Popis: To monitor delicate changes of biological HOCl in vivo, a new probe (OH-substituted coumarin-hemicyanine, probe 2) was synthesized for NIR and ratiometric HOCl detection. Selectivity studies indicated that the electron-donating group (OH) substituted on the indolium moiety enhanced the selectivity to detect HOCl. With HOCl, the probe showed a ratiometric fluorescence (I500/I650) with a low detection limit (49.1 nM) and a rapid response (within 2 min). In addition, probe 2 was successfully applied to visualize exogenous and endogenous HOCl in living cells and animals and exhibited a perfect mitochondria target ability. This probe has been further studied as a potential and powerful tool to probe HOCl in arthritis models.
