This invention has as its object a method for releasing a product by subjecting a compound of Formula (II′): R′ 7 R′ 8 (HX)C 1 -C 2 (YH)R′ 9 R′ 10 to a chemical oxidation that cleaves the bond C 1 -C 2 to obtain the product. In the compound of Formula (II′): R′ 7 to R′ 10 , which are identical or different, correspond to a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted functional group; X and Y, which are identical or different, are an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom, or an amine of Formula -NR 11 R 12 , wherein R 11 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, or a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, and R 12 is not a hydrogen atom. The invention also has as its object a method for releasing a product that comprises, before the chemical oxidation stage, a first step for preparing the compound of Formula (II′). The released product can be a volatile molecule or an active substance or else a specific product. The invention also relates to a method for detecting the released product as well as its applications, in particular for detecting catalytic or enzymatic activities. |
