Abstract
⺠Ascorbic acid is a small-molecule reductant with multiple functions in vivo. ⺠Nitroxide is reduced to the corresponding hydroxylamine by ascorbic acid. ⺠Fluorescent nitroxide leads to intramolecular quenching of fluorescence emission. ⺠The new fluorophore-nitroxide could sensitively and easily detect ascorbic acid.
