Abstract
The present disclosure provides polymerizable luminescent dyes useful for incorporation into polymers. The dyes and the polymers can be used in sensing and imaging applications, for example, to provide accurate and optionally long term measurements of glucose in vivo. The present disclosure also provides sensors including the polymers described herein. The sensors can be implanted into a tissue of a subject and used for long-term or short-term continuous and semi-continuous collection of data of various biochemical analytes, optionally without the use of implantable hardware of any type and/or enzymatic and electrochemical detection methods.
Claims22
A compound of Formula I:
- or a tautomer or a salt thereof,
- wherein the dotted lines denote a bond or absence of a bond;
- when the dotted line connecting R1 and O is a bond, R1 is CX1X2 and R15 is absent;
- and
- when the dotted line connecting R1 and 0 is absence of a bond, R15, at each occurrence, is independently H or C1-C6 alkyl, and R1, at each occurrence, is H, optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, optionally substituted C2-C6 alkenyl, optionally substituted C2-C6 alkynyl, optionally substituted C2-C10 heteroalkyl, polymerizable moiety, an NIR dye moiety, an electron-withdrawing group, or an electron-donating group;
- X1 and X2 are independently H or C1-C6 alkyl;
- R2 is H or C1-C6 alkyl;
- Z is a C6-C14 arylene optionally substituted with R11, R12, R14, and L2R13;
- R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, R11, R12, R13 and R14 are independently H, optionally substituted C1-C6 alkyl, optionally substituted C2-C6 alkenyl, optionally substituted C2-C6 alkynyl, optionally substituted C2-C10 heteroalkyl, polymerizable moiety, NIR dye moiety, electron-withdrawing group, or electron-donating group;
- R9 and R10 are independently H, C1-C6 alkyl, polymerizable moiety, or NIR dye moiety;
- L1, L2, and L3 are independently a bond or a linker group;
- and
- wherein at least one R1, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11, R12, R13, or R14 is an NIR dye moiety and at least one R1, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, R8, R9, R10, R11, R12, R13, or R14 is a polymerizable moiety.
