AbstractLuminescent CdSe-ZnS core-shell quantum dot (QD) bioconjugates were used as energy donors in fluorescent resonance energy transfer (FRET) binding assays. The QDs were coated with saturating amounts of genetically engineered maltose binding protein (MBP) using a noncovalent immobilization process, and Cy3 organic dyes covalently attached at a specific sequence to MBP were used as energy acceptor molecules. Energy transfer efficiency was measured as a function of the MBP-Cy3/QD molar ratio for two different donor fluorescence emissions (different QD core sizes). Apparent donor-acceptor distances were determined from these FRET studies, and the measured distances are consistent with QD-protein conjugate dimensions previously determined from structural studies.

Two new dyes, consisting of an aromatic amine donor and dansyl acceptor connected by Diels–Alder bonds, display a switchable energy transfer. Dynamic covalent properties enable the mutual conversion of the two dyes by maleimide exchanges.

Two mono meso-functionalized [20]di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrins containing [Formula: see text]-formylphenyl and [Formula: see text]-iodophenyl groups at meso-position respectively were synthesized by condensing one equivalent of appropriate tetrapyrrane with one equivalent of [Formula: see text]-formyl benzaldehyde/[Formula: see text]-iodo benzaldehyde in CH2Cl2 under mild acid catalyzed conditions. The meso-formylphenyl and meso-iodophenyl functionalized di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrins were used to synthesize two covalently linked di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrins-BODIPY conjugates. The meso-formylphenyl-functionalized di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin was converted to corresponding meso-dipyrrolyl substituted di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin by treating with excess pyrrole under acid catalyzed conditions. In the next step, the meso-dipyrrolyl di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin was subjected to oxidation followed by BF2 complexation to afford the directly linked di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin-BODIPY conjugate. The meso-iodophenyl functionalized di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin was coupled with ethynyl-functionalized BODIPY under mild Pd(0) coupling condition to synthesize diphenylethyne-bridged di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin-BODIPY conjugate. The two conjugates were characterized by HR-MS, NMR, absorption, electrochemical, fluorescence and DFT studies. The spectral and electrochemical studies indicated that the two constituents, di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin and BODIPY units in the conjugates interact weakly and retain their individual characteristic features. DFT studies indicated a possibility of charge transfer between di-[Formula: see text]-benzihomoporphyrin and BODIPY units in conjugates.
