Key Points

This research aims to explore the luminescent properties of DNA-interacting lanthanide complexes using a specific ligand.
Used dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppz) ligand for lanthanide sensitization.
Tested lanthanide ions Nd3+, Er3+, and Yb3+ for near-infrared emission capabilities.
Analyzed the interaction between the ligand and DNA for luminescence effectiveness.
Confirmed that dppz effectively sensitizes lanthanide ions, enhancing near-infrared luminescence.
Demonstrated significant interaction between the ligand and DNA structures observed in luminescent profiles.

Investigates near-infrared luminescence with DNA-interacting lanthanide complexes, suggesting potential for advanced imaging techniques.

Abstract

Dipyrido[3,2-a:2',3'-c]phenazine (dppz) is well known for its ability to interact with DNA, and is ideally suited for sensitizing near-infrared (NIR)-emitting lanthanide ions such as Nd3+, Er3+ and Yb3+. The combination...
