Abstract
Given the important role of biothiols in various physiological processes, there is a need to develop novel fluorescent sensors for detecting them. Herein, a novel "on-off-on" fluorescent sensor (E)-N'-((7-(diethylamino)-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)methylene)-6-((quinolin-8-yloxy)methyl)picolinohydrazide (PQC) was synthesized and its absorbance and fluorescence properties were characterized. The sensor PQC could form a stable complex and showed a significant fluorescence quenching response to Cu2+ with a quenching efficiency of approximately 100%, and the PQC-Cu2+ complex showed a fluorescence enhancement response to GSH with a higher recovery rate of above 80% in a CH3OH/HEPES (9:1 v/v, pH=7.23) buffer system. Its detection limits were determined to be 0.17μM for Cu2+ and 0.20μM for GSH, and the binding stoichiometry of PQC-Cu2+ was determined to be 1: 1 by Job's plot method. Importantly, the sensor PQC can be used for filter paper strip tests and bioimaging in living cells.
