description

Abstract An Aggregation Induced Emission (AIE) transduction mechanism has been used to detect nitric oxide (NO). A new tetraphenylethylene derivative functionalized with alkyne moieties has been prepared to work as a fluorescent probe. A “click” reaction was chosen because NO is able to generate the required catalytic species by reducing Cu(II) to Cu(I).
