Abstract Nucleic acid staining dyes are important tools for the analysis and visualizing of DNA/RNA in vitro and in the cells. Nevertheless, the range of commercially accessible dyes is still rather limited, and they are often very costly. As a result, finding nontoxic, easily accessible dyes, with desirable optical characteristics remains important. Styryl dyes have recently gained popularity as potential biological staining agents with many appealing properties, including a straightforward synthesis procedure, excellent photostability, tunable fluorescence, and high fluorescence quantum yield in the presence of nucleic acid targets with low background fluorescence signals. In addition to fluorescence, styryl dyes are strongly colored and exhibit solvatochromic properties which make them useful as colorimetric stains for low-cost and rapid testing of nucleic acids. In this work, novel dicationic styryl dyes bearing quaternary ammonium groups are designed to improve binding strength and optical response with target nucleic acids which contain a negatively charged phosphate backbone. Optical properties of the newly synthesized styryl dyes have been studied in the presence and absence of nucleic acid targets with the aim to find new dyes that can sensitively and specifically change fluorescence and/or color in the presence of nucleic acid targets. The binding interaction and optical response of the dicationic styryl dyes with nucleic acid were superior to the corresponding monocationic styryl dyes. Applications of the developed dyes for colorimetric detection of DNA in vitro and imaging of cellular nucleic acids are also demonstrated. |
