A sensitive and selective fluorescent probe for hydrazine with a unique nonaromatic fluorophore.

ABSTRACT: To achieve sensitive, selective and facile detection of hydrazine in environmental and biological systems, a fluorescent probe (Che-Dcv) with a unique nonaromatic fluorophore was developed. Upon hydrazine addition in 20% DMSO-PBS buffer (pH = 7.4, 10 mM, v/v) at room temperature, the probe displayed a strong emission at 496 nm along with a color change from brown-red to yellow. The response was attributed to the reaction of dicyanovinyl groups with hydrazine to afford hydrazone, which was supported by ¹H NMR and HRMS. The detection limit of Che-Dcv for hydrazine was estimated to be as low as 1.08 ppb and good selectivity over amines including hydroxylamine was observed. Then, the potential of probe-coated test papers to detect hydrazine in solution and vapor phase was demonstrat
