Synthesis and luminescence properties of new red-shifted absorption lanthanide(III) chelates suitable for peptide and protein labelling
2011
The synthesis and photo-physical properties of an original bis-pyridinylpyrazine chromophore efficiently sensitising europium(III) and samarium(III) are described. The corresponding lanthanide(III) complexes display in aqueous solutions a maximum excitation wavelength which is significantly red-shifted compared to the usual terpyridine-based chelates, and a valuable luminescence brightness above 2 000 dm3 mol−1 cm−1 at 345 nm was obtained with a europium(III) derivative. Further functionalisation with three different bioconjugatable handles was also investigated and their ability to efficiently label a model hexapeptide was evaluated and compared. Finally, the best bioconjugatable europium(III) chelate was used in representative labelling experiments involving monoclonal antibodies and the luminescence features of the corresponding bioconjugates remained satisfactory.
