- Abstract
In this contribution we report on a novel approach towards luminescent light-responsive ligands. To this end, cyanostilbene- guanidiniocarbonyl-pyrrole hybrids were designed and investigated. Merging of a luminophore with a supramolecular bioactive ligand bears numerous advantages by overcoming the typical drawbacks of drug-labelling, influencing the overall performance of the active species by attachment of a large luminophore. Here we were able to establish a simple and easily accessible synthesis route to different cyanostyryl-guanidininiocarbonyl-pyrrole (CGCP) derivatives. These compounds were investigated regarding their light-responsive double bond isomerisation, their molecular structures in single crystals by means of X-ray diffractometry, their emission properties by state of the art photophysical characterisation as well as bioimaging and assessment of cell toxicity., (© 2024 The Author(s).
