Novel 3-Amino-1-hetarylfluorene derivatives have medicinal uses and challenging transformation in organic synthesis have been synthesized via decyanation process. Surprisingly, the alkylated compounds derived from 3-Amino-1-hetarylfluorenes were obtained via further nucleophilic substitution to the 9-C and 3-N positions of the fluorene ring because of the harsh reaction condition employed. The synthesized
any fluorene analogue. CD experiments along with other methods support ds-DNA minor groove binding and major groove ds-RNA binding. All compounds showed negligible interaction with G-quadruplex DNA. Very low cell cytotoxicity of studied compounds combined with very efficient cellular uptake makes these fluorescent dyes safe for laboratory applications. Moreover, especially compounds which show opposite
