Aggregation-Enhanced Emission of Fluorescent-Gemini Surfactants with High Photostability for Cell-Membrane Imaging

In situ studies of the aggregation behavior of traditional surfactants at the liquid interface using spectroscopic methods are often significantly affected by the large volume of fluorescent groups, such as pyrene. Fluorescent-Gemini surfactants provide an ideal solution since the fluorescent block can be designed as a spacer or a tail. In this work, we report the synthesis of a new fluorescent-Gemini surfactant with a rigid spacer (referred to as 8-TBT-8). The aggregation behavior and application in cell-membrane imaging were investigated. The unique aggregation behavior in an organic solvent and aqueous solution was studied using spectroscopy. UV–vis and photoluminescence spectra of 8-TBT-8 revealed that this new fluorescent surfactant forms H aggregates in organic solution to give blue emission, whereas it forms J aggregates in aqueous solution to give green fluorescence under UV light. In addition, the fluorescence intensity of 8-TBT-8 increases abruptly at concentrations higher than the critical micellization concentration. Good photostability and a unique structure make the synthesized Gemini surfactant very suitable for membrane imaging.

Blue-light-emitting cationic water-soluble polyfluorene derivatives with tunable quaternization degree

The design, synthesis and characterization of novel blue emission cationic water-soluble conjugated polymers based on the polyfluorene (PF) derivatives with amino-terminal groups are described. Water solubility was realized through quaternization of the amino group, which permits a control of the cationic degree, which in turn determines the solubility of the polymers in organic solvents and water. Better solubility in polar solvents was accompanied by a spectral blue shift for polymers with a higher quaternization degree. In the presence of a trace amount of some weak organic acids, the neutral polymer also showed a high solubility in water. Instead of forming a quaternized salt, the 1H NMR spectra indicated that only electrostatic interaction existed between the acid and the amino-terminal groups, which increased the affinity of the polymers with those polar solvents. In addition to the special solubility, good thermal stability as well as the intense fluorescence both in solutions and as films endows this series of materials with the status of most attractive candidates as the transporting/emitting layer in multilayer device fabrication.
