Abstract: The invention concerns sterically shielded, stabilized fluorescent dyes based on symmetrical or unsymmetrical 3-spirocyanines and their utilization as marker-molecules in analytical procedures. The fluorescent dyes according to the invention are characterized by a strongly reduced proneness towards aggregation due to the insertion of bulky spiro-substituents and thus enable to reach a high degree of coupling to the target molecule without a significant loss of fluorescence due to self quenching effects. They therefor exhibit a high quantum yield and are thus excellently suitable as fluorescent dyes, especially as NIR-fluorescent dyes, for the coupling or binding to biological and non-biological target molecules used in analytical methods. The analytical methods comprise all methods in which fluorescence-optical methods are used to detect biological and non-biological molecules.
