Review Description

A simple and efficient 1,8-naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe ( EHN ) was designed and synthesized, in which 1,8-naphthalimide was employed as a fluorophore and the nucleophilic addition site Se-N bond of ebselen as the recognition site of H 2 S. The results of the fluorescence recognition for hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) show that the Se-N bond of ebselen can respond to H 2 S selectively based on intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) mechanism. EHN has good fluorescence properties: large Stokes shift (106 nm) and remarkable stability at wide pH range (4 ∼ 10). EHN exhibits low LOD (0.135 μM) and fast response (within 100 s). Particularly, it has low cytotoxicity, good biocompatibility and behaves a “turn-on” effect on H 2 S. Furthermore, EHN can be used to image exogenous H 2 S in living cells and detect H 2 S in real water samples, suggesting its potential application in liveness detection and environmental protection.
