Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photothermal therapy agent preparation, and specifically relates to a perylene monoimide-based NIR-II fluorescent dye, nanoparticles, and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Cancer is one of the major diseases that seriously endanger human health. Traditional cancer treatments, including radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgery, are often accompanied by extensive side effects. Therefore, research on non-invasive and non-invasive treatments has always been a hot topic in medical-related fields. Phototherapy has been widely used in cancer tumors in recent years due to its advantages such as high safety and high selectivity. During phototherapy, non-toxic phototherapeutic agents can be activated under light to selectively kill cancer cells without causing serious side effects. Through the careful design of phototherapeutic agents and good control of light exposure to lesions (such as tumor tissue), phototherapeutic agents can reduce the side effects of traditional chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Photothermal therapy (PTT), as a type of phototherapy, relies on nanomaterials with photothermal effect to convert light into heat to kill cancer cells, which can effectively avoid side effects on normal cells.
[0003] Accurate imaging diagnosis of cancer sites is of great significance for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Traditional near-infrared region I (NIR-I, 650-900 nm) fluorescence imaging technology has shortcomings such as low tissue penetration depth, low spatial resolution and low signal-to-noise ratio. In order to meet this challenge, in the past decade, people have developed a new imaging method that uses near-infrared region II fluorescence (NIR-II, 1000-1700 nm) imaging technology to achieve deeper tissue penetration, higher resolution and low background noise. Among them, the NIR-II region can be divided into: NIR-IIa' (1000-1300 nm), NIR-IIa (1300-1400 nm), NIR-IIb (1500-1700 nm), and the imaging resolution quality increases with increasing wavelength. The photothermal therapy drugs that have been reported so far still have problems such as complex synthesis, absorption wavelength in the NIR-I region, imaging wavelength only in the NIR-IIa' region, and unsatisfactory treatment effect. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a perylene monoimide-based NIR-II fluorescent dye, nanoparticles, and a preparation method and application thereof.
[0005] The perylene monoimide-based NIR-II fluorescent dye is composed of two parts: perylene monoimide and a polymethine skeleton, and its structural formula is as follows: .
[0006] The preparation method of the perylene monoimide-based NIR-II fluorescent dye is as follows: (1) dissolving a perylene monoimide compound and liquid bromine in a molar ratio of 1:1-2 in chloroform, and reacting them in a sealed container under ice bath conditions for 2-5 hours; extracting with an aqueous solution of NaOH, and drying the organic phase to obtain a bromoperylene monoimide Py-1; (2) Py-1, tert-butyl carbazate, sodium tert-butoxide, tri(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium and 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphine)-1,1'-binaphthyl in a molar ratio of 1:1-1.5:4-4.5:0.1-0.2:0.2-0.4 are dissolved in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran, and reacted at 70-90°C for 10-20 hours under nitrogen protection; after the reaction is completed, the reaction is cooled to room temperature, and the organic solvent is removed by vacuum distillation.

The mixture is reacted at 100-140°C for 12-24 hours under nitrogen protection, precipitated and washed with methyl tert-butyl ether, and separated and purified by column chromatography to obtain a perylene monoimide NIR-II fluorescent dye.
[0007] The preparation method of the perylene monoimide NIR-II fluorescent dye nanoparticles is as follows: dissolving the perylene monoimide NIR-II fluorescent dye and an anticancer drug in DMF to obtain a mixed solution; dissolving an amphiphilic polymer in deionized water, adding the mixed solution under ultrasonic conditions, and continuing ultrasonication for 3-10 minutes; dialyzing to remove the organic solvent, and ultrafiltration and concentration to obtain nanoparticles.
[0008] The anticancer drug is osimertinib.

[0026] Example 1 (1) Dissolve perylene monoimide (1.0 g, 2.08 mmol) in 200 mL of chloroform, then add 1.5 mL of liquid bromine, seal the reaction system to prevent leakage of liquid bromine, and place the reaction bottle in an ice-water bath for 3 hours. Add NaOH aqueous solution for extraction, separate the organic phase and the aqueous phase, and spin dry the organic phase to obtain an orange-red solid bromoperylene monoimide compound Py-1. The reaction yield is 99%.
[0027] (2) Py-1 (0.56 g, 1 mmol), tert-butyl carbazate (0.158 g, 1.2 mmol), sodium tert-butoxide (0.81 g, 4.1 mmol), tris(dibenzylideneacetone)dipalladium (0.10 g, 0.11 mmol) and 2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphine)-1,1'-binaphthyl (0.15 g, 0.24 mmol) were dissolved in 10 mL of anhydrous tetrahydrofuran and reacted at 80 °C for 16 hours under nitrogen protection. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was cooled to room temperature and the organic solvent was removed by vacuum distillation to obtain a crude product as a purple solid. The crude product was separated and purified by chromatography to obtain a Boc-protected perylene monoimide derivative Py-2 (0.36 g, 50%).
[0028] (3) Py-2 (0.59 g, 1 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous dichloromethane, and 8 mmol of trifluoroacetic acid was slowly added dropwise under ice bath conditions. After the addition was completed, the mixture was reacted at room temperature for 2 hours. Saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution was added to the reaction solution for extraction. After the organic phase was dried, the crude product was separated by column chromatography to obtain hydrazone-substituted perylene monoimide Py-3 (0.31 g, 50%).
[0029] (4) Py-3 (0.876 g, 1.76 mmol) was dissolved in 8 mL of glacial acetic acid, and then 4.4 mmol of 3-methyl-2-butanone was added, and then the temperature was slowly raised to 120°C for 12 hours. After the reaction was completed, the reaction solution was precipitated with saturated brine, filtered, and the precipitate was washed with deionized water, filtered and vacuum dried to obtain a red solid. The crude product was separated and purified by chromatography to obtain perylene monoimide and indoline Py-4 (0.45 g, 51%).

The mixture was reacted at 120 °C for 12 hours under nitrogen protection. The mixture was cooled to room temperature, precipitated with methyl tert-butyl ether, washed several times, and dried. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography to obtain Py1053 (0.54 g, 37%). Example

[0033] Application Example 1 The dichloroethane solution of Py1053 was prepared, and the NIR-II dye IR26 (quantum efficiency in dichloroethane is 0.05%) was used as the standard. Using IR26 as the standard, the Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG was calculated by the formula 2000 The fluorescence quantum yield of -GE11 is 1.7%.
[0034] Application Example 2 Preparation of different concentrations of Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG 2000 -GE11 aqueous solution (1 mL) was illuminated using a 1064 nm laser (1.0 W / cm 2 ) for irradiation, and the temperature at different time points was recorded by an infrared camera. The photothermal calculation formula was used to calculate the temperature of Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG 2000 -GE11 has a photothermal conversion efficiency of 40.3%.
[0035] Application Example 3 Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG 2000-GE11 medium was co-cultured with NCl-H1975 cells for 24 hours. The medium was replaced with medium containing 10% CCK-8 and incubated for another 0.5 to 2 hours. Subsequently, the relative cell activity was measured using a microplate reader to test the Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG 2000 Furthermore, the medium containing Pcy / Osi@GE11 was co-cultured with cells in a 96-well plate for 12 h, followed by irradiation with a 1064 nm laser (1.0 W / cm 2 ) irradiated for 10 minutes. The same CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell activity and test Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG 2000 -GE11 cell killing effect. At the same time, calcein-propidium iodide cell death and viability staining was used to further verify Py1053 / Osi@DSPE-PEG 2000 -Cell-killing effect of GE11.
