Levitz, Andrew published the artcileSynthesis and effect of heterocycle modification on the spectroscopic properties of a series of unsymmetrical trimethine cyanine dyes, Name: Sodium 3-bromopropane-1-sulfonate, the publication is Dyes and Pigments (2014), 238-249, database is CAplus.
Carbocyanine dyes are a class of organic compounds that contain two heterocycles that act as electron donors and acceptors connected by a conjugated methine bridge. Herein the synthesis of a series of 16 novel unsym. trimethine cyanine dyes is reported. Their structures were characterized by various spectroscopic techniques, and their optical properties were measured. Absorption maxima of the dyes were calculated using the time-dependent d.-functional theory method and the computational absorption maxima are consistent with the exptl. data. The addition of electron withdrawing substituents such as halogens on the heterocycle gave more favorable optical properties such as higher quantum yield and molar absorptivity. The aggregation of these cyanine dyes was studied and compared to a similar series of sym. cyanine dyes. It was determined that the heterocycle has more effect on aggregation than the side chain and a dye with two different heterocycles will aggregate less than a dye with the same heterocycle. The dyes were also investigated for Lipinski Rule violations as their use is becoming more prevalent for in vivo applications.
