Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fluorescent probes, and in particular to a fluorescent probe for hydrogen sulfide detection, its preparation method and application. Background Art
[0002] Hydrogen sulfide participates in the sulfur cycle in the natural environment and is crucial for the balance of the ecosystem. At the same time, as an endogenous gas signaling molecule in the human body, it regulates various physiological processes. However, hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic gas that causes serious harm to the environment and human health. Low-concentration exposure can lead to symptoms such as eye irritation and headache, while high-concentration exposure may be rapidly fatal, and it is corrosive and can damage production equipment. Therefore, designing and synthesizing a tool that can recognize hydrogen sulfide is of great significance. It can not only meet the needs of environmental monitoring, biomedical research, industrial safety, etc., but also provide more efficient and accurate technical support for research and applications in related fields.
[0003] There are various detection methods for hydrogen sulfide. Common ones include titrimetric analysis, electrochemistry, ion chromatography, biosensing, etc. However, these traditional methods often have many limitations. For example, titrimetric analysis is complex in operation, requiring precise measurement and complex chemical reaction steps; although electrochemistry has a relatively fast response, it has high requirements for instrument equipment and is easily interfered by environmental factors; ion chromatography has high sensitivity and selectivity, but the equipment is expensive and the operation is complex, not suitable for on-site rapid detection; biosensing has problems such as poor stability and long response time. As a new detection technology, fluorescent probes have received extensive attention due to their unique advantages. A fluorescent probe is a molecule that can specifically interact with the target analyte and cause changes in fluorescence signals. In the detection of hydrogen sulfide, fluorescent probes can provide real-time and sensitive detection, and are not interfered by environmental light, suitable for on-site rapid detection of complex samples. The fluorescent probe method has the advantages of high sensitivity, fast response, simple operation, and real-time monitoring. For example, after some fluorescent probes react with hydrogen sulfide, the fluorescence intensity will change significantly, or the fluorescence wavelength will shift, and these changes can be quickly detected by instruments such as fluorescence spectrometers. The high sensitivity of fluorescent probes enables them to detect extremely low concentrations of hydrogen sulfide, which is of great significance for early warning and environmental monitoring. Its fast response ability can achieve real-time monitoring and timely detect the leakage or change of hydrogen sulfide. In addition, the simplicity of the operation of fluorescent probes also makes them more advantageous in practical applications, without complex pretreatment steps, suitable for on-site rapid detection. Designing and synthesizing probes that can selectively recognize and detect HS- ions has broad application prospects. The application of fluorescent probe technology in the detection of hydrogen sulfide can not only overcome the limitations of traditional methods, but also provide a more efficient, sensitive and convenient detection means. This not only plays an important role in protecting human life and health, but also provides strong technical support for environmental protection and industrial safety.
[0004] Quinoline fluorophores have been widely used in fields such as drug synthesis and optical materials due to their semi-rigid molecular structures, nitrogen-containing heterocycles, and good water solubility. However, quinoline fluorophores have some limitations. For example, their conjugated planes are relatively small and their excitation wavelengths are short, resulting in poor recognition performance for analytes when used as fluorescent probes and being difficult to be directly applied to real life. To overcome these drawbacks, the present invention designed a quinoline-based fluorescent probe through molecular modification. Summary of the Invention

[0027]
[0028] In the formula, 1 is 2-methylquinoline, 2 is (E)-2-hydroxy-5-(2-(quinolin-2-yl)vinyl)benzaldehyde, and 3 is 2-(3-((E)-2-hydroxy-5-((E)-2-(quinolin-2-yl)vinyl)styryl)-5,5-dimethylcyclohex-2-en-1-ylidene)malononitrile.

A benzene ring and dicyanoisophorone are introduced between the fluorophore and the recognition site, which can effectively increase the conjugated plane of the probe molecule, thereby increasing the ultraviolet absorption wavelength.

After adding HS - , the ultraviolet absorption peak at 395 nm will red-shift to 440 nm, and a new ultraviolet absorption peak will appear at 612 nm; when viewed under a fluorescent lamp, it is observed that the probe solution turns from colorless to green after adding HS - . When other anions are added, there are no obvious changes in the ultraviolet absorption spectrum and the solution color of this fluorescent probe. In the fluorescence spectrum, with 620 nm as the excitation wavelength, this fluorescent probe has no fluorescence emission peak. After adding HS - , a fluorescence emission peak appears at 740 nm. Under the irradiation of a 365-nm ultraviolet lamp, it is observed that the probe solution fluoresces brightly after adding HS - , changing from non-fluorescent to orange fluorescence, while other anions have no change.

