Quaternary Ammonium Salt Based NIR-II Probes for in vivo Imaging.

ABSTRACT: Traditional luminescent materials including fluorescent probes suffer from notorious aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) in aqueous solutions. Although several approaches such as the aggregation-induced emission (AIE) effect have been developed, it remains a significant challenge to identify an effective and efficient strategy to resolve this issue. Herein, quaternary ammonium salts Q8PBn and Q8PNap as a novel class of bright near infrared window II (NIR-II, 1,000 - 1,700 nm) probes were designed and synthesized, and the twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) formation at the excited state can be effectively suppressed for the newly designed probes. Furthermore, Q8PNap complexation with fetal bovine serum (Q8PNap/FBS) significantly increased the quantum yield by ~ 32-fold compared with PEGylated tertiary amine Q8P, and Q8PNap/FBS was successfully used to achieve high spatial and temporal resolution imaging of hind limb vasculature, lymphatic system, and small tumor metastasis, as well as precise NIR-II imaging-guided tumor and lymph node surgery in small animal models for the first time.

Project description:A series of double-chain quaternary ammonium salt surfactants N-[N'[3-(gluconamide)] propyl-N'-alkyl]propyl-N,N-dimethyl-N-alkyl ammonium bromide (CnDDGPB, where n represents a hydrocarbon chain length of 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16) were successfully synthesized from D (+)-glucose δ-lactone, N,N-dimethyldipropylenetriamine, and bromoalkane using a two-step method consisting of a proamine-ester reaction and postquaternization. Their surface activity, adsorption, and aggregation behavior in aqueous solution were investigated via measurements of dynamic/static surface tension, contact angle, dynamic light scattering, and transmission electron microscopy. An analysis of their application performance in terms of wettability, emulsifying properties, toxicity, and antibacterial properties was conducted. The results show that with increasing the carbon chain length of the CnDDGPB surfactants, their critical micelle concentration (CMC) increased and the pC20 and efficiency in the interface adsorption of the target product gradually decreased. Moreover, the influence of the hydrophobic carbon chain length on the surface of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was even greater for the wetting effect, reducing the contact angle to 32° within the length range of C8-C14. The results of the contact angle change and the wettability experiments proved that C10DDGPB exhibited the best wettability. The liquid paraffin and soybean oil emulsification ability of CnDDGPB showed an upward trend followed by a downward trend with the growth of the carbon chain, with C12DDGPB exhibiting the best emulsification performance. The Dlong/Dshort ratio was far lower than 1, which indicates mixed-kinetic adsorption. The surfactants formed spherical micelles and showed a unique aggregation behavior in aqueous solution, which showed an increase-decrease-increase trend with the change in concentration. A cell toxicity and acute oral toxicity experiment showed that the CnDDGPB surfactants were less toxic than the commonly used surfactant dodecyldimethylbenzyl ammonium chloride (1227). In addition, at a concentration of 150 ppm, CnDDGPB exhibited the same bacteriostatic effect as 1227 at a concentration of 100 ppm. The results demonstrate that sugar-based amide cationic surfactants are promising as environmentally friendly disinfection products.
