Fluorogenic probes for imaging enable visualization and analysis of difficult-to-reach cells and organelles. However, there are limited efficient examples of tuning these fluorescent molecules to higher wavelengths. This is vital since different tissues are sensitive to varying wavelength emissions. To address this need, we report the discovery, tuning, structure-photophysical property relationships (SPPR), and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) computations of 400-700+ nm fluorescent pyrido[2',1':2,3]imidazo[4,5-c]isoquinolines and substituted imidazo[1,2-a]pyridin-3-amines...
