Benefits of technology

[0006] Oxidatively sensitive fluorogenic probes, such as those provided by the present invention, offer a number of advantages that are not realized with non-fluorescent probes for singlet oxygen. For example, fluorescent probes provide more sensitive measurement of singlet oxygen, the ability to take measurements in live cells over real time and the ability to combine the fluorogenic probes with other fluorogenic or fluorescent probes, in order to simultaneously investigate multiple parameters of live cellular function.

Problems solved by technology

However, while singlet oxygen (1O2) has an analogous electronic structure to these reactive oxygen species, its physiological role is not as well delineated.
Unfortunately, current detection techniques are unreliable, as they all possess low specificity and sensitivity for singlet oxygen.

Preparation of Compound 2

[0192] To a solution of 9-methylanthracene (10 g, 652 mmol) in CCl4 (700 mL) was added a solution of Br2 (3.2 mL, 782 mmol) in CCl4 (200 mL) over a period of 7 hrs. The mixture was stirred at room temperature in the dark overnight and then poured into saturated NaHCO3 solution (300 mL). The aqueous layer was extracted with CHCl3 and the combined organic layers were dried with anhydrous Na2SO4. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using hexane as eluent to give 2 (3.54 g).

Preparation Compound 3

[0193] To a solution of 2,4-dimethoxyphenylboronic acid (2.46 g, 13.5 mmol), 2 (1.83 g, 6.75 mmol) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (0.84 g, 0.68 mmol) in toluene (60 mL) and isopropanol (30 mL) was added a solution of K2CO3 (5.6 g, 40.5 mmol) in H2O (10 mL). The mixture was bubbled with N2 gas for 5 minutes and then heated to 105° C. under N2 overnight. The mixture was poured into H2O and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried with anhydrous Na2SO4 and the filtrate was removed in vacuo. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using hexanes:EtOAc=5:1 as eluent to give 3 (3.26 g).

Preparation of Compound 4

[0194] To a solution of 3 (3.26 g, 10 mmol) in CH2Cl2 at 0° C. was added a solution of BBr3 (2.4 mL, 25 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (30 mL). The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 2 hrs and poured into ice water. The aqueous layer was extracted with CHCl3 and the combined organic layers were dried with anhydrous Na2SO4. The crude product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel using hexanes:EtOAc=5:1 to 2:1 as eluents to give 4 (2.81 g).

Abstract

The present invention provides fluorogenic probes and corresponding fluorescent compounds, methods of using the probes, compounds and kits that include the probes.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0001] This application claims priority of U.S. Ser. No. 60 / 523,749, filed Nov. 19, 2003, which disclosure is herein incorporated by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to fluorogenic reagents that are environmentally sensitive. The invention has applications in the fields of immunology, diagnostics, molecular biology and fluorescence based assays. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] It is known that, in living bodies and life phenomena, free radical species such as nitrogen monoxide act as second messengers for signal transduction, as well as control blood pressure in the circulatory system. It has also been shown that superoxides and hydrogen peroxide play important roles in the proper functioning of the immune system and the like. However, while singlet oxygen (1O2) has an analogous electronic structure to these reactive oxygen species, its physiological role is not as well delineated. [0004] Early work on t...
