Cyanine 5.5 azide

Cyanine 5.5 azide (CY 5.5 azide) is a potent fluorescent dye. Cyanine 5.5 azide can label DNA. Cyanine 5.5 azide can be used for NIR live organism imaging. (λex=684 nm, λem=710 nm) [1][2]. Cyanine 5.5 azide is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition reaction (CuAAc) with molecules containing Alkyne groups. It can also undergo strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.
