Application of 4-amino-N-adamantylphthalimide solvatochromic dye for fluorescence microscopy in selective visualization of lipid droplets and mitochondria

•4-Amino-N-adamantylphthalimide (1) is a fluorescent dye (ΦF = 0.15–0.80) that exhibits fluorosolvatochromic properties.•The dye stains artificial membranes in liposomes.•The dye stains intracellular lipid droplets and mitochondrial membranes.•The dye allows the simultaneous visualization of mitochondria in green and intracellular lipid droplets in blue emission channel.
