A Fluorescent Naphthalenediimide-Alkoxyfuroxan Photoinduced Nitric Oxide Donor

Abstract

We describe the design and facile synthesis of a fluorescent alkoxyfuroxan naphthalenediimide (NDI) hybrid nitric oxide (NO) donor molecule which releases NO under spatiotemporal control when irradiated with visible light (420-600 nm). The hybrid also demonstrates cellular uptake made possible by its fluorescence capability. This research consolidates our recent work into visible light absorbing photosensitised furoxan NO release by addressing the limitations of previous designs. Key points of photoinduced nitric oxide donors are highlighted such as water solubility, NO release, cellular uptake, fluorescence, and longer absorption wavelengths.
