A new fluorescent probe made from (E)-2-(benzo[d]thiazol-2-yl)-3-(6-hydroxynaphthalen-2-yl) acrylonitrile(Probe 1) was synthesized for the determination ofbisulfite concentrations in real food samples (red wine andsugar). Adding bisulfite to a Probe 1 solution caused amarked decrease in fluorescence intensity and a visualcolor change from yellow to light yellow. This distinctcolor response indicates that Probe 1 could be used as avisual sensor for bisulfite. Probe 1 can detect bisulfitequantitatively in the range 0–400 lM with a detection limitof 0.10 lM. This makes Probe 1 a convenient signalinginstrument for determining bisulfite levels in sugar and redwine samples.
