Probe MCQ-DNBS was constructed by masking the OH group in MCQ with a common sensing unit, 2,4-dinitrobezensulfonate group(DNBS) for biothiols. Due to the photo-induced electron transfer(PET) process between MCQ and DNBS, this probe was weekly fluorescent. Upon the addition of biothiols(Cys, Hcy and GSH), this probe emitted a strong red fluorescence(λ_(em max)=613 nm) with a large Stokes shift(115 nm). In addition,fluorescence imaging of biothiols in living cells was successfully realized using MCQ-DNBS as a detector.展开更多

The introduction of C= N-N = C moiety in these SSB dyes largely extend the conjugation system and push their emission to yellow to red spectral region. These SSB dyes were negligibly fluorescent in dilute THF solution. In THF/water mixtures with high water fractions, they displayed strong yellow to red fluorescence(up to 617nm) and large Stokes shifts(up to 152 nm). Single crystal analysis on EBP showed the longer emission of in aggregated state was attributed to the molecular packing effect as compared with that in dilute solution. The bio-imaging application indicated EBP could specifically accumulate in lipid droplets in living cells.展开更多
