Novel Pyrazine-Bridged D-A-D Type Charge Neutral Probe for Membrane Permeable Long-Term Live Cell Imaging

A novel donor–acceptor–donor (D-A-D) type compound containing pyrazine as the acceptor and triphenylamine as the donor has been designed and synthesized. The photophysical properties and biocompatibility of this probe, namely (OMeTPA)2-Pyr for live cell imaging were systematically investigated, with...
