The development of live-cell fluorescence nanoscopy is powered by the availability of suitable fluorescent probes. Rhodamines are among the best fluorophores for labeling intracellular structures. Isomeric tuning is a powerful method for optimizing biocompatibility of the rhodamine-containing probes without affecting their spectral properties. However, the efficient synthesis pathway for rhodamine 4-isomers is still lacking. Herein, we present a facile protecting-group-free 4-carboxyrhoda...
