Quinolin-2(1H-)-one-isoxazole dye as an acceptor for mild addition of bisulfite in cationic or zwitterionic aqueous micellar solutions

Abstract

Aqueous micellar solutions of cationic and zwitterionic surfactants have been demonstrated to enable nucleophilic addition reactions of bisulfite to an activated Michael acceptor-type probe (MQI) to be performed in water under mild conditions.
