Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of analytical chemistry and fluorescence sensing technology, and specifically belongs to a fluorescence probe detection method and process for N-bromosuccinimide. BACKGROUND

[0002] N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) is an important brominating reagent and mild oxidant, widely used in organic synthesis, pharmaceutical chemistry and material science. Bromination reaction has the advantages of mild reaction conditions, good selectivity, high yield and easy separation of products, and is applied to free radical bromination of allyl and benzyl, electrophilic bromination of ketones, aromatic compounds or heterocyclic compounds, and addition reaction of olefins. It is also widely used as a catalyst, oxidant, etc. It is a commonly used brominating reagent in chemical and pharmaceutical industries. However, the high reactivity of NBS also brings potential problems, such as: the residues of NBS and its by-products (such as succinimide and bromide) may pollute the environment or affect the safety of drugs; and in pharmaceutical or chemical production, the concentration of NBS needs to be monitored in real time to ensure the reaction efficiency and avoid excessive bromination. At present, the detection of NBS mainly relies on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or mass spectrometry (MS), but these methods have the disadvantages of expensive equipment, complex operation and difficulty in real-time monitoring, which limits their application in industrial sites or biological systems. In recent years, fluorescence probes have become a research hotspot in analytical chemistry due to their high sensitivity, high selectivity, real-time imaging capability and low cost. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a specific fluorescence probe-based N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) detection method. SUMMARY

[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a specific fluorescence probe-based N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) detection method and application of known compound structure, which overcomes the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the technical solutions adopted by the present application are as follows: First, a known compound structure as a fluorescence probe in the detection of N-bromosuccinimide, its structural formula is: , The fluorescence probe is a phenothiazine-tetraphenylstilbene conjugated compound, and the molecular formula is C 38 H 27 NS In addition, the fluorescent probe of the present application has an aggregation-induced emission effect in a mixed solvent of water and acetonitrile, and can be applied to the fluorescent detection of NBS; the fluorescent detection step of NBS is: dissolving the fluorescent probe in a solvent to form a fluorescent solution, adding an NBS solution to the above fluorescent solution, then using ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 365 nm for irradiation, and detecting the fluorescence emission intensity.

[0005] The solvent is a mixed solution of water and acetonitrile with a volume ratio of 0-99:100-1.

[0006] Compared with the prior art, the implementation effects of the present application are as follows: the structure of the fluorescent probe in the present application has been reported as a polymer monomer to study the aggregation-induced emission property of the polymer, but its reactivity with NBS has not been studied. In addition, in the prior art, the detection of NBS mainly relies on high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or mass spectrometry (MS), and these methods have the disadvantages of expensive equipment and complex operation. The fluorescent material probe of the present application can realize the fluorescent detection of NBS, has good selectivity, and has a low detection limit. The On-Off type fluorescent detection shows that the above-mentioned fluorescent solution can effectively react with different levels of NBS, highlighting its potential as a sensor for detecting NBS, and providing an effective tool for evaluating NBS in environmental monitoring.

[0010] The reaction steps of phenoxazine and 4-bromotetraphenyl ethylene are as follows:

[0011] The fluorescent probe prepared in this embodiment was analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance, and its nuclear magnetic resonance hydrogen spectrum (using a Bruker-500MHz nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer of Bruker Company) was obtained as shown in Figure 1 1 H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3)δ 7.28 – 7.28 (m, 2H), 7.20 – 7.08 (m, 17H), 7.00 (dd, J = 7.5, 1.7 Hz, 2H), 6.88 (td, J = 7.8, 1.7 Hz, 2H), 6.82 (td, J = 7.4, 1.3 Hz, 2H), 6.16 (dd, J = 8.1, 1.3 Hz, 2H). The fluorescent probe prepared in this embodiment was analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance, and its nuclear magnetic resonance carbon spectrum (using a Bruker-500MHz nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer of Bruker Company) was obtained as shown in Figure 2 13 ​​​C NMR (125 MHz, CDCI3) δ 144.1, 144.0, 143.6, 143.2, 142.9, 142.1, 140.2, 138.9, 133.6, 131.4, 131.3, 131.3, 130.0, 127.9, 127.8, 127.6, 126.8, 126.7, 126.6, 122.4, 120.1, 117.8, 116.0. The fluorescence emission test and NBS detection test (the test uses a F-4600 fluorescence spectrophotometer of HITACHI) were then performed on the fluorescent probe of the present embodiment: (1) Fluorescence emission of the fluorescent probe in different volume ratios of acetonitrile and water mixed solvents: 5.3 mg of the fluorescent probe was dissolved in 1 mL of acetonitrile, and 10 microliters of the solution was diluted in 10 mL of mixed solvents of acetonitrile and water in different volume ratios, so as to configure a fluorescent probe solution with a concentration of 1 x 10 -5 mol / L. The fluorescence emission of the fluorescent material in different volume ratios of acetonitrile and water mixed solvents was tested under excitation at a wavelength of 365 nm (the volume ratio of water to acetonitrile was 0-99:100-1). The emitted fluorescence was green, and the maximum emission wavelength was 497 nm. The green fluorescence emission spectrum is shown in Figure 3 It can be seen that the fluorescent probe can produce fluorescence emission after being irradiated by ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 365 nm in acetonitrile and water mixed solvents, and the fluorescence intensity is relatively obvious when the water content is 60%-99%.

[0012] (2) Selective detection of NBS by the fluorescent probe A fluorescent probe acetonitrile and water mixed solution (water content 70%) with a concentration of 1 x 10 -5 mol / L was configured. 5 mL of the fluorescent probe solution was taken, and different oxidants (such as HNO3, TEMPO, TBHP, NCS, KMnO4, Fe(NO3)3, Br2, NBS) were added to the above-mentioned fluorescent solution, wherein the concentration of the oxidant was 5 x 10 −5 mol / L, and the fluorescence change was observed. Only in the presence of NBS, the fluorescent solution was quenched under ultraviolet irradiation at a wavelength of 365 nm. The fluorescence emission spectrum is shown in Figure 4 .

[0013] (4) Detection limit determination of the detection of NBS by the fluorescent material 5 mL of a fluorescent probe acetonitrile and water mixed solution (water content 70%) with a concentration of 1 x 10 -5 mol / L was taken, and different concentrations of NBS were added to the above-mentioned fluorescent solution, wherein the concentration of NBS was 0 5 x 10 −5 mol / L, and after irradiation by 365 nm UV light, the change in fluorescence at 497 nm was observed. The fluorescence emission spectrum is shown in Figure 2. Figure 5 The detection limit of the fluorescent solution for NBS was calculated according to the linear relationship between fluorescence intensity and concentration. The linear relationship graph is shown in Figure 3. Figure 6 It can be seen that the fluorescence intensity is linearly related to the concentration of NBS. Example Two
