Understanding biological events associated with H2Sn rather than mediated by H2S is of great significance but remains to be solved due to a lack of high-integrity imaging tools. In this study, we report a chemoselective probe for H2Sn over H2S through the molecular engineering of luminogens. Based on our search for H2Sn-activatable probes with high selectivity, we fabricate water-soluble and biocompatible nanoprobes. Such a designed nanoprobe shows rare aggregation-induced dual-color fluorescence responses to H2Sn, lighting up bright emissions at 588 and 750 nm, respectively. By use of this activatable dual-color fluorescence, high-integrity identification of intracellular H2Sn was successfully realized. Thus, our approach to H2Sn-activated multicolor fluorescent probes could provide valuable insight into interrogating H2Sn-mediated biological events.
