    Abstract:
    A highly selective fluorescent sensor H4L based on a bis(salamo)-type compound with two N2O2 chelating moieties as ionophore was successfully developed. Sensor H4L was found to have excellent selectivity for B4O72- over many other anions (Br-, CI-, CN-, CO32-, HCO3-, H2PO4-, HSO4-, NO3-, OAc-, S2O3-, SCN-, SO42-, Hcy (homocysteine) and H2O2), and it exhibited an approximately 150-fold enhancement of the fluorescence response to B4O72- in Tris-HCl buffer (DMF/H2O = 9:1, v/v, pH = 7) solutions. Significantly, its fluorescence intensity was enhanced in a linear fashion with increasing concentrations of B4O72-. The detection limit of sensor H4L towards B4O72- was 8.61 × 10-7 M. The test strips could conveniently, efficiently and simply detect B4O72- ions in Tris-HCl buffer (DMF/H2O = 9:1, v/v, pH = 7) solutions. Furthermore, sensor H4L showed excellent membrane permeability in living cells, and it was successfully used to monitor intracellular B4O72- by confocal luminescence imaging.
