New cyanines were prepared by an efficient and practical route with satisfactory overall yield
from low-cost starting materials. The photophysical behavior of the cyanines was …

An efficient solid-phase synthesis of asymmetric cyanine dyes is described. Combinatorial
synthesis and spectroscopic analysis of four dyes was carried out. The yields are …

Cyanine dyes possessing carboxylic acid groups have been used in many different fields of
study. The acid groups can act as handles for bioconjugation or as metal chelators. Several …

A simple and efficient microwave-assisted synthesis of asymmetric pentamethine cyanine
dyes with various functional groups was developed, which allows high-yielding results. The …

Diverse meso-aminophenyl-, hydroxyphenyl-, and phenyl-substituted heptamethine cyanine
dyes were prepared by a modified Suzuki− Miyaura method in good yields. In addition …

Cyanine dyes, a subclass of multifunctional organic compounds, have attracted
considerable scientific attention owing to their distinctive molecular structures, exceptional …

Two hetamethine cyanine dyes suitable for labeling of biomolecules at a primary amino
group with a near‐infrared chromophore/fluorophore (λmax/(λem= 800/830 nm and 837/864 …

In this work, a novel near-infrared (NIR) dyad T-Cy with a robust Csingle bondC bond
connection between heptamethine cyanine and triphenylamine was synthesized via a …

In this review paper, some of the important fundamentals in the chemistry of cyanine dyes
were explained. This include topics like structure and resonance forms of cyanine dyes …

Conspectus Cyanine derivatives, named from the Greek word kyanos meaning dark-blue,
were discovered more than 150 years ago and remain one of the most widely used classes …
