Heck reaction synthesis of anthracene and naphthalene derivatives as traps and clean chemical sources of singlet molecular oxygen in biological systems

Photochem. Photobiol. Sci., 2020,19,1590-1602 DOI: 10.1039/D0PP00153H, PaperMarilene Silva Oliveira, Gabriel Chorociejus, Jos é Pedro F. Angeli, Giuliana Vila Verde, Gilberto L. B. Aquino, Graziella E. Ronsein, Maurício César Bof de Oliveira, Livea F. Barbosa, Marisa H. G. Medeiros, Alexander Greer, Paolo Di Mascio Our study shows that new anthracene and naphthalene derivatives function as compounds for trapping and chemically generating singlet molecular oxygen [O2(1Δg)], respectively. The syntheses of these derivatives are described, as well as some localization testing in cells. The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
