Abstract
As a reactive sulfur species, sulfur dioxide (SO2) and its derivatives play crucial role in various physiological processes, which can maintain redox homeostasis at normal levels and lead to the occurrence of many diseases at abnormal levels. So, the development of a suitable fluorescent probe is a crucial step in advancing our understanding of the role of SO2 derivatives in living organisms. Herein, we developed a near-infrared fluorescent probe (SP) based on the ICT mechanism to monitor SO2 derivatives in living organisms in a ratiometric manner. The probe SP exhibited excellent selectivity, good sensitivity, fast response rate (within 50 s), and low detection limit (1.79 µM). In addition, the cell experiment results suggested that the SP has been successfully employed for the real-time monitoring of endogenous and exogenous SO2 derivatives with negligible cytotoxicity. Moreover, SP was effective in detecting SO2 derivatives in mice.
