Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fluorescent materials, and relates to a rhodamine derivative, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Rhodamine (Rh-B) and its derivatives (hereinafter referred to as rhodamine) are among the most important organic fluorophores. Since their discovery, rhodamine has been widely used in various fields such as bioimaging, anti-counterfeiting, ion detection, toxic gas detection, and biosensing. The widespread application of rhodamine molecules is attributed to three significant characteristics: high brightness and photostability; spectral properties that are strongly dependent on molecular structure and numerous modifiable sites; and a balance between a colorless, non-fluorescent lactone form and a colored, fluorescent zwitterionic form. Although rhodamine dyes perform well in various applications, some drawbacks remain, such as low signal-to-noise ratio due to autofluorescence, weak tissue penetration, high scattering caused by excitation and emission light, single emission wavelength, photobleaching, low labeling efficiency, and poor selectivity. These limitations place higher performance demands on rhodamine fluorescent dyes. Based on the modifiability of the rhodamine molecular structure, researchers have used this to adjust its absorption and emission wavelengths, optimize its photophysical properties, and thus broaden its application range. However, a typical characteristic of rhodamine dyes is the existence of a lactone-zwitterion balance, and researchers always prefer the hydrophilic, open-ring (zwitterion) form for study, which greatly limits its application in hydrophobic environments. Therefore, it is essential to develop its closed-ring, spironolactone form for application. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this invention provides a rhodamine derivative, its preparation method, and its applications. This rhodamine derivative has properties opposite to those of traditional rhodamine dyes. The rhodamine derivative exhibits bright fluorescence in the closed-ring state and almost no fluorescence in the open-ring state, showing great promise for applications in microplastic labeling and photothermal processes.
[0004] This invention is achieved through the following technical solution: A rhodamine derivative, wherein the rhodamine derivative is one of the following compounds: .
[0005] The method for preparing the rhodamine derivative includes: 4-Diethylaminoketo acid, 3-iodophenol and methanesulfonic acid were stirred evenly and heated under reflux to react and obtain compound I-RHO; I-RHO, 1,2-dichloroethane, and phosphorus oxychloride were mixed and heated under reflux to react. After the reaction was completed, 1,2-dichloroethane and phosphorus oxychloride were removed by rotary evaporation under reduced pressure to obtain crude acyl chloride residue.

The intermediate product, potassium carbonate, indole-2-boronate pinacol ester, bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium dichloride, tetrahydrofuran, and water were mixed and heated under reflux to give the rhodamine derivative.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This invention proposes a general and simple strategy to obtain a series of rhodamine derivatives by modifying the intramolecular donor and acceptor groups and substituting spironolactone groups and N,N-diethyl groups. These rhodamine derivatives exhibit properties diametrically opposed to conventional rhodamine; they are fluorescent in their hydrophobic, closed-ring (lactone) form, but become almost non-fluorescent when converted to the open-ring form, enabling their application in hydrophobic environments. These rhodamine derivatives overcome the quenching caused by aggregation in traditional rhodamine, achieving a fluorescence quantum yield of nearly 20% in the solid state. Due to their unique properties, the rhodamine dyes of this invention hold great promise for applications in sensing, polymer labeling, and photothermal conversion. Attached Figure Description

After 1 minute, the membrane was removed from the laser lamp, and the temperature change of the membrane was monitored for another 1 minute after removal.
[0125] Depend on Figure 40 a) It can be seen that when irradiated with a 638 nm laser, the temperature of the MOS-Rh-In-SEB film increases more significantly with the increase of the MOS-Rh-In ratio, and the photothermal effect becomes more pronounced. From Figure 40a) It can be seen that the temperature of the 1.5% MOS-Rh-In-SEBS film under irradiation with 0.6 W laser light at 450 nm, 520 nm, and 638 nm varies with time. The temperature increase is highest under 450 nm laser irradiation, while the temperature changes are approximately the same under 520 nm and 638 nm laser irradiation. Since the melting point of SEBS is around 120℃, photothermal experiments were conducted on the 3% MOS-Rh-In-SEBS film at 520 nm and 638 nm; photothermal experiments were conducted on the 1.5% MOS-Rh-In-SEBS film at 450 nm. Figure 41 a) It can be seen that as the 450 nm laser power increases, the maximum temperature reached by the 1.5% MOS-Rh-In-SEBS film also increases. Figure 41 (b) It can be seen that with the increase of laser power at 520 nm and 638 nm, the maximum temperature reached by the 3% MOS-Rh-In-SEBS film also increases. The results indicate that the photothermal effect of the MOS-Rh-In-SEBS film is more significant with the increase of laser power.
[0126] This invention uses Rhodamine B as the parent compound and synthesizes a series of novel Rhodamine derivatives with completely altered properties by substituting spironolactone and N,N-diethyl. These molecules exhibit bright fluorescence in the lactone (closed-ring) state and almost no fluorescence in the zwitterionic (open-ring) state. The lactone-state Rhodamine derivatives possess an exceptionally large Stokes shift (>280 nm), while the zwitterionic Rhodamine derivatives exhibit relatively long absorption (>590 nm). The hydrophobic, closed-ring, spironolactone Rhodamine derivatives have relatively short absorption and bright fluorescence, making them suitable for microplastic labeling. The open-ring, zwitterionic Rhodamine derivatives exhibit longer absorption and excellent photothermal effects. Therefore, these Rhodamine derivatives have great potential in microplastic labeling and photothermal applications.
