Structure and properties | Rhodamine 6g (rhodamine6G,R6G) is a water-soluble cationic fluorescent dye, the aqueous solution under ultraviolet light irradiation emits green-yellow fluorescence, the alkaline solution exhibits dark-green fluorescence, and the ethanol solution exhibits red-yellow color with green-yellow fluorescence, which is widely used for fluorescence labeling or quantitative analysis. Rhodamine 6g (Rh6G) is a kind of cationic dye, which is composed of anthracene, benzene ring is linked by "oxygen Bridge", and the molecule has a rigid planar structure. The photophysical properties of Rh6G mainly depend on the environment (such as pH, polarity and charge) of the dye molecules, this is due to the delocalization of the amino group's positive charge by the Xanthene ring Pi-electron system. It is important to study the photophysical phenomena of dyes for improving and controlling the fluorescence properties of dyes. In biochemical research, it is used to generate ion association complexes for the determination of metal ions by fluorescence and photometry; Adsorption indicator; Biological stain. |
uses | Rhodamine 6G is an organic dye widely used in optics, spectroscopy and laser science. In 1980, Xu Qiheng comprehensively studied and summarized the structure and properties of this kind of dyes. He thought that there were "oxygen bridges" between the benzene rings in Rhodamine dyes, which had a rigid planar structure, the energy of the incident light is easily absorbed to emit a long wave, thereby generating fluorescence. In addition, it has a quinone-type structure and can produce color. When it is oxidized, its quinone-type structure is destroyed, and the color of the dye solution becomes lighter or even colorless, it lays a theoretical foundation for fluorescence analysis and photometric analysis. Rhodamine 6G is one of the Rhodamine family dyes with high fluorescence properties. It is often used as a tracking dye to observe the flow velocity, flow direction and delivery in water. Because Rhodamine dyes have fluorescent properties, they can be easily detected in an inexpensive manner, I .e., a fluorometer. Rhodamine dyes have been widely used in biotechnology, such as fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Basic Red 6GDN is suitable for dyeing silk and direct printing of silk fabrics. Generally used for neutral, acid direct dye multi-color overprint for the use of decorative colors, do not print large, in the block surface pattern. For dyeing wool, cotton fiber, poor color fastness. Can be used for leather, paper coloring, also for the preparation of organic pigments. The color lake formed by the interaction with phosphotungstophosphoric acid is used for the production of high-grade ink pigments, and can also be used for the dyeing of acrylic, wool and silk |
preparation | 1) Rhodamine 575 (isomer 1a) synthesis of 3-ethylamino-5-methylphenol (II) 22.65g(150mmol), phthalic anhydride 22.2g(150mmol), dissolved in 250mL chlorobenzene, then add ZnCl217.6g, filled with nitrogen, after reaction at 190 °c for 6h, it was cooled, filtered and dried. Recrystallization from a methanol-chloroform (1: 1) mixed solution gave 16.7g of a purple solid (1a). 2) synthesis of Rhodamine 6g (isomer 1b) weigh (1a)33.2g(80mmol), dissolve in 15.4 of anhydrous ethanol, add diethyl sulfate g (mmol), reflux for 2H, and cool. 100ml of a 1mol/L aqueous solution of potassium tetrafluoroborate was added to form a precipitate, which was filtered and dried. Recrystallization from methanol gave 31.5g of a purple solid (1b). |
production method | 3-ethylamino-p-cresol (p-cresol, 3-ethlemino) and phthalic anhydride are used as raw materials, the product was then esterified with ethanol.. |
