Abstract
5,10-Dimethyl-5,10-dihydrophenazine (MP) is utilized as an effective auxochrome, leveraging its highly conjugated structure to enhance the photophysical and photochemical properties of fluorophores. As illustrated in the difluoride-boron complex and coumarin fluorophores, the extensive conjugation of MP auxochrome substantially red-shifts the absorption/emission wavelengths and increases Stokes shift due to the intensified intramolecular charge transfer effect; notably, MP auxochrome effectively improves fluorophores' photostability by mitigating photooxidative reactions through enhanced electron density delocalization on nitrogen atoms and increased ionization potential. Importantly, MP-based fluorophores demonstrate applicability in stimulated emission depletion nanomicroscopy, showcasing their utility in lipid droplet labeling.
