Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of chemical medicine, and in particular to a preparation method and application of a near-infrared fluorescent probe responsive to viscosity. Background Art
[0002] Cell viscosity is an important parameter that reflects the physical properties of the internal environment of cells. It plays a key role in many physiological and pathological processes, such as protein folding, enzyme activity, intracellular molecular movement, and cell signaling. Changes in cell viscosity are often associated with the occurrence and development of a variety of diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. Therefore, studying changes in cell viscosity is of great significance for understanding the mechanisms of these diseases and developing new diagnostic and therapeutic methods. Near-infrared fluorescent probes are a class of compounds that emit fluorescence in the near-infrared spectral range. Because of their low light scattering and absorption characteristics in biological tissues, they have been widely used in biomedical imaging and analysis in recent years. In particular, near-infrared fluorescent probes based on the TICT effect (twisted intramolecular charge transfer effect) have shown great potential in viscosity response and can sensitively reflect changes in viscosity of the intracellular microenvironment. Therefore, a method for preparing a near-infrared fluorescent probe that responds to viscosity and its use are disclosed for real-time monitoring of changes in intracellular viscosity. This project is supported by the Qinghai Province Applied Basic Research Project (2024-ZJ-701). Summary of the invention

The fluorescent probe of the present invention has a sensitive fluorescent response to changes in cell viscosity and is used to monitor changes in intracellular viscosity in real time.

[0007] The specific preparation method of the fluorescent probe of the present invention is as follows: dihydroisophorone (0.493mmol, 184mg) and 5-(3,5-dimethylpiperidin-1-yl)thiophene-2-carboxaldehyde (0.448mmol, 100mg) are added to a 100mL round-bottom flask, and then 1,4-dioxane (10mL), glacial acetic acid (HAC, 0.4mL) and piperidine (0.4mL) are added in sequence. The mixture is refluxed at 130°C for 2h. The mixture is cooled to room temperature, extracted with dichloromethane, and washed with brine. The combined organic phase is dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude product is purified by silica gel column chromatography (PE / EA=4 / 1).
