Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of functionalized porphyrin derivative preparation technology, specifically to a two-photon two-state luminescent porphyrin fluorescent dye and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Porphyrins are red-light dyes with excellent photothermal stability, high Stokes shift, and red light emission, making them widely applicable in photodynamic therapy, optoelectronic devices, fluorescence analysis, photoelectrocatalysis, and supramolecular chemistry. Therefore, the synthesis of porphyrins and their derivatives has attracted considerable attention from researchers.
[0003] However, in practical applications, most porphyrins currently suffer from two major problems that significantly limit their application. First, although porphyrins exhibit relatively long red light emission, their excitation wavelength is very short, around 420 nm, even shorter than the excitation wavelength of common green-emitting fluorescent dyes. In biomedical applications, short-wavelength excitation not only causes significant photodamage and background fluorescence interference but also has limited penetration depth. Second, there is the aggregation-induced quenching (ACQ) problem. Porphyrin fluorescence emission is limited to dilute solutions. When the porphyrin concentration is high or it becomes solid, the strong intermolecular π-π interactions cause a significant decrease or quenching of fluorescence. In applications that rely on fluorescence for analysis and diagnosis (such as fluorescence sensing and photodynamic therapy), changes in the fluorescence signal can introduce significant deviations, affecting accuracy.
[0004] Currently, researchers have successively discovered and designed various two-photon and two-state luminescent fluorescent dyes. Among them, two-photon fluorescent (TPF) dyes are dyes that generate short-wavelength emission through long-wavelength excitation, also known as anti-Stokes fluorescent dyes. Their excitation range is in the near-infrared region, and they have advantages such as low photodamage, low background fluorescence interference, and strong tissue penetration. On the other hand, two-state luminescent (DSE) dyes have little or no ACQ effect and can emit fluorescence in both solution and solid states. Their fluorescence emission is no longer limited by the state and can better maintain the continuity and stability of the fluorescence signal.
[0005] Based on this, this application develops new porphyrin dyes based on two-photon and two-state luminescence properties to improve the application performance of porphyrins. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This application provides a two-photon, two-state luminescent porphyrin fluorescent dye and its preparation method, aiming to solve the problems of large photodamage, large background fluorescence interference, and limited penetration depth caused by the short excitation wavelength of porphyrin fluorescent dyes in the prior art, as well as poor continuity and low accuracy of fluorescence signals caused by aggregation-induced quenching.

[0073] Specifically, p-hydroxybenzaldehyde and benzaldehyde are added to propionic acid and heated to reflux. Then, pyrrole is slowly added dropwise to the propionic acid solution and refluxed at 130-150℃ for 1-2 hours. The reaction solution is then distilled under reduced pressure to remove propionic acid.

[0086]
[0087] In this application, a two-photon two-state luminescent porphyrin fluorescent dye is synthesized by reacting a porphyrin containing a salicylaldehyde structure with an aromatic amine in a solvent via a Schiff base reaction.

After the reaction was complete, the mixed solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the mixture was recrystallized from ethanol and dried under vacuum to obtain a purple porphyrin fluorescent dye in 73.7% yield.
[0127] The porphyrin fluorescent dyes were characterized by NMR and mass spectrometry, and the results are as follows:
[0128] 1 H NMR (400MHz, CD2Cl2) δ13.85(s,1H),9.04(s,1H),8.91(d,J=24.8Hz,16H),8.43(d,J=9.7Hz,2H),8.32(d ,J=9.1Hz,2H),8.23(d,J=4.5Hz,12H),7.79(s,21H),-2.79(d,J=18.7Hz,4H).HR-MS(m / z):1268.4766(MH + (calcd 1268.4843).
[0129] Mass spectrometry analysis was performed on porphyrin fluorescent dye 1 prepared in Example 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2 prepared in Example 3, and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3 prepared in Example 5. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The images show the spectra of porphyrin fluorescent dye 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2, and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3, respectively. From... Figures 1-3 It can be seen that the target porphyrin fluorescent dye was successfully synthesized in Examples 1, 3 and 5.
[0130] The proton NMR spectra of porphyrin fluorescent dyes 1, 2, and 3 were analyzed. Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The figures show the 1H NMR spectra of porphyrin fluorescent dyes 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 It can be seen that the target porphyrin fluorescent dye was successfully synthesized in Examples 1, 3 and 5.
[0131] SEM tests were performed on porphyrin fluorescent dye 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2, and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3, respectively. Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 9The images show SEM images of porphyrin fluorescent dye 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2, and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3, respectively. Figure 7 It can be seen that porphyrin fluorescent dye 1 has a strip-like parallel stacked morphology; from Figure 8 It can be seen that porphyrin fluorescent dye 2 has a fine, irregularly stacked morphology; from Figure 9 It can be seen that porphyrin fluorescent dye 3 exhibits a plate-like stacked morphology. These three morphologies are completely different from the π-π close-packing of typical ACQ-effect porphyrins such as tetraphenylporphyrin, which allows porphyrin fluorescent dyes 1-3 to largely avoid the ACQ effect caused by π-π interactions and produce obvious solid-state fluorescence.
[0132] Porphyrin fluorescent dye 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2, and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3 were subjected to solution and solid fluorescence spectra tests, respectively. The test parameters were: Ex = 420 nm, slit width 5-5 nm, and scanning range 600-800 nm. Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 The images show the solution and solid fluorescence spectra of porphyrin fluorescent dyes 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 It can be seen that porphyrin fluorescent dye 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2 and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3 all have strong fluorescence emission in solution, with a maximum emission wavelength of about 655 nm; at the same time, the three porphyrin fluorescent dyes also have strong fluorescence emission in the solid state, and the fluorescence spectrum of the solid state shows a significant red shift compared to the fluorescence spectrum of the solution, with a maximum emission wavelength of about 725 nm, which proves that the three dyes have obvious DSE performance.
[0133] Two-photon fluorescence spectra of porphyrin fluorescent dye 1, porphyrin fluorescent dye 2, and porphyrin fluorescent dye 3 were performed. The test parameters were: 780nm, 920nm, and 1030nm femtosecond lasers, Ex = 780nm, slit width: 1Au, and scanning wavelength range: 600-750nm. Figure 13 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 The images show the two-photon fluorescence spectra of porphyrin fluorescent dyes 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Figure 13 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 It is known that all three porphyrin fluorescent dyes have strong two-photon fluorescence emission, and their emission wavelength is the same as that of single-photon (Ex = 420 nm) emission spectrum. The difference is that the two-photon excitation wavelength is 780 nm, which makes the excitation and emission of porphyrin in the near-infrared region, and its application performance is greatly improved.
