Abstract

Nitrogen-containing heterocycles are ubiquitous in natural products and drugs. Various organic small molecules with nitrogen-containing heterocycles, such as nitrogen-containing boron compounds, cyanine, pyridine derivatives, indole derivatives, quinoline derivatives, maleimide derivatives, etc., have unique biological features, which could be applied in various biological fields, including biological imaging. Fluorescence cell imaging is a significant and effective imaging modality in biological imaging. This review focuses on the synthesis and applications in direct fluorescence cell imaging of -heterocyclic organic small molecules in the last five years, to provide useful information and enlightenment for researchers in this field.
