Abstract

9-cyanopyronin is a promising scaffold that exploits resonance Raman enhancement to enable sensitive, highly multiplexed biological imaging. Here, we developed cyano-Hydrol Green (CN-HG) derivatives as resonance Raman scaffolds to expand the color palette of 9-cyanopyronins. CN-HG derivatives exhibit sufficiently long wavelength absorption to produce strong resonance Raman enhancement for near-infrared (NIR) excitation, and their nitrile peaks are shifted to a lower frequency than those of 9-cyanopyronins. The fluorescence of CN-HG derivatives is strongly quenched due to the lack of the 10th atom, unlike pyronin derivatives, and this enabled us to detect spontaneous Raman spectra with high signal-to-noise ratios. CN-HG derivatives are powerful candidates for high performance vibrational imaging.
