[reaction: see text] A new sensing mechanism based on C=N isomerization, which shows a very significant fluorescence enhancement to the metal cations in simple and efficient way, is demonstrated. coumarin derivative (L) containing group was designed as an example for illustration. The free ligand L almost nonfluorescent due isomerization of double bond excited state. However, solution about 200-fold increase quantum yield (about 30%) upon addition Zn(ClO4)2.
A ratiometric fluorescence sensor based on pyrene was designed for selective detection of heparin in HEPES (N-(2-hydroxyethyl)piperazine-N'-ethanesulfonic acid) buffer and serum sample. Pyrene long-chain alkanes were linked through bisquaternary functionality the which could interact with via supramolecular assembly. fluorescent signal change can be observed because specific monomer-excimer conversion is modulated by self-assembly heparin. Upon addition heparin, excimer emission at 489 nm...
The development of near-infrared fluorescent probes with low pKa, high selectivity, photostability, and sensitivity for lysosomal pH detection is great importance. In the present work, we developed a novel probe (Lyso-hNR) based on rhodamine derivative. Lyso-hNR showed fast, highly sensitive, selective fluorescence response to acidic caused by H+-induced structure changes from nonfluorescent spirolactam form emissive open-ring form. displays significant enhancement at 650 nm (over 280-fold)...
Two series of new tetracyclic pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine-based coumarin chromophores were synthesized through a facile reaction between 3-aldehyde-7-diethylaminocoumarin (5) or 3-acetyl-7-diethylaminocoumarin (6) and 5-aminopyrazole derivatives (7) in one-pot procedure. Different condensed products obtained from compounds 5 6, the potential mechanism was studied using with 5-amino-1-phenylpyrazole (7a). The molecular structures characterized by NMR HRMS confirmed X-ray diffraction....
A series of deep red fluorescent dyes (CR1 to CR3) was developed via introduction a coumarin moiety into the rhodamine molecular skeleton. The novel possessed individual advantages and derivatives, emission wavelength extended region (>650 nm) due extension fused-ring conjugate structure simultaneously. To illustrate its value, we designed conveniently synthesized bioimaging (CR1E CR3E) by esterification CR1 CR3, which could selectively stain mitochondria. They were superior MitoTrackers for...
3-Phenylthiophene-based water-soluble copolythiophenes (CPT1) were designed for colorimetric and fluorometric detection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The sensor (CPT1-C) shows a high selectivity to LPS in the presence other negatively charged bioanalytes as well an extreme sensitivity with limit at picomolar level, which is lowest ever achieved among all synthetic sensors available thus far. Significantly, sensing interaction can be apparently observed by naked eyes, presents great advantage...
Lipid droplets (LDs) are crucial organelles used to store lipids and participate in lipid metabolism cells. The abnormal aggregation polarity change of LDs associated with the occurrence diseases, such as steatosis. Herein, polarity-sensitive probe TBPCPP a donor-acceptor-π-acceptor (D-A-π-A) structure was designed synthesized. has large Stokes shift (∼220 nm), excellent photostability, high LD targeting, considerable two-photon absorption (TPA) cross-section (∼226 GM), enabling deep imaging...
Abstract Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has emerged as an appealing therapeutic option against biofilm infections. However, effectively penetrating the dense barrier of and anchoring bacteria to achieve elimination wound healing under hypoxic environments remains a challenge for aPDT. Herein, three type I/II Hypocrellin B (HB)‐cationic photosensitizers (HB‐P, HB‐TP, HB‐TTP) are designed based on multi‐cationic long chains molecular engineering strategy. With increasing number...
