Novel small-molecular analogues of the green fluorescence protein (GFP) chromophore were synthesised to expand and improve this fluorophore family and deepen the understanding of their fluorescence mechanism. The introduction of specific substituents and manipulation of the molecular structure successfully enhanced fluorescence emission intensity and altered spectral properties.
Novel small-molecular analogues the green fluorescence protein (GFP) chromophore were synthesised to expand and improve this fluorophore family and to deepen the understanding of their fluorescence mechanism. The introduction of an aminophenyl substituent and the repositioning of the hydroxyl group, to enable strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding, not only enhanced fluorescence emission but also resulted in an increased Stokes shift and a considerable redshift. Experimental and computational results described dual fluorescence involving both excited-state intramolecular proton transfer and internal charge transfer (ESIPT-ICT) mechanisms. Screening of the pH and the solvent medium revealed a complicated equilibrium involving hydrogen bonding, protonation and deprotonation that influences the absorption and emission spectra. Further improvement of the photophysical properties via the systematic variation of dialkylamino substituents at a single position of the chromophore led to a two-orders of magnitude enhancement in the quantum yields. In addition, the novel compounds also have significant two-photon absorption, which widens the possibilities for applications in the field of bioimaging.
