A highly selective phenothiazine-based fluorescence ‘turn-on’ indicator based on cyanide-promoted novel protection/deprotection mechanism

Abstract

A cyanide anion (CN)-triggered deprotection of NH-protected phenothiazine, (E)-10-(10H-phenothiazin-3′-yl)propenal, has been discovered as a novel mechanism for the highly selective fluorescence detection of CN under ambient conditions. The present protocol may pave the way for its broad application in organic synthesis in the near future.
