Near-Infrared Fluorescent pH-Sensitive Probes via Unexpected Barbituric Acid Mediated Synthesis
摘要:
Novel near-infrared pyrimidine-fused pH fluorescent probes were prepared by an unusual barbiturate-mediated debenzoindolation and subsequent heteroannulation. A plausible mechanistic pathway Is proposed, and the final structures were further elucidated by 2D-NMR. All new compounds are highly fluorescent In the near-infrared region and possess excellent spectral sensitivities to environmental pH changes.
