Abstract
Controlled release of singlet oxygen from chemical sources is becoming an interesting path for eliciting apoptotic death of cancer cells. In this work, we present the synthesis and characterization of hitherto unknown class of aromatic endoperoxides, namely quinoline endoperoxides. Quinolines, especially after quaternization, show significant targeting of mitochondria. This leads to more effective cytotoxicity in cancer cell cultures suggesting a potential utility in cancer therapy.
期刊介绍：
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is an international high-impact journal for chemistry in its broadest sense. The journal covers all aspects of chemistry from biochemistry through organic and inorganic chemistry to physical chemistry, including interdisciplinary topics.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal publishes Full Papers, Communications, and Focus Reviews.
A professional editorial team headed by Dr. Theresa Kueckmann and an Editorial Board (headed by Professor Susumu Kitagawa) ensure the highest quality of the peer-review process, the contents and the production of the journal.
Chemistry—An Asian Journal is published on behalf of the Asian Chemical Editorial Society (ACES), an association of numerous Asian chemical societies, and supported by the Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh, German Chemical Society), ChemPubSoc Europe, and the Federation of Asian Chemical Societies (FACS).
