Abstract
The synthesis of a conjugate molecule between an unusual red-fluorescent diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) unit and a bis-phosphonate (BP) precursor by a click-chemistry strategy to target bone tissue and monitor the interaction is reported. After thorough investigation, conjugation through a triazole unit between a γ-azido rather than a β-azido BP and an alkyne-functionalized DPP fluorophore group turned out to be the winning strategy. Visualization of the DPP-BP conjugate on osteoclasts and specific antiresorption activity were successfully demonstrated.
