Fluorescent Cyanine Dye J-Aggregates in the Fluorous Phase

Fluorescent Cyanine Dye J-Aggregates in the Fluorous Phase
Ellen M. Sletten, Wei Cao
We present a perfluorocarbon-hydrocarbon amphiphilic cyanine dye that J-aggregates in fluorous solvent. J-Aggregation is a special type of fluorophore aggregation, affording enhanced photophysical properties. Cyanine dyes are excellent J-aggregators in water but, until now, cyanine J-aggregates have not been translated to nonaqueous media. The fluorous phase J-aggregate displays enhanced photostability and processability compared to analogous aqueous aggregates.
