1,4-DIACETOXY-2,3-DICYANOBENZENE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

3,6-Diacetoxyphthalonitrile is a fluorescent probe for monitoring intracellular pH by flow cytometry in living cells. It rapidly crosses cell membranes and is cleaved by cytosolic esterases to form the fluorescent pH indicator 2,3-dicyano-hydroquinone, which is excited at UV wavelengths.
