Derivatization-free determination of carbonyl compounds using bifunctional chemiluminescence coreactant thiourea dioxide†
Abstract
Uniquely, thiourea dioxide not only can reduce carbonyl compounds but also generate an oxidant to trigger luminol chemiluminescence. Herein, derivatization-free carbonyl compound detection using bifunctional chemiluminescence coreactant thiourea dioxide has been developed for the first time with the second most crucial flavor benzaldehyde as a representative.
