed ALP. Water-insoluble TPEQH then precipitated and release fluorescence in situ, thereby successfully detecting the ALP. Furthermore, the expression level of ALP could be determined by the fluorescence intensity of TPEQH with higher accuracy due to the inhibition of TPEQH leak, which demonstrated a potential application of in suit ALP detection in both clinical diagnosis and scientific research of tumor.

Abstract
Understanding the pathological process of biological systems can greatly improve the prevention and treatment of diseases. The study of pathological processes has now reached the molecular level, and molecular fluorescent probes have become a powerful tool. Chromene, also known as benzo-pyran molecule, is a structural element of natural products with good biological compatibility and was developed as a fluorescent probe. The thiol-chromene "click" nucleophilic pyran ring-opening reaction allows the quick detection of thiol. In this work, the chromene alcohol can function as an efficient self-immolative spacer, which covalently links NIR fluorophore via a carbonyl ester. Due to its favorable characteristics and superior applicability, the self-immolative amplifier NIR-HMPC achieves the specific, rapid, sensitive, NIR fluorescent detection of thiols. Furthermore, the indoles iodized salt in the system can specifically target thiols in mitochondria. Thus, this probe was used to visualize the fluctuations of thiols during oxidative stress and cell apoptosis, cerebral ischemia reperfusion, demonstrating that it is valuable for elucidating pathophysiology process in living organism. This discovery provides an effective means for studying the pathological process of thiol related diseases.
