Abstract:
                                      Viscosity is an essential micro-environmental parameter and hydrogen sulfide (H
2S) is a critical gaseous signaling molecule, which are both related to various physiological and pathological processes. It has practical significance to detect the concentration of H
2S and viscosity change. In this work, we developed a fluorescent probe   
Mito-ANP   for simultaneous detecting H
2S and viscosity. After the increase of viscosity, the rotation of the probe is prohibited and an intense red fluorescence is released. While, upon the addition of H
2S, the C = C of the probe can react with H
2S
 via the nucleophilic addition to form   
Mito-ANP-H    2    S   and a strong green fluorescence can be observed. Moreover, the probe   
Mito-ANP   exhibited excellent relationship between viscosity and H
2S. In addition, the probe   
Mito-ANP   was successfully to used for fluorescent imaging of viscosity and H
2S changes in neurocyte cells.