After the reaction was completed, it was cooled to room temperature, and a red solid precipitated out. It was filtered and washed with absolute ethanol; finally, the solid compound was recrystallized with absolute ethanol to obtain a red solid (1.3 g, 80.7%).

Triethylamine (0.34 g, 3.38 mmol) was added, and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. Then, 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl chloride (0.75 g, 2.82 mmol) was slowly added, and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction was monitored by TLC. After the raw materials were completely reacted, the reaction solution was concentrated by rotary evaporation, then extracted with CH2Cl2 (20 mL × 3), and the organic layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under vacuum.

[0068] The anion recognition performance test of the prepared DCIQ-DNBS above was carried out as follows:
[0069] (1) Titration experiment of the fluorescent probe for hydrogen sulfide
[0070] The required solutions and their preparations are as follows:
[0071] a. Dissolve the fluorescent probe DCIQ-DNBS in DMSO to prepare a 5000 μmol·L -1 probe stock solution.
[0072] b. Prepare an HS - stock solution in water with a concentration of 50000 μmol·L -1 .
[0073] c. Measure 100 μL of the 5000 μmol·L -1 probe stock solution and dissolve it in a 25 mL volumetric flask, and dilute it to 25 mL with the solution DMSO / H2O (7:3, pH = 7.4, v / v) to prepare a 25 mL 20 μM probe solution.
[0074] Titration experiment: Pour 25 mL of the 20 μM probe solution into a 100 mL wide-mouth conical flask, and add 2 μL of the 50000 μmol·L -1 HS- The stock solution was shaken evenly, and its ultraviolet absorption spectrum and fluorescence emission spectrum were measured. This operation was repeated, and the ultraviolet and fluorescence titration spectrograms of the probe DCIQ-DNBS were collected.
[0075] The results showed that, as Figure 1 shown in A, when there was no HS - in the system, the probe had no fluorescence emission peak. As the concentration of HS - ions continuously increased (0 - 200 μmol·L -1 ), the fluorescence emission peak of the probe DCIQ-2DNP at 740 nm gradually increased. As Figure 1 shown in B, when the added HS - reached saturation (200 μmol·L -1 ), the fluorescence emission peak at 740 nm no longer changed, indicating that the reaction between the probe DCIQ-DNBS and H2S reached a saturation state.

