Functionalized BF(2) Chelated Azadipyrromethene Dyes.

ABSTRACT: Fluorescent molecules that emit in the near infra-red are potentially useful as probes for biotechnology. A relatively under-explored design for probes of this type are the aza-BODIPY dyes; this study was performed to enhance our understanding of these materials and ways in which they may be used in dye cassette systems. Thus, the aza-BODIPY dyes 1a - g were prepared. An advanced intermediate towards an eighth compound in the series, 6h, was made but it could not be complexed with boron effectively to give 1h. Spectroscopic properties of these compounds were recorded, and correlations between substituent effects, UV absorbance, fluorescence emissions, and quantum yields were made. Compound 1a was coupled with a fluorescein-alkyne derivative to give the energy transfer cassettes 2 and 3. Both these compounds gave poor energy transfer, and the possible reasons for this were discussed.

BF2-Azadipyrromethene Fluorophores for Intraoperative Vital Structure Identification.

Project description:A series of mono- and bis-polyethylene glycol (PEG)-substituted BF2-azadipyrromethene fluorophores have been synthesized with emissions in the near-infrared region (700-800 nm) for the purpose of fluorescence guided intraoperative imaging; chiefly ureter imaging. The Bis-PEGylation of fluorophores resulted in higher aqueous fluorescence quantum yields, with PEG chain lengths of 2.9 to 4.6 kDa being optimal. Fluorescence ureter identification was possible in a rodent model with the preference for renal excretion notable through comparative fluorescence intensities from the ureters, kidneys and liver. Ureteral identification was also successfully performed in a larger animal porcine model under abdominal surgical conditions. Three tested doses of 0.5, 0.25 and 0.1 mg/kg all successfully identified fluorescent ureters within 20 min of administration which was sustained up to 120 min. 3-D emission heat map imaging allowed the spatial and temporal changes in intensity due to the distinctive peristaltic waves of urine being transferred from the kidneys to the bladder to be identified. As the emission of these fluorophores could be spectrally distinguished from the clinically-used perfusion dye indocyanine green, it is envisaged that their combined use could be a step towards intraoperative colour coding of different tissues.

Dual Color Imaging from a Single BF2-Azadipyrromethene Fluorophore Demonstrated in vivo for Lymph Node Identification.

Project description:Dual emissions at ~700 and 800 nm have been achieved from a single NIR-AZA fluorophore 1 by establishing parameters in which it can exist in either its isolated molecular or aggregated states. Dual near infrared (NIR) fluorescence color lymph node (LN) mapping with 1 was achieved in a large-animal porcine model, with injection site, channels and nodes all detectable at both 700 and 800 nm using a preclinical open camera system. The fluorophore was also compatible with imaging using two clinical instruments for fluorescence guided surgery. Methods: An NIR-AZA fluorophore with hydrophilic and phobic features was synthesised in a straightforward manner and its aggregation properties characterised spectroscopically and by TEM imaging. Toxicity was assessed in a rodent model and dual color fluorescence imaging evaluated by lymph node mapping in a large animal porcine models and in ex-vivo human tissue specimen. Results: Dual color fluorescence imaging has been achieved in the highly complex biomedical scenario of lymph node mapping. Emissions at 700 and 800 nm can be achieved from a single fluorophore by establishing molecular and aggregate forms. Fluorophore was compatible with clinical systems for fluorescence guided surgery and no toxicity was observed in high dosage testing. Conclusion: A new, biomedical compatible form of NIR-dual emission wavelength imaging has been established using a readily accessible fluorophore with significant scope for clinical translation.

Mechanism of cell death mediated by a BF2-chelated tetraaryl-azadipyrromethene photodynamic therapeutic: dissection of the apoptotic pathway in vitro and in vivo.

Project description:Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an established treatment modality for cancer. ADPM06 is an emerging non-porphyrin PDT agent which has been specifically designed for therapeutic application. Recently, we have demonstrated that ADPM06-PDT is well tolerated in vivo and elicits impressive complete response rates in various models of cancer when a short drug-light interval is applied. Herein, the mechanism of action of ADPM06-PDT in vitro and in vivo is outlined. Using a drug and light combination that reduces the clonogenicity of MDA-MB-231 cells by >90%, we detected a well-orchestrated apoptotic response accompanied by the activation of various caspases in vitro. The generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon photosensitizer irradiation was found to be the key instigator in the observed apoptotic response, with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) found to be the intracellular site of initial PDT damage, as determined by induction of a rapid ER stress response post-PDT. PDT-induced apoptosis was also found to be independent of p53 tumor suppressor status. A robust therapeutic response in vivo was demonstrated, with a substantial reduction in tumor proliferation observed, as well as a rapid induction of apoptosis and initiation of ER stress, mirroring numerous aspects of the mechanism of action of ADPM06 in vitro. Finally, using a combination of (18) F-labeled 3'-deoxy-3'-fluorothymidine ((18) F-FLT) nuclear and optical imaging, a considerable decrease in tumor proliferation over 24-hr in two models of human cancer was observed. Taken together, this data clearly establishes ADPM06 as an exciting novel PDT agent with significant potential for further translational development.

