Abstract

Due to the highly significant biological activity of hypochlorous acid, the monitoring of its concentration in vivo has received extensive attention. In this work, a photoinduced electron transfer (PeT) based benzo-bodipy fluorescent probe BBy-T has been developed for the rapid, sensitive, and selective detection of HClO in an aqueous solution. Based on the HClO-specific oxidation reaction, BBy-T exhibited a distinct fluorescence turn-on response to HClO with a remarkable Stokes shift (84 nm), immediate response (less than 20 s), and low detection limit (13.7 nM). In addition, the bioimaging results indicated that the probe BBy-T could be applied to real-time fluorescence imaging of living HeLa cells as well as living zebrafish.
