摘要
荧光成像由于其高灵敏度和非侵入性,已逐渐成为可视化不同种类生物目标的重要技术。由于高的发射效率和在生物体内良好的生物相容性,通过超分子方法来修饰聚集诱导发射荧光团已变得越发重要。主客体相互作用由于良好的选择性和环境响应性,在发展超分子材料方面扮演重要角色。柱芳烃,作为新一代大环主体,已经被广泛地研究。本文基于单官能团化柱[5]芳烃和四苯基乙烯衍生物构筑了一个主客体包合物,利用主客体相互作用限制四苯基乙烯的旋转,导致其荧光增强,进一步应用于细胞成像研究。
Fluorescence imaging has appeared as a significant technology for visualizing diverse biological targets. Supramolecular methods to modify AIE fluorogens are highly desirable for high emission efficiency and good biocompatibility. As a new generation of macrocyclic host, pillar[n]arenes, have been extensively studied. Herein, we prepared a host–guest inclusion complex based on a monofunctionalized pillar[5]arene and a tetraphenylethene derivative by the utilization of host–guest interactions to restrict the rotations process of AIE molecules, resulting in the enhanced emission of the tetraphenylethene-based guest, which was applied in cell imaging.
