Abstract
Organic fluorophores are often used in advanced applications such as biological imaging, molecular sensors, optoelectronic dyes, and materials science. Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines are pharmacologically important, fused N-heterocycles, as they have shown interesting clinical results against various human diseases. In addition, pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines are also pronounced for their intensive photophysical properties, suggesting their potential in material science applications. Accordingly, the current study focuses on the synthesis and functionalization of various pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines in the recent decade (2014–2025). Moreover, the discussion highlights the synthetic approaches for novel π-extended pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidines and their fluorophore applications for chemosensory, optoelectronic and biological activities. As well, it is hoped that this review will act as a model for further research to develop efficient pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-based fluorophores for biological and material science applications.
期刊介绍:
Dyes and Pigments covers the scientific and technical aspects of the chemistry and physics of dyes, pigments and their intermediates. Emphasis is placed on the properties of the colouring matters themselves rather than on their applications or the system in which they may be applied.
Thus the journal accepts research and review papers on the synthesis of dyes, pigments and intermediates, their physical or chemical properties, e.g. spectroscopic, surface, solution or solid state characteristics, the physical aspects of their preparation, e.g. precipitation, nucleation and growth, crystal formation, liquid crystalline characteristics, their photochemical, ecological or biological properties and the relationship between colour and chemical constitution. However, papers are considered which deal with the more fundamental aspects of colourant application and of the interactions of colourants with substrates or media.
The journal will interest a wide variety of workers in a range of disciplines whose work involves dyes, pigments and their intermediates, and provides a platform for investigators with common interests but diverse fields of activity such as cosmetics, reprographics, dye and pigment synthesis, medical research, polymers, etc.
