Résumé

Herein, we show that a far-red arylidene-squaraine dye is stable against nucleophiles, in contrast to arene-squaraines. Owing to the fluorescence enhancement in apolar media together with high brightness and photostability, this dye was successfully applied to detect the oxytocin G protein-coupled receptor and monitor its internalization in living cells.
