A novel dual-emission responsive near-infrared fluorescent probe (2-OH-TCF-NBD) for the detection and discrimination of Cys/Hcy, GSH/H2S was developed on the basis of the conjugation of a tricyanofuran-based fluorophore (2-OH-TCF) and 4-chloro-7-nitrobenzofurazan (NBD-Cl). When the probe was added to the Cys/Hcy solution, it resulted in significant fluorescence enhancement at both 527 and 630 nm, while GSH/H2S induced major fluorescence emission only at 630 nm. The detection limits for Cys, Hcy, GSH, and H2S were determined to be 0.029, 0.020, 0.29, and 0.20 μM, respectively. Furthermore, the probe demonstrated some merits including easy preparation, rapid response time, and good anti-interference ability. The possible response mechanism was also proposed and validated by HPLC analysis of the reaction process. Therefore, the probe can be a potential tool for discriminating the detection of Cys/Hcy and GSH/H2S under physiological conditions.
