Abstract
SO2 derivatives play an important role in many metabolic processes, excessive ingestion of them can lead to serious complications of various diseases. In this work, a novel dual ratiometric NIR fluorescent probe XT-CHO based on ICT effect was synthesized for detecting SO2 derivative. In the design of the probe, the α, β-unsaturated bond formed between benzopyran and coumarin was used as the reaction site for SO2, meanwhile, the extended π-conjugate system promoted maximum emission wavelength of the probe up to 708 nm. Notably, the probe exhibited high selectivity and sensitivity for detecting SO2, the limit of detection reached 2.13 nM and 58.5 nM in fluorescence spectra and UV-Vis absorption spectra, respectively. The reaction mechanism of SO2 and XT-CHO had been verified by 1H NMR, ESI-MS spectra and DFT calculation. Moreover, the probe was successfully applied in detecting endogenous and exogenous SO2 in living cells and proved possessed the mitochondrial targeted ability.

SPECTROCHIMICA ACTA. PART A, MOLECULAR AND BIOMOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2024; 316:124321.

Abstract
In this work, we theoretically explored the influence of atomic electronegativity on excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) behavior among novel fluorescent probes BTDI and its derivatives (BODI and BSeDI). A thorough examination of the optimized structural parameters and infrared vibrational spectra reveals an enhancement in intramolecular hydrogen bonding within BTDI and its derivatives upon light excitation. This finding is further reinforced by topological analysis and interaction region indicator scatter plots, which underscores the sensitivity of atomic electronegativity to variations in hydrogen bonding strength. With regards to absorption and fluorescence spectra, the decrease in atomic electronegativity leads to a pronounced redshift, primarily attributed to the narrowing of the energy gap. Additionally, an analysis of potential energy curves and the exploration of intrinsic reaction coordinate paths based on transition state structures afford a deeper understanding of the mechanism underlying ESIPT and being modulated through the manipulation of atomic electronegativity. We anticipate that this work on atomic electronegativity regulating ESIPT behavior will serve as a catalyst for novel fluorescent probes in the future, offering fresh perspectives and insights.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is not only a well-established toxic gas but also an important small molecule bioregulator in all kingdoms of life. In contemporary biology, H2S is often classified as a "gasotransmitter," meaning that it is an endogenously produced membrane permeable gas that carries out essential cellular processes. Fluorescent probes for H2S and related reactive sulfur species (RSS) detection provide an important cornerstone for investigating the multifaceted roles of these important small molecules in complex biological systems. A now common approach to develop such tools is to develop "activity-based probes" that couple a specific H2S-mediated chemical reaction to a fluorescent output. This Review covers the different types of such probes and also highlights the chemical mechanisms by which each probe type is activated by specific RSS. Common examples include reduction of oxidized nitrogen motifs, disulfide exchange, electrophilic reactions, metal precipitation, and metal coordination. In addition, we also outline complementary activity-based probes for imaging reductant-labile and sulfane sulfur species, including persulfides and polysulfides. For probes highlighted in this Review, we focus on small molecule systems with demonstrated compatibility in cellular systems or related applications. Building from breadth of reported activity-based strategies and application, we also highlight key unmet challenges and future opportunities for advancing activity-based probes for H2S and related RSS.

Abstract
The thiolysis of NBD piperazinyl amine (NBD-PZ) is highly selective for H2S over GSH and has been widely used for the development of many H2S fluorescent probes. Whether the NBD amine in H2S-specific probes could be a fluorescent quencher should be further clarified, because NBD amines have been used as environment-sensitive fluorophores for many years. Here, we compared the properties of NBD-based secondary and tertiary amines under the same conditions. For example, the emission of NBD-N(Et)2 is much smaller in water and less responsive to changes in polarity than that of NBD-NHEt. The emission of NBD-PZ-TPP is also smaller than that of NBD-NH-TPP both in aqueous buffer and in live cells. In addition, confocal bioimaging signals of NBD-PZ-TPP with excitation at 405 nm and 454 nm are much weaker than that at 488 nm. Based on these results as well as the previous work on NBD-based probes, we discuss and summarize the design strategies and sensing mechanisms for different NBD-based H2S probes. Moreover, NBD-PZ-TPP may be a useful tool for reaction with and imaging of mitochondrial H2S in live cells. This work should be useful for clarification of the roles of NBD in H2S-specific fluorescent probes as well as for facilitating the development of future NBD-based probes.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) has been recently regarded as one of the most important gasotransmitters in the metabolic system, while abnormal H2S concentration is associated with various diseases. Although numerous fluorescent probes have been developed for the detection of cellular H2S, only a few of them can monitor lysosomal H2S with ratiometric fluorescent output. Here, we developed a water-soluble probe 1 toward H2S by introducing 2,4-dinitrophenyl ether into a novel merocyanine-based dye. As expected, H2S induced an obvious red-shift of the probe from 520 nm to 580 nm in neat aqueous solution, and this fluorescent ratiometric response is highly selective and sensitive (with the detection limit of 0.81 nM), rapid (within 10 s), and effective in a wide pH range (2.0-10.0). In particular, the probe was successfully applied for tracing H2S in the lysosomes of living cells and in zebrafish.

Abstract
Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an important signaling molecule in various biological processes; however, its real-time monitoring in living cells is hampered by long detection time for current fluorescent probes. To overcome this challenge, we designed a phase-transfer catalyst (PTC) approach to accelerate the reaction between the probe and the analyte by conjugating common fluorescent probes - mostly hydrophobic small molecules - with an amphiphilic PEG-PPG-PEG polymer, enabling the controllable assembly of H2S nanoprobes in an aqueous solution. The PEG block helps to establish a PTC microenvironment that endows the assembled nanoprobes with a significantly reduced detection time (3-10 min; versus 20-60 min for small-molecule probes). Based on this approach, we synthesised two nanoprobes of different wavelengths, DS-Blue-nano and DN-Green-nano, which can sensitively detect H2S in living macrophage cells with bright fluorescence starting at as early as 7 min and reaching stability at 15 min. These data suggest PTC-based nanoprobes as a new and generic approach for constructing sensitive fluorescent probes for the real-time imaging of H2S, and perhaps other molecules in future, under biological conditions.
