DMP 840, a novel bis-naphthalimide, was evaluated for antitumor efficacy in several tumor models in mice. As measured by a tumor growth inhibition assay, i.v. administration of DMP 840 to athymic nude mice at doses at or below the maximum tolerated dose resulted in curative activity against four human solid tumor xenografts, MX-1 mammary carcinoma, CX-1 and DLD-2 colon adenocarcinomas, and LX-1...

this research is an attempt to measure the effect of alkyl tail on the visible spectra and order parameters s of some azo n-ester-1,8-naphthalimide(anen) disperse dyestuff. for the first time, the visible absorption spectra of two azo n-ester-1,8-naphthalimide(anen) dyes with identical molecular size and diverse alkyl tails were obtained in liquids and liquid crystalline solvent. ordinary organ...

In the title compound, C(21)H(22)N(2)O(4), the naphthalimide unit is almost planar (r.m.s. deviation = 0.081Å). The carboximide N atom and the five C atoms of the eth-oxy-carbonyl-methyl substituent also lie close to a common plane (r.m.s. deviation = 0.119Å), which subtends an angle of 71.06 (8)° to the naphthalamide plane. The piperidine ring adopts a chair conformation. In the crystal, inter...

A new fluorescent sensor 1, based on the naphthalimide chromophore and thioether-rich crown receptor, exhibited dual signaling behaviors for Hg(2+) and Ag(+) in aqueous solution. Upon addition of Hg(2+), the fluorescence intensity enhanced in a linear fashion with a quantum yield increase of about 5-fold. Moreover, with the 1-Hg(2+) complex, Ag(+) was easily recognized by a marked fluorescence ...

A series of polymer chemosensors containing naphthalimide signal moiety and imide recognition moiety for the selective detection of fluoride ions (F(-) ) were synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. The polymer chemosensors display obvious absorption and fluorescence variations upon the addition of F(-) , which can be observed by both naked eyes an...
