AI Article Synopsis
- A new compound called imidazolium anthracene derivative 1 was created and its crystal structure was studied using X-ray techniques.
- In water, this compound selectively reduced fluorescence when exposed to DNA, but not to other anions or nucleotides.
- The compound was also used to observe the activity of DNase, an enzyme that digests DNA.
Article Abstract
A new imidazolium anthracene derivative 1 was synthesized, and its unique X-ray crystal structure was examined. In aqueous solutions, probe 1 exhibited a selective fluorescent quenching effect only with DNA among various anions including the nucleotides investigated. This probe was further applied to monitor the activity of DNase.
