Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of chemical analysis and detection, and in particular to a method for preparing a pyridinium salt-based fluorescent molecular probe for detecting hypochlorite and the application of the fluorescent molecular probe in detecting hypochlorite. Background Art
[0002] Hypochlorous acid (HOC) / hypochlorite, one of the most important reactive oxygen species in biological systems, is generated from chloride ions and hydrogen peroxide by myeloperoxidase under certain physiological conditions. HOC is a double-edged sword in life. On the one hand, HOC protects human health by killing pathogens and bacteria that invade the immune system. On the other hand, excessive HOC can lead to the oxidation of biomolecules (such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and enzymes), resulting in tissue damage, inflammation, and a range of diseases, including cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, liver ischemia-reperfusion injury, and even cancer. Given the extraordinary importance of HO in biology and medicine, the search for highly selective, sensitive, and readily accessible methods for the detection of endogenous HOC has become a hot topic in the biomedical field. Numerous methods exist for the detection of HO, including the starch-potassium iodide method, the N,N-diethyl-p-phenylenediamine colorimetric method, chemiluminescence, spectrophotometry, and fluorescence analysis. Among these detection methods, fluorescent probe technology has outstanding advantages such as good selectivity, high sensitivity, low detection limit, simple operation and low cytotoxicity, making it widely used in chemical and biological analysis.
[0003] Fluorescent probes for detecting hypochlorous acid have been reported one after another, with extensive research based on various fluorophores, recognition groups, and recognition mechanisms. However, these fluorescent probes for hypochlorite suffer from limitations such as lengthy synthesis steps, low detection limits, and long response times. To develop a better method for detecting hypochlorite in aqueous solutions, the present invention designed and synthesized a pyridinium salt-based fluorescent chemical probe that uses changes in fluorescence intensity as a quantitative signal. The probe has been successfully applied to the detection of hypochlorite in aqueous phases. This probe exhibits high sensitivity and selectivity. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The novel fluorescent molecular probe of the present invention has the following structure:
[0007]
