We prepared the novel fluorescent polymer latex particles which can change their fluorescence intensity in response to the increasing NaCl concentration in water. Core polymer latex particles were synthesized by emulsifier-free emulsion polymerization of styrene and 2-(2-chloroisobutyroyloxy)ethyl methacrylate. Hydrophilic polymer chains containing epoxy groups were grafted from the core particles by surface-initiated atom transfer radical copolymerization of methoxy polyethyleneglycol methacrylate (MEOxMA, x = 4 or 9) and glycidyl methacrylate in aqueous media. After azidation of epoxy groups in graft chains, a water-soluble fluorescent dansyl derivative was successfully coupled with the graft chains by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition in aqueous media. The wavelength of maximum fluorescence intensity of polymer particles carrying graft chains with longer PEG side chains (x = 9) was slightly blue-shifted (7 nm) and the fluorescence intensity increased (1.35 times) with an increase in NaCl concentration as opposed to polymer particles with shorter PEG chains (x = 4).
