<p>This invention provides cyclic-bridged dyes, particularly cyclic-bridged cyanine dyes, of the general formula:In this formula, each dotted line represents carbon atoms necessary to form a fused substituted or unsubstituted aromatic ring; n=1-18; m=1-18, selected independently from n. X and Y are selected independently from the group consisting of S, O, N, CH2 and C(CH3)2; at least one of said R1 and R2 comprises a sulfonic acid or sulfonate group attached to the aromatic ring; and R3 and R4 are independently selected from the group consisting of carboxyl, activated carboxyl and methyl, wherein at least one of said R3 and R4 groups is carboxylate or activated carboxylate. Methods of making and using the cyclic-bridged dyes are also provided.</p> |
