Squaraine Dyes Derived from Indolenine and Benzo[e]indole as Potential Fluorescent Probes for HSA Detection and Antifungal Agents

Vanessa S Gomes, +7 more
- 29 Mar 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, four squaraine dyes derived from 2,3,3]-trimethylindolenine and 1,1,2−1H−benzo[e]indole with different combinations of barbituric groups attach to the central ring, having ester groups and alkyl chains in the nitrogen atoms of heterocyclic rings were synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI
