A highly selective fluorescence turn-on detection of hydrogen peroxide and d-glucose based on the aggregation/deaggregation of a modified tetraphenylethylene

A new selective fluorescence turn-on detection of hydrogen peroxide was established by taking advantage of the aggregation induced-emission (AIE) behavior of tetraphenylethylene unit and the reaction of hydrogen peroxide toward the arylboronic ester group in compound 1 . Moreover, compound 1 was successfully utilized for the selective detection of d -glucose in aqueous solution.
