    Tailored Bodipy-Based Fluorogenic Probes for Phosgene Detection: a Comparative Evaluation of Recognition Sites
    (Royal Soc Chemistry, 2024) Dartar, Suay; Kaya, Beraat Umur; Yayak, Yanki Oncu; Vural, Ezgi; Emrullahoglu, Mustafa
    We constructed two novel boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY)-based fluorescent probes, BOPD and BOBA, each equipped with the phosgene specific recognition units o-phenylenediamine (OPD) and o-aminobenzylamine (OBA) at the 2-position of the BODIPY core. BOPD and BOBA represent rare examples of BODIPY-based probes that operate by modulating an intramolecular charge transfer process (ICT), as validated by computational studies. We systematically compared the analytic performance of those recognition units while focusing on selectivity, fluorescence turn-on ratios and response times. Probe BOBA, equipped with OBA as the recognition unit, demonstrated a remarkably low detection limit (i.e., 1.40 nM) and a rapid response time (<10 s) for triphosgene. By comparison, BOPD, featuring an OPD unit, showed superior selectivity towards triphosgene, with a detection limit of 93 nM and a response time of up to 30 s. A portable sensing platform was developed by loading BOPD onto test strips made of TLC plates, nonwoven materials and small-headed cotton swabs, which were assessed for their effectiveness in detecting phosgene. We additionally performed the first successful application of a fluorescent probe, namely BOPD, for monitoring the accumulation of phosgene in plants.

    A Reaction-Based Scenario for Fluorescence Probing of Au(iii) Ions in Human Cells and Plants
    (Royal Soc Chemistry, 2023) Eren, Merve Cevik; Eren, Ahmet; Dartar, Suay; Kaya, Beraat Umur; Ucuncu, Muhammed; Varlikli, Canan; Emrullahoglu, Mustafa
    A BODIPY-based fluorophore decorated with a gold specific reactive handle (e.g., 2-alkynylallyl alcohol) displayed a ratiometric fluorescence change in response to Au3+ ions with extraordinary selectivity over other competing metal species, including Hg2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Pd2+. By way of a gold-catalyzed intramolecular cyclisation-isomerisation reaction sequence, a BODIPY construct with an extended p-conjugation transformed into a new structure with a relatively short p-system. This unique chemical transformation was accompanied by, and resulted in, a dramatic shift in the emission and absorption wavelength, which could be monitored as distinct changes in the color of the solution's emission. Apart from its outstanding analytical performance in solution, including a quick response time (<10 s), unique specificity, a high-fold ratio-metric change (62-fold), and a remarkably low detection limit (358 nM), the probe also proved useful in monitoring Au3+ ions in human cells and plants (e.g., Nicotiana benthamiana).

    Bodipy-Vinyl Dibromides as Triplet Sensitisers for Photodynamic Therapy and Triplet-Triplet Annihilation Upconversion
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2021) Dartar, Suay; Üçüncü, Muhammed; Karakuş, Erman; Hou, Yuqi; Zhao, Jianzhang; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa
    We devised a new generation of halogen-based triplet sensitisers comprising geminal dibromides at the vinyl backbone of a BODIPY fluorophore. Incorporating geminal dibromides into the pi-conjugation of BODIPY enhanced intersystem crossing due to the heavy atom effect, which in turn improved the extent of excited triplet states.

    Fluorescein Propiolate: a Propiolate- Decorated Fluorescent Probe With Remarkable Selectivity Towards Cysteine
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019) Karakuş, Erman; Sayar, Melike; Dartar, Suay; Kaya, Beraat Umur; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa
    A fluorescent probe decorated with an alkynyl ester unit (e.g. propiolate) displayed a selective turn-on type fluorescent response towards cysteine. Following a sequential addition-cyclisation pathway mediated by the addition of cysteine, the pre-fluorescent dye rapidly transformed into a new structure and induced a fluorescent response clearly observable with the naked eye.

    Bodipy-Au(i): a Photosensitizer for Singlet Oxygen Generation and Photodynamic Therapy
    (American Chemical Society, 2017) Üçüncü, Muhammed; Karakuş, Erman; Kurulgan Demirci, Eylem; Sayar, Melike; Dartar, Suay; Emrullahoğlu, Mustafa
    Upon complexation with Au(I), a photoinactive BODIPY derivative was transformed into a highly photoactive triplet sensitizer. Along with high efficiency in singlet oxygen generation (φδ = 0.84), the new BODIPY-Au(I) skeleton showed excellent photocytotoxic activity against cancer cell lines (EC50 = 2.5 nM).
