A novel H2O2-triggered anti-Fenton fluorescent pro-chelator excitable with visible light

Abstract:
A chelator and a pro-chelator that can be activated by H(2)O(2) and subsequently sequesters iron and attenuates the Fenton reaction have been developed; both molecules are fluorescent excitable by visible light, and H(2)O(2)-activation, as well as iron-chelation, induces remarkable changes in fluorescence.
