4-Phenylylboronic acid

As compounds exhibiting enhancing effects on CL reactions, a variety of phenols, e.g., firefly luciferin and 6-hydroxybenzothiazole derivatives [12,13], 4-iodophe-nol [14], 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)thiazole [15], 2-(4,-hydroxy-3 -methoxy-benzyli-dene)-4-cyclopentene-l,3-dione (KIH-201) [16], and 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4,5-diphenylimidazole (HDI) and 2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4,5-di(2-pyridyl)imidazole (HPI)[17] (Fig. 6A), and phenylboronic acid derivatives, e.g., 4-phenylylboronic acid [18], 4-iodophenylboronic acid [19], and4-[4,5-di(2-pyridyl)-l //-imidazol-2-yl]phenylboronic acid (DPPA) [20] (Fig. 6B), in the luminol/hydrogen peroxide/peroxidase system are well known. Rhodamine B and quinine are used as sensitizers in the CL-emitting reaction between cerium (IV) and thiol compounds. This CL reaction was successfully applied to the sensitive determination of various thiol drugs [21-32],...
