Abstract:
A two‐stage mediated near‐infrared (NIR) emissive supramolecular assembly for lysosome‐targeted cell imaging is presented. 4,4′‐Anthracene‐9,10‐diylbis(ethene‐2,1‐diyl))bis(1‐ethylpyridin‐1‐ium) bromide (ENDT) was synthesized as an organic dye with weak fluorescence emission at 625 nm. When ENDT complexes with cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8] ), this binary supramolecular complex assembles into nanorods with a near‐infrared fluorescence emission (655 nm) and fluorescence enhancement as the first stage. Such supramolecular complexes interact with lower‐rim dodecyl‐modified sulfonatocalix[4]arene (SC4AD) to form nanoparticles for further fluorescence enhancement as the second stage. Furthermore, based on a co‐staining experiment with LysoTracker Blue, such nanoparticles can be applied in NIR lysosome‐targeted cell imaging.
