RESUMO
In this article, we present the synthesis and the optical properties of three original molecules as potential fluorescent ribonucleoside analogues incorporating a 1,6-naphthyridin-7(6H)-one scaffold as a fluorescent nucleobase and a 1,2,3-triazole as a linkage. The nucleosides were prepared via a Cu alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction between a ribofuranosyl azide and a 4-ethynylpyridine partner. Construction of substituted 1,6-naphthyridin-7(6H)-ones was achieved through two additional steps. Optical property studies were investigated on nucleoside analogues. Powerful fluorescence properties have been evidenced with a remarkable change of emissivity depending on the polarity of the solvent, making these molecules suitable as a new class of artificial fluorescent nucleosides for investigating enzyme binding sites as well as probing nucleic acids. In addition, we are convinced that such analogues could be of great interest in the search for new antiviral or antitumoral drugs based on nucleosides.

Efficient synthesis of original 1,6-naphthyridin-7(6H)-ones and their optical properties are described. Their powerful fluorescence properties including dual fluorescence, solvatochromism, acidochromism, large Stokes shifts and high quantum yields, suitable for biological applications or as luminescent devices in materials science, are evidenced.
