Abstract

Dibenzorhodamine compounds having the structure ##STR1## are disclosed, including nitogen- and aryl-substituted forms thereof. In addition, intermediates useful for synthesizing such compounds are disclosed, such intermediates having the structure ##STR2## In Formula I, R.sub.1 is H or ##STR3## wherein Y is H, lower alkyl, lower alkene, lower alkyne, aromatic, phenyl, polycyclic aromatic, heterocycle, water-solubilizing group, or linking group, including substituted forms thereof. When R.sub.1 is H, the C-12-bonded nitrogen and the C-12 and C-13 carbons form a first ring structure having from 4 to 7 members, and/or the C-12-bonded nitrogen and the C-11 and C-12 carbons form a second ring structure having from 5 to 7 members. The compounds of Formula I further include aryl- and nitrogen-substituted forms thereof. The invention further includes energy transfer dyes comprising the dibenzorhodamine compounds, nucleosides labeled with the dibenzorhodamine compounds, and nucleic acid analysis methods employing the dibenzorhodamine compounds.