[0080] c. An HS - stock solution was prepared in a water buffer at a concentration of 50000 μmol·L -1 .
[0081] Take 20 10-mL test tubes, transfer 5 mL of DMSO / H2O (7:3, pH = 7.4, v / v) into the test tubes, and respectively measure 20 μL of 5000 μmol·L -1 probe stock solution into the test tubes (the concentration of the probe is 20 μM). During the test, use a micropipette to add 200 μmol·L -1 of different anion analyte solutions with saturated equivalent to the test tubes for testing, collect the corresponding ultraviolet and fluorescence spectra, and continue to add 200 μmol·L -1 of HS - stock solution to the test tubes, and collect the ultraviolet and fluorescence spectra.
[0082] The results show that under the condition of DMSO / H2O mixed solvent, the probe itself has an ultraviolet absorption peak at 395 nm. Only the addition of HS - will cause the ultraviolet absorption peak at 395 nm to redshift to 440 nm, and a new ultraviolet absorption peak appears at 612 nm. At the same time, the probe solution changes from colorless to green ( Figure 2 ). Meanwhile, in the fluorescence spectrum, with 620 nm as the excitation wavelength, only after the addition of HS - , a fluorescence emission peak appears at 740 nm, and the Stokes shift is 120 nm. Under the irradiation of a 365-nm ultraviolet lamp, it is observed that the probe solution fluoresces brightly after the addition of HS - , changing from non-fluorescent to orange fluorescence ( Figure 3 ). However, when adding other ions (F - , C1 - , Br - , I - , NO3 - , ClO4 - , H2PO4 - , OH - , AcO - , SCN - , CN - , BF4 - , S2 - , HSO4 - , HSO3 - , S2O3 2- ) and biothiols (dithiothreitol, glycine, leucine, glutathione), the ultraviolet and fluorescence spectra and the solution color of the probe DCIQ-DNBS do not change, as Figures 2-3 shown. This indicates that the probe DCIQ-DNBS has a high selectivity for HS - in the mixed solvent DMSO / H2O (7:3, pH = 7.4, v / v).
[0083] (3) Anti-interference ability detection
[0084] The required solutions and their preparations are as follows:
[0085] a. Dissolve the fluorescent probe DCIQ-DNBS in DMSO to prepare a probe stock solution with a concentration of 5000 μmol·L -1 .
[0086] b. Dissolve various anions (F - , Cl - , Br - , I - , NO3 - , ClO4 - , H2PO4 - , OH - , AcO - , SCN - , CN - , BF4 - , S2 - , HSO4 - , HSO3 - , S2O3 2- ) and biothiols (dithiothreitol, glycine, leucine, glutathione) in an HPLC-grade DMSO solution to dissolve and prepare 20 different anion analyte solutions with a volume of 10 mL and a concentration of 50000 μmol·L -1 for standby.
[0087] c. Prepare an HS - stock solution in water with a concentration of 50000 μmol·L -1 .
[0088] Take 20 10-mL test tubes, transfer 5 mL of DMSO / H2O (7:3, pH = 7.4, v / v) to the test tubes, and use a micropipette to measure 20 μL of the 5000 μmol·L -1 probe stock solution into the test tubes (the concentration of the probe is 20 μM). During the test, add 200 μmol·L -1 of different anions (F - , Cl - , Br - , I - , NO3 - , ClO4 - , H2PO4 - , OH - , AcO - , SCN - , CN - , BF4 - , S2 -,HSO4 - ,HSO3 - ,S2O3 2- ) and biothiols (dithiothreitol, glycine, leucine, glutathione) were shaken well, and ultraviolet and fluorescence emission spectra were detected. Finally, 200 μmol·L of saturated equivalent hydrogen sulfide was added to each test tube, shaken well, and its fluorescence emission spectrum was detected again. -1 The results showed that in the presence of other anions, HS
[0089] could still significantly increase the ultraviolet absorption at 612 nm and the fluorescence emission intensity at 740 nm of the fluorescent probe DCIQ-DNBS ( - ), so the fluorescent probe DCIQ-DNBS had good anti-interference ability for the detection of HS Figures 4-5 ), and other anions would not cause any interference to the detection results. - (4) Determination of the lowest detection limit of the fluorescent probe DCIQ-DNBS for hydrogen sulfide
[0090] There was a good linear relationship between the ultraviolet absorbance at 612 nm and the concentration of HS
[0091] (R2 could reach 0.99678). By the formula LOD = 3*δ / S (where σ is the standard deviation of multiple blank measurements and S is the sensitivity of the method (i.e., the slope of the standard curve)), the detection limit of the fluorescent probe DCIQ-DNBS for hydrogen sulfide was calculated to be 9.0 μM ( - ), which indicated that the probe DCIQ-DNBS had good sensitivity to hydrogen sulfide in a DMSO solution with a water content of 30%. Figure 6 The fluorescence intensity of the probe DCIQ-DNBS had a good linear relationship with the concentration of HS
[0092] within a certain range (R2 could reach 0.99766). By the formula LOD = 3*δ / S (where σ is the standard deviation of multiple blank measurements and S is the sensitivity of the method (i.e., the slope of the standard curve)), the fluorescence detection limit of the probe DCIQ-DNBS for hydrogen sulfide was calculated to be 49 nM ( - ). This indicated that the probe DCIQ-DNBS had good sensitivity to HS Figure 7 in a DMSO solution with a water content of 30%. - Example 2
[0093] Based on the probe DCIQ-DNBS prepared in Example 1, this example provides a test paper for detecting hydrogen sulfide, and its preparation method includes the following steps:
[0094]
[0095] Cut the filter paper into strips with a length of 2 cm and a width of 1 cm, soak them in a DMSO solution of 1 mM probe DCIQ-DNBS overnight, take them out and air dry naturally to obtain the test paper for detecting hydrogen sulfide.
[0096] Perform the following performance tests on the prepared test paper for detecting hydrogen sulfide:
[0097] Drop DMSO solutions containing 0.2 mM, 0.5 mM, 1 mM, and 5 mM HS - onto the above test paper. After air drying, observe the change in its fluorescence color under a 365 nm ultraviolet lamp.
[0098] Experiments show that under the irradiation of a 365 nm ultraviolet lamp, the test paper shows no fluorescence in the absence of HS - . When HS - is added, it can be seen that the fluorescence gradually increases, showing a bright orange fluorescence ( Figure 8 ), indicating that the probe DCIQ-DNBS can detect hydrogen sulfide in the form of a test paper.
