Abstract

A photochemical reaction in which the imidazole ring is opened under UV irradiation to generate highly luminescent benzoylimino group by O₂ has been discovered. This photochemical reaction displays great potential for applications that use a fluorescent probe as a oxygen sensor; it has a lowest detectable volume ratio of ∼0.2% and photo storage area.
