Synthesis and Characterization of Water-Soluble Polythiophene Derivatives for Cell Imaging

Abstract: In this work, four water-soluble polythiophene derivatives (PT, PT-DDA, PT-ADA, and PT-ADA-PPR) with different pendant moieties were synthesized via oxidative copolymerization by FeCl3. By increasing the hydrophobic ability of side chain moieties, there is a gradually blue shift for the maximum absorption wavelength and red shift for the maximum emission wavelength, a reducing trend for fluorescence quantum yields, a growing trend for Stokes shift, and an increasing trend for the mean sizes in the order of PT,… Show more

“…The above result suggests that WSPTs exhibit lower cytotoxicity than metal/semiconducting quantum dots and organic fluorescent dyes (Fig. ) . The low cytotoxicity and good photostability of WSPTs make them a better choice for lysosome‐specific imaging materials and localization.…”

“…The optical and electronic interplay of these molecular moieties is, however, more widely being taken advantage of in the field of optoelectronics and photovoltaics. 122,123 Examples of polymeric thiophene-porphyrin conjugates and complexes can be found in literature, where the interactions of these structural moieties give rise to optical readouts for detecting bacteria 124 and eukaryotic cells 125 , or where such compounds are used for photodynamic inactivation of bacteria 126 and fungi 127 .…”
