摘要

We report a versatile cyanostilbene-boronate probe, which shows fluorescence emission enhancement in ethanol:HEPES buffer, attributed to aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE), and detects hydrogen peroxide in solution, thin films as well as in industrial samples. The sensing protocol relies on the peroxide mediated transformation of the arylboronate moiety to phenol, and is well supported by various spectroscopic techniques and the theoretical studies. Industrial application, with no precedence, is unique as it can overcome inherent limitations of the qualitative determination method currently used in chemical processing industry.
