    Study of a Convenient Method for the Preparation of Hydrosoluble Fluorescent Triazatruxene Derivatives

    Triazatruxene derivatives find many applications as lipophilic compounds, but few examples of hydrosoluble derivatives have been reported so far. In this paper, we compare different synthetic routes for the preparation of hydrophilic triazatruxene derivatives and define the most versatile path-way. The synthesized compounds are fluorescent not only in organic solvents, as reported for other lipophilic derivatives, but also in water, making them particularly suitable for biological applications
