Small fluorescent probes are important tools when studying protein aggregates involved in different neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease. Luminescent conjugated oligothiophenes have been developed and shown to be excellent ligands when studying morphology among amyloids, due to their conjugated thiophene backbone that provides them with unique photophysical properties. This kind of probes are being developed successively to enhance the specificity of their biological targets. In this project, luminescent conjugated oligothiophenes functionalized with amino acids, so called proteophenes, have been synthesized to investigate their optical properties. Since amino acids are chiral molecules, the possibility of induced chirality to the thiophene backbone was examined, as well as the proteophenes ability to work as amyloidospecific ligands for the study of protein aggregates. The synthesis of four different proteophenes are presented in this report, along with analysis results of their photophysical properties.
