Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is an important endogenous signaling molecule with a variety of biological functions. Development of fluorescent probes for highly selective and sensitive detection of H 2 S is necessary. We show here that dual‐reactable fluorescent H 2 S probes could react with higher selectivity than single‐reactable probes. One of the dual‐reactable probes gives more than 4000‐fold turn‐on response when reacting with H 2 S, the largest response among fluorescent H 2 S probes reported thus far. In addition, the probe could be used for high‐throughput enzymatic assays and for the detection of Cys‐induced H 2 S in cells and in zebrafish. These dual‐reactable probes hold potential for highly selective and sensitive detection of H 2 S in biological systems.
