Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In fluorescence bioimaging, suitable balance between hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of a fluorescent molecule is a key to the molecular design. In this study we designed and synthesized cyclodextrin-appended BODIPYs as a fluorescent probe on the basis of concept of a molecular coat. In aqueous media, the hydrophobic BODIPY unit would be captured by the CD in the cavity and in hydrophobic media the host-guest complex would be dissociated to be dissolved. The CD-appended BODIPY is soluble in solvent systems of a wide range of polarity. Spectroscopic examination suggested that the molecular-coat concept probably worked well to provide a new way to very efficient introduction of fluorescent probes into living cells.
