Bioactive small molecules, hypochlorous acid (HCIO) and sulfur dioxide (SO2), play vital roles in the maintenance of normal physiological function of living organisms. Once their balance is interrupted, it would cause oxidative stress and various diseases. Therefore, monitoring the change of HCIO and SO2 in cellular levels and in vivo is of great significant for exploring their physiological and pathological roles. Herein, we present a dual-site and dual-tum-on fluorescence probe PTBI that could simultaneously monitor HCIO and SO2 in mitochondria by two well-separated emission channels with a difference of 115 nm. The probe exhibited fast response (HCIO: < 5 s, SO2: <1 min) and low detection limits with 45.8 and 53.2 nM for HCIO and SO2, respectively. Using the single fluorescence molecule, we not only realized the detection of the basal and exogenous/endogenous levels of HCIO and SO2, but also achieved the monitoring mitochondrial oxidative stress induced by HCIO in living cells and zebrafish.
