1. Steady state absorption and fluorescence measurements The UV-vis absorption spectra were recorded on an Agilent 8453 photodiode array UV-vis spectrometer. Fluorescence spectra were recorded using a JASCO FP6600 with a slit width of 5 nm and 6 nm for excitation and emission, respectively. The path length was 1 cm with a cell volume of 3.0 ml. Excitation was provided at 510 nm. For all the fluorescence measurements, MtFluNox was used at a final concentration of 2 µm (from 1 mm stock solution in DMSO) in 50 mm HEPES buffer (ph 7.4). Quantum yields were measured in 50 mm HEPES buffer (ph 7.4) by using a Quantaurus-QY absolute photo-luminescence quantum yields measurement system (C11347-01, Hamamatsu Photonics). Fluorescence responses of MtFluNox to various metal ions were measured as follows. An aqueous solution of transition metal ion species (stock solutions: 10 mm for MnSO 4, CoSO 4, NiSO 4, FeSO 4, FeCl 3, CuSO 4, and ZnSO 4 ; 1 M for NaCl, KCl, MgCl 2, and CaCl 2 ), or [Cu(CH 3 CN) 4 ]PF 4 (from 10 mm stock solution in MeCN) was added to give the final concentrations of 1 mm for Na(I), K(I), Mg(II), and Ca(II) and 20 µm for other metal ion species. In the case of Cu(I), MtFluNox was reacted with Cu(I) in the presence of 200 µm glutathione. The mixtures were kept at room temperature for 1 h and then applied to fluorescence measurement. Selectivity for reductants, reactive oxygen species, transferrin, and effect of chelator were tested under the conditions as follows. Na 2 S 2 O 3 : 100 µm from 100 mm stock solution in water Sodium ascorbate : 1 mm from 100 mm stock solution in water Cysteine : 1 mm from 100 mm stock solution in water Glutathione : 1 mm from 100 mm stock solution in HEPES buffer (ph was adjusted to 7.4) NaNO 2 : 100 µm from 100 mm stock solution in water O 2 : 100 µm from saturated KO 2 solution in DMSO (ca. 1 mm) 1) H 2 O 2 : 100 µm from 100 mm stock solution in water OH : 200 µm H 2 O 2 and 20 µm FeSO 4 (1 mm stock solution of MtFluNox in DMF was used instead of DMSO) NaOCl : 100 µm from 100 mm stock solution in water NO : 100 µm NOC-5 from 10 mm stock solution in 0.1 M NaOH aq. hemin : 20 µm hemin from 5 mm stock solution in DMSO. Fe(II)+Bpy : 20 µm FeSO 4 in the presence of 200 µm 2,2'-bipyridyl (Bpy) form 100 mm stock solution in DMSO. Fe(II)+DFO : 20 µm FeSO 4 FeSO 4 in the presence of 200 µm deferroxamine (DFO) form 100 mm stock solution in water. MtFluNox (2 µm) was incubated under each condition in 50 mm HEPES buffer (ph 7.4, 0.2% DMF as co-solvent) for 1 h, and then fluorescence spectra were measured, respectively. S2
2. Product analysis To a solution of a probe (100 µm) in 50 mm HEPES buffer (ph 7.4, 5%DMSO as co-solvent) was added a solution of FeSO 4 (final, 1 mm). The mixture was kept for 1 h under an ambient condition. The products were analyzed with LC-MS system (Chromaster 5110, Hitachi High-tech) equipped with a photodiode-array detector (Chromaster 5430, Hitachi High-tech) and a mass spectrometer (Chromaster 5610 MS Detector, Hitachi High-tech) and with Waters symmetry C 18 column (3.5 µm, 4.6 75 mm) eluted with a gradient system consisting of H 2 O (solvent A) and CH 3 CN (solvent B) containing 0.05% formic acid; 20%B to 70%B over 20 min. The retention times were compared with those of the parent dyes in 50 mm HEPES buffer (ph 7.4, 5%DMSO as co-solvent). Assignments of the compounds were based on the observed m/z values at each peak.
