Photophysical properties of rhodamine isomers: A two-photon excited fluorescent sensor for trivalent chromium cation (Cr)

We introduce a new rhodamine-based fluorescent chemosensor, FD8 which exhibits a distinct two-photon excited fluorescence (TPEF) on/off characteristic upon binding Cr³⁺ ions. By coordination with metal cation, conformation of FD8 changes from spirocyclic to open-ring, resulting in remarkable enhancement of absorption and fluorescence both in one- and two-photon excitations. As a result, a 29-fold enhancement of two-photon excited fluorescent intensity was observed when 10 eq. Cr³⁺ was added to the FD8 solution. The detection limit of Cr³⁺ cation concentration down to 1 μM (0.01 eq. of FD8) was achieved under our experimental condition. Besides the excitation within ultraviolet regime by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) mechanism, the TPEF on/off behavior further extends the excitation to near infrared regime (the biological optimal window of 700-1200 nm), and shows more effective sensitivity. The broad excitation wavelength, on/off fluorescence and high selectivity to Cr³⁺ enable FD8 to be a powerful Cr³⁺ cation sensor with potential application, especially in biological detection. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report about two-photon fluorescent sensor for Cr³⁺ ions.

Moreover, these probes are capable of monitoring calcium waves at a depth of 120-170 microm in live tissues for 1100-4000 s using two-photon microscopy with no artifacts of photobleaching.

Synthesis, fluorescence, and two-photon absorption of bidentate phosphane oxide derivatives: complexation with pb(2+) and cd(2+) cations

A series of fluorescent phosphane oxide derivatives based on diphenylphosphanoethane (DPPE) and diphenylphosphanomethane (DPPM) skeletons has been prepared by means of Grignard reactions and Sonogashira cross-couplings. The photophysical properties and the linear and nonlinear spectra of these compounds have been investigated. An edge-to-face conformation resulting in the formation of an excimer was confirmed by fluorescence lifetime measurements of these multichromophoric derivatives. Upon complexation with heavy metal ions such as Pb2+ and Cd2+, a red shift of the one- and two-photon excitation spectra was observed in the absorption and emission spectra. Furthermore, enhancement of the electron-withdrawing character of the phosphane oxide resulted in a significant enhancement of the two-photon absorption cross-section, leading to the first biphotonic Cd2+ sensors combining high affinity for Cd2+, large two-photon absorption cross-sections, and significant enhancement of the two-photon excited fluorescence in the presence of the cation. Such derivatives are highly promising for incorporation into devices for the detection of heavy metal ions in water and effluents.
