Fluorescein dicaproate

Description:
Fluorescein dicaproate, with the CAS number 7364-90-1, is an ester derivative of fluorescein, a well-known fluorescent dye. This compound exhibits strong fluorescence properties, making it useful in various applications, including biological imaging and as a tracer in fluid dynamics. Structurally, fluorescein dicaproate features a fluorescein backbone modified by the addition of two caproic acid (hexanoic acid) chains, which enhances its solubility in organic solvents and may influence its photophysical properties. The compound typically appears as a bright yellow-green solid or powder and is soluble in organic solvents while being less soluble in water. Its fluorescence can be excited by ultraviolet or visible light, emitting light in the green spectrum. Due to its fluorescent characteristics, fluorescein dicaproate is often utilized in research and industrial applications, including dyeing processes, fluorescence microscopy, and as a marker in various biological assays. Safety data should be consulted for handling and potential toxicity, as with any chemical substance.
