Abstract
Compounds with a nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) skeleton exhibit prominent useful properties including environmental sensitivity, high reactivity toward amines and biothiols (including H2S) accompanied by distinct colorimetric and fluorescent changes, fluorescence-quenching ability, and small size, all of which facilitate biomolecular sensing and self-assembly. Amines are important biological nucleophiles, and the unique activity of NBD ethers with amines has allowed for site-specific protein labelling and for the detection of enzyme activities. Both H2S and biothiols are involved in a wide range of physiological processes in mammals, and misregulation of these small molecules is associated with numerous diseases including cancers. In this review, we focus on NBD-based synthetic probes as advanced chemical tools for biomolecular sensing. Specifically, we discuss the sensing mechanisms and selectivity of the probes, the design strategies for multi-reactable multi-quenching probes, and the associated biological applications of these important constructs. We also highlight self-assembled NBD-based probes and outline future directions for NBD-based chemosensors. We hope that this comprehensive review will facilitate the development of future probes for investigating and understanding different biological processes and aid the development of potential theranostic agents.

Abstract
Three 5H-benzo[a]phenoxazin-5-one-based (benzoresorufin and nile-red) Cysteine (Cys) detection probes have been comparatively designed and synthesized in this paper. The optical experiments exhibit probe 1b with a crotonoyl group has no response toward Cys; while probes 1a and 1c have the same reaction site (acryloyl group), their optical responses to Cys are quite different. The benzoresorufin-based-probe 1a shows a turn-on fluorescence response (118-fold) to Cys at 631 nm and affords a very low detection limit (DL = 19.8 nM). Compared with probe 1a, the nile-red-based probe 1c displays gradually diminishing fluorescence intensity with increased Cys concentration at 665 nm. And the notable different fluorescence response mechanisms of probes 1a and 1c toward Cys can be interpreted by HRMS and time-dependent density functional theorety (TDDFT) calculations. Furthermore, both of the two probes indicate high sensitivity and selectivity toward Cys over other similar structured amino acids including homocysteine (Hcy) and glutathione (GSH). Further cellular applications of the two probes have been successfully performed in HeLa cells.
