Caffeine Orange
Chemical Name: (E)-5,5-Difluoro-3-(2-(5-fluoro-1H-indol-3-yl)vinyl)-1-methyl-5H-5λ4,6λ4-dipyrrolo[1,2-c:2',1'-f][1,3,2]diazaborinine
Purity: ≥95%
Biological Activity
Caffeine Orange is a selective, BODIPY-based fluorescent caffeine chemosensor, which exhibits up to 250-fold enhancement in its fluorescence upon caffeine activation (KD = 16.81 mM and detection limit of 50 µM). Caffeine Orange works both in aqueous and in dry state, and its red emission intensity increases with increasing caffeine concentrations. Excitation maximum ~580 nM; emission maximum ~629 nM.Optical Data for Caffeine Orange
