Description

The single isomer, 5-FAM, contains a carboxylic acid that can be used to react with primary amines via carbodiimide activation of the carboxylic acid. Fluorescein is the most common fluorescent derivatization reagent for labeling biomolecules. In addition to its relatively high absorptivity, excellent fluorescence quantum yield, and good water solubility, fluorescein has an excitation maximum that closely matches the 488 nm spectral line of the argon-ion laser.


5-carboxyfluorescein is a monocarboxylic acid. It has a role as a fluorochrome. It derives from a fluorescein (lactone form).

5-FAM Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

General procedure: To a solution of To the mixture of NH2-NB-72 (3 mg, 4.90 gmol) and 5-FAM (3.4 mg, 7.40 mhio) in DMF (100 gL) was added (11 mg, 0.11 mmol) at rt and reacted for 1 hr at rt. After the solvent was evaporated using a nitrogen stream, the title compound (Fluorescein-NB-72, 1.4 mg) was separated on S1O2 PLC using 10% MeOH/DCM (v/v). ESI (m/z) 971.9 (NT +1), 487.6 (0638) (M/Z2+2H).To a solution of 12w in THF at room temperature was added 13w, BOP and triethylamine. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 22 h. The mixture was then filtered through Celite. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was purified by prep-HPLC to give 14w.

Uses

5-Carboxyfluorescein is a single isomer derivative of 5(6)-carboxyfluorescein that can be used to fluorescently label biomolecules through the interaction of carboxylic acid with primary amines. It demonstrates excitation/emission maxima of 492 and 518 nm, respectively.
