Abstract:
Hydrazine and its derivatives are one of the most important raw chemical materials that have extensive utilization in many areas. It is also widely applied as pharmaceutical derivatives, such as the antipsychotic drug, anti-infective drug, and antitumor drug. However, hydrazine is a highly toxic reagent which can bring severe damage to human and animals. Herein, we have reported a new benzothiazole substituted naphthalene based probe for hydrazine with huge fluorescence change ratio. The fluorescence change ratio at F390/F509 is up to 200-fold in the presence of hydrazine in 60 min. The probe exhibited negligible cytotoxicity toward HeLa cells and was applied for hydrazine detection successfully in HeLa cells.
