Symmetric and asymmetric xanthene dyes have been prepared by a convenient one-step procedure from aldehyde and diol or m-aminophenol precursors using concentrated phosphoric acid as a solvent. This protocol provides access to water-soluble dyes with large Stoke's shifts and far-red fluorescence emission. These compounds are envisioned as components of fluorescence-based sensors for a variety of imaging applications. ...[more]
