Abstract

A class of asymmetric monobenzoxanthene compounds useful as fluorescent dyes are disclosed having the structure ##STR1## PA1 wherein Y.sub.1 and Y.sub.2 are individually hydroxyl, amino, imminium, or oxygen, R.sub.1 -R.sub.8 are hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, alkyl, alkene, alkyne, sulfonate, amino, amido, nitrile, alkoxy, linking group, and combinations thereof, and R.sub.9 is acetylene, alkane, alkene, cyano, substituted phenyl, and combinations thereof. The invention further includes novel intermediate compounds useful for the synthesis of asymmetric benzoxanthene compounds having the general structure ##STR2## PA2 where substituents R.sub.3 -R.sub.7 correspond to like-referenced substituents in the structure of described above, and Y.sub.2 is hydroxyl or amine. In another aspect, the invention includes methods for synthesizing the above dye compounds and intermediates. In yet another aspect, the present invention includes reagents labeled with the asymmetric benoxanthene dye compounds, including deoxynucleotides, dideoxynucleotides, phosphoramidites, and polynucleotides. In an additional aspect, the invention includes methods utilizing such dye compounds and reagents including d…
