Benzo[X]quinoline (X =gorf:BQX) derivatives bearing bis-trifluoromethyl and amine groups have been designed as push–pull-type fluorescent dyes. Through the synthesis ofBQXderivatives from 2,7-diaminonaphthalene, linear-type (BQL) and angular-type (BQA) structural isomers were obtained. X-ray structures of single crystals from six givenBQXderivatives revealed that theBQLandBQAseries adopt planar- and bowl-shaped structures. In the fluorescence spectra, interestingly, theBQLseries emitted in the near-infrared region over 700 nm in polar solvents. Based on the visible absorptions and base properties related to the amine moiety, the ammonia responsiveness was investigated using an ion-exchange reaction by theBQX-HClsalt. By exploiting the environmentally responsive fluorescence probe, cell imaging through confocal laser microscopy was conducted using HeLa and 3T3-L1 cells, emitting specific lipid droplets. The results indicate thatBQXderivatives have multiple functions and may be applied in materials chemistry and biochemistry.
