[0054] The preparation steps of TPA-BTTDO are:

[0055] (1) Synthesis of intermediate 1

[0056] 3,6-Dibromothieno[3,2-b]thiophene (1.49g, 5mmol), phenylboronic acid (2.44g, 20mmol), tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.58g, 0.5mmol) and carbonic acid Potassium (3.45g, 20mmol) was added to a 250mL two-necked bottle, nitrogen was replaced three times, and THF (80mL) and H 2 O (20mL), after the injection was completed, the reaction was refluxed at 80°C for 24h. The reaction was quenched by adding water, extracted, concentrated, powdered, separated and purified by column chromatography to obtain intermediate product 1 with a yield of 75%.

[0057] (2) Synthesis of intermediate 2

[0058] Intermediate 1 (5.84g, 20mmol) was added to a 250mL single-necked bottle, dissolved with 100mL of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) ( 7.12g, 40mmol) into the reaction flask, stirred overnight, quenched the reaction by adding water, extracted, concentrated, powdered...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of biochemistry, and discloses a fluorescent probe based on fused ring oxidized thiophene and application of the fluorescent probe in cell imaging. The fluorescent probe based on the fused ring oxidized thiophene is nano-particles coated with the fused ring oxidized thiophene. The fluorescent probe is applied to cell imaging, in particular to lipid droplet and lysosome imaging. The fluorescent probe can be used as a fluorescent imaging dye for lysosomes and lipid droplets, a tracer agent of mutual action between the lysosomes and the lipid droplets,and a tracer agent for lipid droplet formation and lipid droplet metabolism. The fluorescent probe shows blue-fluorescence in the lipid droplets, and shows red fluorescence in the lysosomes after entering cells, the fluorescent signal intensity and the color change are monitored, so that the high-sensitivity and high-resolution tracing of the movement of the droplets in a short time is realized;and the distribution and the metabolism conditions of the droplets are traced through long-time monitoring, and it is proved for the first time that the internal components of the droplets can be recovered by the lysosomes. The fluorescent probe is high in sensitivity and simple to operate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of organic chemistry and chemical biology, in particular to a fluorescent probe based on fused oxythiophene and its application in cell imaging, especially the application in cell lysosome and lipid droplet imaging. Background technique [0002] Lipid droplets and lysosomes play very important roles in cells. Lipid droplet is an important organelle for storing neutral lipids in cells and a storage place for energy substances and cell membrane components. In recent years, a large number of studies have found that lipid droplets are inextricably linked to many current diseases, such as obesity, type II diabetes, arteriosclerosis and even cancer. Therefore, the research on lipid droplets has attracted more and more researchers' attention. Lysosome is the "digestive organ" of the cell, which contains more than 100 kinds of hydrolytic enzymes, which can decompose the substances entering the cell from the outside, and can...
