Popis: Fluorometric analysis of borohydride (BH4–) species by the reduction of arylaldehydes to the corresponding arylmethanols was investigated. 9-Anthracenecarboxaldehyde (9-AA) exhibited pronounced ratiometric fluorescence signaling behavior toward borohydride in alkaline aqueous media. The borohydride-selective signaling of 9-AA was unaffected by the presence of commonly encountered metal ions and anions. 1-Pyrenecarboxaldehyde (1-PA) also showed comparable borohydride signaling behavior. The detection limit was found to be 7.4 μM (0.11 ppm) for 9-AA and 15.7 μM (0.23 ppm) for 1-PA. The utility of the probe with μPAD as a convenient tool for the determination of borohydrides was demonstrated.
