Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of research and development of fluorescent dyes for cell imaging, and in particular relates to a preparation method of an iridium complex and its application in cell mitochondrial fluorescent dyes with two-photon absorption properties. Background technique
[0002] Cell fluorescence imaging is an important tool that can understand the basic process of life activities at the subcellular level, and is widely used in various fields of life sciences. Excellent fluorescent dyes are one of the important conditions for obtaining high-quality cell fluorescence images. Mitochondria are two-membrane organelles present in most eukaryotic cells, accounting for about 10% of the cell volume. As a polymorphic organelle, its structure is constantly changing due to cell type, cell cycle status and intracellular metabolic status. Important functions of mitochondria are understood to include: energy production mediated by oxidative ph...

Embodiment 1
[0032] The preparation of embodiment 1 iridium complex
[0033] 1. Preparation of iridium complexes:
[0034] The synthetic route of the iridium complex synthesized by the present invention is as follows figure 1 shown. On preparation method, as the productive rate of similar compound is basically in 50% (with IrCl 3 According to the traditional synthetic route (that is, the imidazophenanthroline ligand L is first synthesized, and then combined with [Ir 2 (L') 4 Cl 2 ] generates [Ir(L') 2 L] + ) optimization, the present invention has designed a new synthetic route (that is, first synthesize the precursor iridium complex Y0 of o-phenanthroline-5,6-dione, and then generate the target compound with cinnamaldehyde), and the yield (with IrCl 3 Total) reaches 80%, and the product is single, and it is easy to separate and purify, which significantly reduces the loss of precious metal iridium and the complexity of synthesis.

Embodiment 2
[0045] Example 2 The study of iridium complexes as two-photon dyes in cell mitochondria
[0046] Human lung cancer cells A549 with logarithmic growth cycle were co-stained with nuclear dye DAPI, mitochondrial dye MitoTrackerGreen FM, and iridium complex, washed 5 times with phosphate buffer solution, and imaged on a Nikon A1plus two-photon confocal microscope with a 25x objective lens (Apo LWD / 1.10 DIC N2), NDD mirror, excitation light 800nm, record fluorescence images under 420nm (blue), 515nm (green), 590nm (red) filters respectively ( figure 2 ). From figure 2 It can be seen that the distribution of the four iridium complexes synthesized by the present invention completely overlaps with the mitochondrial dyes, but does not overlap with the cell nucleus dyes, which proves that they are all cell mitochondria-specific dyes. Judging from the fluorescence intensity ratio ( F red / F Green ), when the commercial mitochondrial dye MitoTrackerGreen FM was first added and th...
