Article Abstract

Hypochlorite, as an important reactive oxygen species (ROS), plays a vital role in many physiological and pathological processes, but an excess concentration of hypochlorite (ClO) may become toxic to humans and cause disease. Hence, the selective and rapid detection of hypochlorite (ClO) is necessary for human safety. Here, we report a novel near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence "turn-on" and highly selective benzophenoxazinium chloride-based fluorescent probe, (benzophenoxazinium dihydroxy benzaldehyde), for hypochlorite detection. Due to hypochlorite-induced vicinal diol oxidation to the corresponding ortho benzoquinone derivative, the photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process, which was operating from vicinal diol to the benzophenoxazinium chloride receptor moiety, was suddenly inhibited, as a result of which strong NIR fluorescence "turn-on" emission was observed. The detection limit of was found to be 2.39 × 10 M, or 0.23 nM. was successfully applied for exogenous and endogenous hypochlorite detection in live MDA-MB 231 cells.

A hydrophilic phenothiazine-based fluorescent probe (PTZMN) was developed for the selective and sensitive detection of hypochlorite (ClO) in pure water. Upon ClO stimulation, PTZMN exhibited a distinct colorimetric shift and a "turn-on" fluorescence response at 496 nm, with a low detection limit of 5.2 × 10 mol/L and excellent linearity (R = 0.

With the increasing emphasis on environmental safety, food inspection, and plant physiological functions, the development of high-performance fluorescent probes capable of highly sensitive, specific, rapid, and visual detection of target analytes has become a focal point in current research. Hemicyanine groups are widely utilized in the design of organic small-molecule fluorophores due to their low cost, structural stability, and ease of chemical modification. Through simple structural adjustments, the photoluminescent properties of hemicyanine-based fluorophores can be significantly enhanced, enabling strong signal output and maintaining stable fluorescence intensity across various solvents and pH conditions-features that make them particularly suitable for complex biological and chemical environments.

Sulfite (HSO) and hypochlorous acid (HClO) serve as essential food additives and key raw materials in bleaching agents. However, excessive consumption of these compounds may disrupt cellular redox homeostasis, leading to a series of adverse physical effects. Therefore, the development of reliable analytical methods to detect HSO and HClO levels in food products is of significant importance.

The simultaneous monitoring of hypochlorous acid (HClO) and pH dynamics is crucial for deciphering their synergistic roles in oxidative stress-related pathologies and environmental processes, yet remains technically challenging due to spectral interference and divergent response mechanisms in existing probes. Herein, we present RN-HP, a rationally engineered fluorescent probe capable of detecting HClO and pH through dual independent emission channels. RN-HP exhibited significantly enhanced fluorescence at 577 nm in the presence of HOCl, demonstrating good selectivity and high sensitivity (linear range: 0.
