Problems solved by technology

One disadvantage of these sensors is that the working range is shifted to the acidic side because of the low pKa of the indicator amino group.
However, this thereby limits the applicability of the dyes described in WO 2005 / 098 at a physiological pH (e.g pH 6-7), especially in biological systems.
These prior art compounds have been found by us to have potentially inconvenient instability in solution.

Synthesis of pH Sensor 104 Having the Methoxy pKa-Enhancing Group (Scheme 101)

[0642]

[0643]Compound 104. To a stirred suspension of ketone 101 (94 mg, 0.333 mmol) in dry chloroform (10 mL), oxalyl chloride (30 μL, 0.33 mmol) was added upon cooling to 0-5° C. The resulted red solution was stirred for 1 h, then N,N-diethyl-m-anisidine (60 mg, 0.33 mmol) was added. The reaction was allowed to warm to rt, stirred for 16 h and diluted with CHCl3 (60 mL).

[0644]Chloroform solution was shaken with sat. NaHCO3 (40 mL) until water layer turned almost colorless. The organic layer was washed with sat. NaHCO3 (20 mL) and extracted with 10% HCl (2×30 mL). The combined acid extract was washed with CHCl3 (2×15 mL; discarded), the aqueous solution was saturated with sodium acetate and extracted with CHCl3 (4×30 mL). The extract was washed with brine (30 mL), and evaporated. The crude product was purified by chromatography on silica gel column (2×40 cm bed, packed with 10% MeOH and 1% AcOH in CHCl3) e...

[0645]

[0646](2,5-Dimethoxyphenyl)acetamide (106). To a stirred solution of 2,5-dimethoxyaniline (105) (1.00 g, 6.52 mmol) and DIEA (1.71 mL, 9.80 mmol) in CHCl3 (20 mL) was added acetic anhydride (0.93 mL, 9.8 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred for 1.5 h, washed with water (50 mL), 5% HCl (50 mL), brine (50 mL), dried over Na2SO4, and evaporated to give acetate 106 (1.33 g, 100%) as a dark oil.

The mixture was allowed to warm to rt and stirred under reflux for 16 h. The mixture was cooled to 0° C. and carefully decomposed with MeOH (40 mL), and then the mixture was heated to reflux and stirred for 1 h. Upon cooling, the solution was concentrated a...

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application Nos. 60 / 863,318, filed 27 Oct. 2006 and 60 / 940,323, filed 25 May 2007, both of which are incorporated by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]Novel pH sensitive fluorescent dyes and assays for use in a variety of applications including monitoring of intracellular processes are disclosed.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]pH sensitive fluorescent dyes employed in biological research and medical diagnostics belong to two groups, each distinguished by the origin of fluorescent responses to changes in pH. The first group includes compounds having fluorescence controlled by the ionization of phenolic hydroxyl groups in a fluorophore. Examples include fluorescein, carboxyfluorescein, Oregon Green®, SNARF®, SNAFL®, and HPTS indicators.[0004]U.S. Patent Publication No. 2006 / 0051874 (M. W. Reed, et al) describes fluorescein-like structures incorporated into a fluorescent detector for ...
