Abstract
Compounds represented by the following general formula (I): wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1-6 alkyl group, or a C1-6 alkoxyl group, R7 and R8 independently represent a C1-6 alkyl group or an aryl group which may be substituted, R9 and R10 independently represent a hydrogen atom, a C1-6 alkyl group, or a C1-6 alkoxyl group, and R11 represents a hydrogen atom or a C1-6 alkanoyl group, or salts thereof. The aforementioned compounds are substantially non-fluorescent and react with singlet oxygen under a physiological condition to give a fluorescent substance, and therefore they are useful as agents for measurement of singlet oxygen.
