Abstract: Anew fluorogenic substrate, 3, 4-dihydro-2 (1H)-quinoxaloe (DHQXL), for per-oxidase was synthesized- It can be converted to strong fluorescent compound 2(1H)-quinox-alone(QXL) in the presence of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or its mimetic enzymes heminand Mn-TPPS4. Pure fluorescent product was isolated by HPLC.The structure of the prod-uct was determined using1H NMRand MSspectroscopic techniques, which confirmed theproposed reaction mechanism for the enzyme catalyzed reaction.The property of the sub-strate was evaluated- The experimental results showed that it is a fluorogenic substrate forperoxidase that has a high potential in future application.

Key words: Fluorogenic substrate, 3,4-Dihydro-2 (1H)-quinoxalone, Horseradish peroxi-dase, Mimetic enzyme