Highly photostable near-infrared fluorescent pH indicators and sensors based on BF2-chelated tetraarylazadipyrromethene dyes.

Project description:In this study, a series of new BF(2)-chelated tetraarylazadipyrromethane dyes are synthesized and are shown to be suitable for the preparation of on/off photoinduced electron transfer modulated fluorescent sensors. The new indicators are noncovalently entrapped in polyurethane hydrogel D4 and feature absorption maxima in the range 660-710 nm and fluorescence emission maxima at 680-740 nm. Indicators have high molar absorption coefficients of ~80,000 M(-1) cm(-1), good quantum yields (up to 20%), excellent photostability and low cross-sensitivity to the ionic strength. pK(a) values of indicators are determined from absorbance and fluorescence measurements and range from 7 to 11, depending on the substitution pattern of electron-donating and -withdrawing functionalities. Therefore, the new indicators are suitable for exploitation and adaptation in a diverse range of analytical applications. Apparent pK(a) values in sensor films derived from fluorescence data show 0.5-1 pH units lower values in comparison with those derived from the absorption data due to Förster resonance energy transfer from protonated to deprotonated form. A dual-lifetime referenced sensor is prepared, and application for monitoring of pH in corals is demonstrated.

Identifying STEDable BF2-Azadipyrromethene Fluorophores

Project description:BF2-azadipyrromethenes are highly versatile fluorophores used for cellular and in vivo imaging in the near-infrared and far-red regions of the spectrum. As of yet, their use in conjunction with super-resolution imaging methodologies has not been explored. In this report, a series of structurally related BF2-azadipyrromethenes has been examined for their suitability for use with stimulated emission depletion (STED) nanoscopy. The potential for STED imaging was initially evaluated using aqueous solutions of fluorophores as an effective predictor of fluorophore suitability. For live cell STED imaging in both 2D and 3D, several far-red emitting BF2-azadipyrromethenes were successfully employed. Image resolution below the diffraction limit of a confocal microscope was demonstrated through measurement of distinct intracellular features including the nuclear membrane, nuclear lamina invaginations, the endoplasmic reticulum, and vacuoles. As the STED ability of BF2-azadipyrromethene fluorophores has now been established, their use with this super-resolution method may be expected to increase in the future.

Dyes Adsorption Behavior of Fe3O4 Nanoparticles Functionalized Polyoxometalate Hybrid.

Project description:The magnetic adsorbent, Fe3O4@[Ni(HL)2]2H2[P2Mo5O23]·2H2O (Fe3O4@1), is synthesized by employing the nanoparticles Fe3O4 and polyoxometalate hybrid 1. Zero-field-cooled (ZFC) and field-cooled (FC) curves show that the blocking temperature of Fe3O4@1 was at 120 K. Studies of Fe3O4@1 removing cationic and anionic dyes from water have been explored. The characterization of Fe3O4@1, effects of critical factors such as dosage, the concentration of methylene blue (MB), pH, adsorption kinetics, isotherm, the removal selectivity of substrate and the reusability of Fe3O4@1 were assessed. The magnetic adsorbent displayed an outstanding removal activity for the cationic dye at a broad range of pH. The adsorption kinetics and isotherm models revealed that the adsorption process of Fe3O4@1 was mainly governed via chemisorption. The maximum capacity of Fe3O4@1 adsorbing substance was 41.91 mg g-1. Furthermore, Fe3O4@1 showed its high stability by remaining for seven runs of the adsorption-desorption process with an effective MB removal rate, and could also be developed as a valuable adsorbent for dyes elimination from aqueous system.

Synthesis and properties of sulfur-functionalized triarylmethylium, acridinium and triangulenium dyes.

Project description:Triangulenium dyes functionalized with one, two or three ethylthiol functionalities were synthesized and their optical properties were studied. The sulfur functionalities were introduced by aromatic nucleophilic substitution of methoxy groups in triarylmethylium cations with ethanethiol followed by partial or full ring closure of the ortho positions with nitrogen or oxygen bridges leading to sulfur-functionalized acridinium, xanthenium or triangulenium dyes. For all the dye classes the sulfur functionalities are found to lead to intensely absorbing dyes in the visible range (470 to 515 nm), quite similar to known analogous dye systems with dialkylamino donor groups in place of the ethylthiol substituents. For the triangulenium derivatives significant fluorescence was observed (?f = 0.1 to ?f = 0.3).

