ABSTRACT
Fluorescent solvatochromic dyes that are sensitive to the nature of local microenvironmental, have been explored as probes in applications ranging from the imaging biomolecules to understanding of basic biomolecule functions. To expand the scope of fluorescent solvatochromic dyes for G-quadruplex (G4) DNA structures, and to illustrate the relationship between structure and properties, three newly designed D-π-A type fluorescent dyes were synthesized by introducing diarylimidazole to carbazole skeleton linked to benzene, furan or thiophene π-conjugated bridge and connected with pyridinium acceptor, respectively. Their structural characteristics, optical properties, and G4 DNA binding properties were discussed in detail. In general, the incorporation of furan and thiophene as π-conjugated bridges leads the better conjugation and molecular coplanarity with more efficient intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect compared with benzene bridge. The fluorescence intensities induced upon interaction were found that TP-6 with thiophene π-conjugated bridge had the strongest response toward G4 DNAs. In addition, the application of this dye as a fluorescent agent for living cell imaging was also demonstrated.
