A new fluorogenic probe for the selective detection of carbon monoxide in aqueous medium based on Pd(0) mediated reaction†
Abstract
A coumarin-based fluorogenic probe, PCO-1, senses carbon monoxide (CO) selectively in HEPES buffer at pH 8.0 through the intramolecular cyclization–elimination pathway based on Pd(0) mediated reaction. The probe exhibits a ‘turn-on’ response of CO over a variety of relevant reactive oxygen, nitrogen and sulfur species.
