Abstract

We report herein the synthesis of a new hydrophilic and non-ionic anthracene derivative, the N, N′-di-(2, 3-dihydroxypropyl)-9, 10-anthracenedipropanamide. The evaluation of this compound as chemical trap of singlet molecular oxygen by using labeling experiments and HPLC–MS analysis showed that it could be efficiently used in biological investigations.