Highly Efficient Organic Dyes Capture Using Thiol-Functionalized Porous Organic Polymer.

Project description:It is of great significance to develop new materials for efficient capture cationic dyes methylene blue (MB) and malachite green (MG). In this work, a novel triptycene-based porous organic polymer with abundant thiol groups (TPP-SH) was prepared successfully by postmodification with a high surface area and robust triptycene-based porous organic polymer (TPP). The obtained TPP-SH exhibited a high surface area, good porosity, and good thermal stability. In addition, TPP-SH was highly effective at capturing MB and MG from aqueous solution because of the abundant thiols in its hierarchical structure. Under optimal adsorption conditions, the maximum adsorption capacities of MB and MG calculated by the Langmuir model at room temperature were 1146.3 and 689.6 mg g-1, respectively. These values are higher than those of many reported materials. The MB and MG adsorption rates were 0.0154 and 6.69 × 10-4 mg g-1 min-1, respectively. Furthermore, the polymer TPP-SH had a good recycling performance after adsorption-desorption at least five times. Therefore, the TPP-SH exhibited a high adsorption capacity, fast adsorption kinetics, and easy-recycling behavior, providing a new avenue for the preparation of green functionalized adsorbents with good performance for water decontamination.

Rotaxane-Functionalized Dyes for Charge-Rectification in p-Type Photoelectrochemical Devices.

Project description:A supramolecular photovoltaic strategy is applied to enhance power conversion efficiencies (PCE) of photoelectrochemical devices by suppressing electron-hole recombination after photoinduced electron transfer (PET). Here, the author exploit supramolecular localization of the redox mediator-in close proximity to the dye-through a rotaxane topology, reducing electron-hole recombination in p-type dye-sensitized solar cells (p-DSSCs). Dye PRotaxane features 1,5-dioxynaphthalene recognition sites (DNP-arms) with a mechanically-interlocked macrocyclic redox mediator naphthalene diimide macrocycle (3-NDI-ring), stoppering synthetically via click chemistry. The control molecule PStopper has stoppered DNP-arms, preventing rotaxane formation with the 3-NDI-ring. Transient absorption and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy studies show ultrafast (211 ± 7 fs and 2.92 ± 0.05 ps) PET from the dye-moiety of PRotaxane to its mechanically interlocked 3-NDI-ring-acceptor, slowing down the electron-hole recombination on NiO surfaces compared to the analogue . p-DSSCs employing PRotaxane (PCE = 0.07%) demonstrate a 30% PCE increase compared to PStopper (PCE = 0.05%) devices, combining enhancements in both open-circuit voltages (VOC = 0.43 vs 0.36 V) and short-circuit photocurrent density (JSC = -0.39 vs -0.34 mA cm-2 ). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy shows that PRotaxane devices exhibit hole lifetimes (τh ) approaching 1 s, a 16-fold improvement compared to traditional I- /I3 - -based systems (τh = 50 ms), demonstrating the benefits obtained upon nanoengineering of interfacial dye-regeneration at the photocathode.

Functionalized Graphene Derivatives and TiO2 for High Visible Light Photodegradation of Azo Dyes.

Project description:Functionalized graphene derivatives including graphene oxide (GO), reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and heteroatom (nitrogen/sulphur (N/S) or boron (B))-doped graphene were used to synthesize composites with TiO2 (T). The photocatalytic performance of composites was assessed for the degradation of Orange G dye (OG) under simulated solar light. All the prepared graphene derivatives-TiO2 composites showed better photocatalytic performance than bare TiO2. A higher photocatalytic activity was found for the composites containing GO and N/S co-doped rGO (kapp = 109.2 × 10-3 and 48.4 × 10-3 min-1, for GO-T and rGONS-T, respectively). The influence of both initial solution pH and the reactive species involved in the OG degradation pathway were studied. The photocatalytic activity of the samples decreased with the increase of the initial pH (from 3.0 to 10.0) due to the occurrence of electrostatic repulsive forces between the photocatalysts surface and the molecules of OG, both negatively charged. The use of selective scavengers showed that although the photogenerated holes dominate the degradation mechanism, radicals and singlet oxygen also participate in the OG degradation pathway. In addition, reutilization experiments indicated that the samples were stable under the reaction conditions used.
