چکیده

A clickable pyrrolopyrrole cyanine (PPCy) dye was synthesized by incorporating an alkyne moiety, followed by click reaction with azide-functionalized molecules of different polarities. The clickable dyes are readily amenable to labelling diverse molecules and exhibit an exceptionally high photostability and an impressive fluorescence quantum yield.

Long fluorescence lifetime molecular probes based on near infrared pyrrolopyrrole cyanine fluorophores for in vivo imaging.

Fluorescence lifetime (FLT) properties of organic molecules provide a new reporting strategy for molecular imaging in the near infrared (NIR) spectral region. Unfortunately, most of the NIR fluorescent dyes have short FLT typically clustered below 1.5 ns. In this study, we demonstrate that a new class of NIR fluorescent dyes, pyrrolopyrrole cyanine dyes, have exceptionally long FLTs ranging fro...

Novel Near-Infrared Cyanine Dyes for Fluorescence Imaging in Biological Systems

Heptamethine cyanine dyes are attractive compounds for imaging purposes in biomedical applications because of their chemical and photophysical properties exhibited in the nearinfrared region. A series of meso amino-substituted heptamethine cyanine dyes with indolenine, benz[e]indolenine and benz[c,d]indolenine heterocyclic moieties were synthesized and their spectral properties including fluore...
