Energy-efficient compact fluorescent lamps (CFL) have been evaluated as a light source for the sensitized generation of singlet oxygen used in the oxidation of 1,3-butadienes and furfural derivatives using a range of dyes including rose bengal, methylene

Vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs) allow the loading of presynaptic glutamate vesicles and thus play a critical role in glutamatergic synaptic transmission. Rose Bengal (RB) is the most potent known VGLUT inhibitor (K i 25 nM); therefore we designed, synthesized and tested in brain preparations, a series of analogs based on this scaffold. We showed that among the two tautomers of RB, the carboxylic and not the lactonic form is active against VGLUTs and generated a pharmacophore model to determine the minimal structure requirements. We also tested RB specificity in other neurotransmitter uptake systems. RB proved to potently inhibit VMAT (Ki 64 nM) but weakly VACHT (Ki >9.7 μM) and may be a useful tool in glutamate/acetylcholine co-transmission studies.

, p. 474 - 484 (2007/10/02)
The synthesis of a new rose bengal derivative, 6-O-acetyl rose bengal ethyl ester is reported.The spectral properties of various new rose bengal derivatives are discussed in relation to their structures and compared with results found for the other fluorescein dyes in the literature.A concise historical review of the chemistry of fluorescein dyes and of their current applications is given. - Key words: Rose Bengal Derivatives, Photoxidation
