SYNTHESIS OF SINGLE SUBSTITUTED ANILINE DERIVATIVES ANCHORED TO THE DANSILA FLUORESCENT MARKER FOR MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS
Carbon
dots, Sondas Fluorescentes.
Aniline and its monosubstituted derivatives, when undergoing reactions with fluorescent markers, can be applied in
several areas, such as biological markers, obtaining polymers and detector probes. Dansylated amines have in their
structure the sulfonamide group and the presence of TICT, which allow double fluorescence and make them, in many cases, more sensitive to the microenvironment and specific analytes. Given these characteristics, they become promising molecules to be used as selective fluorescent probes for several analytes. Due to their carbonaceous composition and their various functional functional groups (-NH2, -SO2, -COOH, among others), they are excellent precursors for fluorescent carbon nanoparticles (Carbon dots), which have as main characteristics their
biocompatibility, water solubility and high luminescence. The carbon dots obtained from organic molecules can have a previously determined structure and composition, allowing for a control of the synthesis and guiding its application. Therefore, this project aims at the synthesis of o-aniline derivatives anchored to the fluorescent marker dansila for applications as fluorescent probes of several analytes and obtaining C-dots for the assembly of WLEDs
