A cucurbit[8]uril-based turn-on supramolecular fluorescent probe between cucurbit[8]uril (Q[8]) and pyronine Y (PyY) (designated 2PyY@Q[8]) in acidic aqueous solution showed a remarkable fluorescence 'turn-on' response to benzimidazole fungicides such as thiabendazole, fuberidazole and carbendazim. The 2PyY@Q[8] fluorescent probe can be used to detect benzimidazole fungicides with high sensitivity and selectivity with a detection limit of ~10mol/L. A good linear relationship of emission intensity at ~580nm for benzimidazole fungicides at concentrations of 0.4-5.0μmol/L was observed. The proposed sensing mechanism was investigated using H NMR spectroscopy combined with density functional theory calculations at the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level. The cell imaging study showed that the 2PyY@Q[8] complex could be used to image benzimidazole fungicide in prostate cancer (PC3) cells, which may help to elucidate relevant biological processes at the molecular level.
在酸性水溶液中,葫芦[8]脲(Q[8])和吖啶黄(PyY)之间的葫芦[8]脲基开启型超分子荧光探针(命名为 2PyY@Q[8])对苯并咪唑类杀菌剂如噻菌灵、呋霜灵和多菌灵表现出显著的荧光“开启”响应。该 2PyY@Q[8]荧光探针可用于高灵敏度和选择性地检测苯并咪唑类杀菌剂,检测限低至约 10mol/L。在 0.4-5.0μmol/L 的浓度范围内,对苯并咪唑类杀菌剂的发射强度在约 580nm 处呈现出良好的线性关系。通过使用 H NMR 光谱结合密度泛函理论计算(B3LYP/6-31G(d)水平)研究了传感机制。细胞成像研究表明,2PyY@Q[8]配合物可用于成像前列腺癌(PC3)细胞中的苯并咪唑类杀菌剂,这可能有助于在分子水平上阐明相关的生物学过程。
