Abstract

Oxidative stress is a trigger for many diseases and occurs with the unstable hypochlorite (ClO-), known as one of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in organisms. Then, HOCI is acknowledged as an oxidizing species that eliminates a variety of environmental pollutants. Hence, the development of novel methodologies for the selective and precise identification of HOCl/ ClO- is considered to be of utmost importance. In this study, the design, characterization, and applications of a fluorene-based fluorescent probe (FHBP) dependent on the ESIPT mechanism with a "turn-on" response for the sensitive/selective determination of ClO- against other competing samples were reported. The experimental results indicated that the detection limit for ClO-could be quantitatively determined by the probe to be 8.2 × 10-7M. The binding constant of the probe FHBP with ClO- was computed as 9.75 × 103M-1. In addition, the response time of FHBP was appointed to be 30s, indicating a rapid reaction with ClO-. It has also been demonstrated that this probe can be successfully used for the detection of ClO- on filter papers, TLC sheets, cotton swabs, and real samples.
