A new fluorescent probe, a 3-perylenoyl derivative of the lipophilized antitumor drug merphalan (sarcolysine), was synthesized. The probe is suitable for studying intracellular traffic and metabolism of merphalan and its derivatives. The perylenoyl fluorescence is partially quenched by the merphalan chromophore, which broadens the probe potentialities. The English version of the paper: Russian Journal of Bioorganic Chemistry, 2004, vol. 30, no. 1; see also http://www.maik.ru.
