Styrene is a volatile and toxic compound that also has commercial value. Therefore, development of a simple and effective method for detecting styrene in air is essential. Inspired by our previous research, we developed a straightforward method for detecting styrene based on the Heck reaction. The probe detects styrene with a low detection limit (4.21 nM), rapid response (3 min), and good selectivity. In addition, styrene was detected in air by loading the probe into a test paper. Finally, a probe solution absorption method was developed to provide quantitative data of gaseous styrene. This work has the potential to be applied for detection of styrene in air, and it also provides a valuable reference for detection of other Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).

一种用于轻松定量检测气态苯乙烯的荧光探针

苯乙烯是一种挥发性有毒化合物，也具有商业价值。因此，开发一种简单有效的检测空气中苯乙烯的方法至关重要。受我们之前研究的启发，我们开发了一种基于赫克反应的简单检测苯乙烯的方法。该探针检测苯乙烯的检测限低 (4.21 nM)、快速响应 (3 分钟) 和良好的选择性。此外，通过将探针装入试纸中来检测空气中的苯乙烯。最后，开发了探针溶液吸收方法来提供气态苯乙烯的定量数据。该工作具有应用于空气中苯乙烯检测的潜力，也为其他挥发性有机化合物（VOCs）的检测提供了有价值的参考。
