Chemiluminescent read-out of para-fluoro-thiol reaction events

Abstract

We exploit the fluoride that is released via the para-fluoro-thiol reaction (PFTR) to cleave silyl ethers, turning the PFTR into an effective self-reporting chemiluminescence (CL) probe. The cleavage induces chemiluminescence and hence provides an optical read-out for the conversion of the PFTR. The PFTR chemiluminescence read-out is established on small molecule thiols, and subsequently expanded to polymers and networks.
