    Abstract:
    As a common gaseous signaling molecule, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) plays a vital role in physiology and pathology. The development of fluorescent probes for detecting H2S has attracted widespread attention. However, most of the reported fluorescent probes with nitrobenzoxadiazole (NBD) as the recognition group have been widely used to simultaneously detect biothiols and H2S, instead of specifically detecting H2S. Herein, a novel NBD-based near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent probe named CX-N for the detection of H2S is synthesized. The selectivity of CX-N for H2S is significantly higher than that for biothiols and other potential interferences. After reacting with H2S, CX-N shows a significant increase in NIR fluorescence (75-fold), large Stokes shift (155 nm) and fast response (4 min). And the possible response mechanism of CX-N to H2S is given and confirmed by HPLC and HRMS. Based on the low cytotoxicity of CX-N, it has been used for H2S imaging in live cells and zebrafish. More importantly, CX-N has also been successfully applied for the real-time imaging of H2S in inflammatory and tumor mice based on its NIR emission, which provides a reliable platform for the specific recognition of H2S in complex biological systems.
