Abstract

The responses of a reaction-based fluorescent probe BI-Py towards alkyl halide, epoxide, carbonate, sulfate, sulphonate and triflate were evaluated and the probe achieved selective detection of ethyl triflate in acetonitrile with a LOD of 1.08 μM. BI-Py exhibited great potential for detecting triflate as a genotoxic impurity in drug substances.
