General chemical strategies which provide controlled changes in the emission or absorption properties of biologically compatible fluorophores remain elusive. One strategy employed is the conversion of a fluorophore-attached alkyne (or azide) to a triazole through a copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne coupling (CuAAC)
Benzofurazan derivatization reagents, 4-[2-(N,N-dimethylamino)ethylaminosulfonyl]-7-(2-aminopentylamino)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DAABD-AP) and 4-[2-(N,N-dimethylamino) ethylaminosulfonyl]-7-(2-aminobutylamino)-2,1,3-benzoxadiazole (DAABD-AB), for short-chain carboxylic acids in liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (LC/ESI-MS/MS) were synthesized. These reagents reacted with short chain carboxylic acids in the presence of the condensation reagents at 60
Fluorescent molecular thermometers based on polymers showing a temperature-induced phase transition and labeled with polarity-sensitive fluorescent benzofurazans are the most sensitive known. Here we show a simple and effective method for modulating the sensitive temperature ranges of fluorescent molecular thermometers
Thiol groups play a significant role in various cellular functions. Cellular thiol concentrations can be affected by various physiological or pathological factors. A fluorescence imaging agent that can effectively and specifically image thiols in live cells through fluorescence microscopy is
