Studies on acedan-based mononuclear zinc complexes toward selective fluorescent probes for pyrophosphate.

چکیده
We have demonstrated that mononuclear Zn(II)-dipicolylamine (DPA) complexes with an auxiliary ligand can fluorescently discriminate pyrophosphate over ATP with as high selectivity as the known fast responding dinuclear bis(ZnDPA) complexes.

Nanomolar pyrophosphate detection and nucleus staining in living cells with simple terpyridine–Zn(II) complexes
Great efforts have been made to develop fluorescent probes for pyrophosphate (PPi) detection. Nucleus staining with fluorescence microscopy has been also widely investigated. But fluorescent probes for PPi detection with high sensitivity in water medium and nucleus staining with low-cost non-precious metal complexes in living cells are still challenging. Herein, we report simple terpyridine-Zn(...
متن کاملLibrary Synthesis, Screening, and Discovery of Modified Zinc(II)-Bis(dipicolylamine) Probe for Enhanced Molecular Imaging of Cell Death
Zinc(II)-bis(dipicolylamine) (Zn-BDPA) coordination complexes selectively target the surfaces of dead and dying mammalian cells, and they have promise as molecular probes for imaging cell death. A necessary step toward eventual clinical imaging applications is the development of next-generation Zn-BDPA complexes with enhanced affinity for the cell death membrane biomarker, phosphatidylserine (P...
متن کاملZn(II) complex of terpyridine for the highly selective fluorescent recognition of pyrophosphate.
Pyrophosphate ion (PPi) is crucial in varieties of biological processes and industrial applications, and thus it is very important how to recognize it with high selectivity. In this contribution, one terpyridine (tpy)-based fluorescent molecule, 4-(methylphenyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine (mptpy), has been reported to display a highly selective recognition for PPi in the presence of Zn(II). After ...
متن کاملFluorescent BODIPY-based Zn(II) complex as a molecular probe for selective detection of neurofibrillary tangles in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients.
We have developed a new fluorescent binuclear Zn(II) complex for the detection of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) of hyperphosphorylated tau proteins, a representative hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The probe 1 incorporates a fluorescent BODIPY unit and two Zn(II)-2,2'-dipicolylamine (Dpa) complexes as a binding site for phosphorylated amino acid residues. Using fluorescence titration to ...
متن کاملEffect of Bridging Anions on the Structure and Stability of Phenoxide Bridged Zinc Dipicolylamine Coordination Complexes.
A series of four related phenol derivatives, with 2,2'-dipicolylamine substituents at the ortho positions, were prepared and their Zn2+ coordination complexes studied by spectroscopic methods. X-ray crystal diffraction analysis of a dinuclear zinc complex with two bridging acetate anions showed a ternary structure with highly charged interior and lipophilic exterior, which helps explain why thi...
