Aarhus sensor green: A fluorescent probe for singlet oxygen

A tetrafluoro-substituted fluorescein derivative covalently linked to a 9,10-diphenyl anthracene moiety has been synthesized, and its photophysical properties have been characterized. This compound, denoted Aarhus Sensor Green (ASG), has distinct advantages for use as a fluorescent probe for singlet molecular oxygen, O2(a1δg). In the least, ASG overcomes several limitations inherent to the use of the related commercially available product called Singlet Oxygen Sensor Green (SOSG). The functional behavior of both ASG and SOSG derives from the fact that these weakly fluorescent compounds rapidly react with singlet oxygen via a π2 + π4 cycloaddition to irreversibly yield a highly fluorescent endoperoxide. The principal advantage of ASG over SOSG is that, at physiological pH values, both ASG and the ASG endoperoxide (ASG-EP) do not themselves photosensitize the production of singlet oxygen. As such, ASG better fits the requirement of being a benign probe. Although ASG readily enters a mammalian cell (i.e., HeLa) and responds to the presence of intracellular singlet oxygen, its behavior in this arguably complicated environment requires further investigation.

The family of dyes of the invention are fluoresceins and rhodols that are directly substituted on one or more aromatic carbons by fluorine. These fluorine-substituted fluorescent dyes possess greater photostability and have lower sensitivity to pH changes in the physiological range of 6-8 than do non-fluorinated dyes, exhibit less quenching when conjugated to a substance, and possess additional advantages. The dyes of the invention are useful as detectable tracers and for preparing conjugates of organic and inorganic substances.

The present invention comprises 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxycoumarins and derivatives of 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxycoumarins, including reactive dyes, dye-conjugates and enzyme substrates. These fluorine-substituted fluorescent dyes typically possess greater photostability and lower pH sensitivity in the physiological pH range than their nonfluorinated analogs, exhibit less fluorescence quenching when conjugated to a substance, possess absorption and emission spectra that closely match those of their nonfluorinated analogs, and also exhibit higher quantum yields than their nonfluorinated analogs.

Several novel fluorinated fluoresceins (Oregon Green dyes) were prepared by the reaction of fluororesorcinols with phthalic anhydride and its derivatives. A novel regiospecific synthesis of fluororesorcinols was key to the successful synthesis of these new fluorophores. (Polyfluoro)- nitrobenzenes were reacted with 2 equiv of sodium methoxide followed by reduction, hydrodediazoniation, and demethylation, giving the first straightforward synthesis of 2-fluororesorcinol, 4-fluororesorcinol, 2,4- difluororesorcinol, and 2,4,5-trifluororesorcinol. These fluorinated fluoresceins have higher photostability and ionize at a lower pH (pK(a) = 3.3-6.1) than fluorescein (pK(a) = 6.5). Some of the fluorinated fluoresceins have very high quantum yields (0.85-0.97), which, in combination with their lower pK(a)s and high photostability, makes them superior fluorescent dyes for use as reporter molecules in biological systems.
