Near infrared emission cyanine fluorescent dye capable of being used for detecting physiological viscosity and preparation method thereof

Near infrared emission cyanine fluorescent dye capable of being used for detecting physiological viscosity and a preparation method thereof are disclosed. The near infrared emission cyanine fluorescent dye is synthesized by changing a methine chain design in a structure of classical cyanine dye, and a synthesis method is safe and simple. In a pure water system, Stokes displacement exceeds 90 nm, the shortcoming that the Stokes displacement of traditional cyanine dye results in self-quenching is greatly improved, and the maximum emission wavelength (670 nm) is located in a near-infrared regionand is suitable for cell imaging. The fluorescence intensity of the dye is significantly enhanced with increasing viscosity, and the dye has high selectivity and sensitivity to viscosity. In cell imaging experiments, the dye exhibits better water solubility, biocompatibility, and less biotoxicity, can perform targeting positioning on subcellular organelle mitochondria, and detects changes of the viscosity in the mitochondria. In summary, the invention provides a design and synthesis method for novel near-infrared emission cyanine dye which can be used for detecting the physiological viscosity.
