{Abstract}: In this work, a benzofuranone-derived fluorescent probe BFSF was developed for imaging the sulphite level in living hypoxia pulmonary cells. Under the excitation of 510 nm, BFSF showed a strong fluorescence response at 570 nm when reacted with sulphite. In the solution system, the constructed hypercapnia and serious hypercapnia conditions did not affect the fluorescence response. In comparison with the recently reported probes, BFSF suggested the advantages including rapid response, steady signal reporting, high specificity and low cytotoxicity upon living lung cells. Under a normal incubation atmosphere, BFSF realized the imaging of both exogenous and endogenous sulphite in living pulmonary cells. In particular, BFSF achieved imaging the decrease of the sulphite level under severe hypoxia as well as the recovery of the sulphite level with urgent oxygen supplement. With the imaging capability for the sulphite level in living pulmonary cells under hypoxia conditions, BFSF together with the information herein was meaningful for investigating the anaesthesia-related biological indexes.
