Fluorescently labelled NPY Y1 receptor (Y1R) ligands were synthesized by connecting pyrylium and cyanine dyes with the argininamide-type Y1R antagonist core structure by linkers, covering a wide variety in length and chemical nature, attached to the guanidine group. The most promising fluorescentprobes had Y1R affinities (radioligand binding) and antagonistic activities (calcium assay) in the one-
A rotaxane consisting of a cucurbituril and an uncharged guest molecule, having low or null affinity therebetween is provided as well as processes for providing the same. Various uses as energy converters (“frictionless” molecular motors), biochips and biosensors using the same are also provided.
