ACRIFLAVINE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Acriflavine hydrochloride is deep orange to brownish-red powder

Uses

Acriflavine is used in applications for dual fluorescence analysis of cellular DNA and protein simultaneously.

Uses

Fluorescent label for high molecular weight RNA

Safety Profile

Poison by subcutaneous route. Questionable carcinogen with experimental tumorigenic data. Human mutation data reported. A topical antiseptic used in the treatment of gonorrhea. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of NOx and Cl-. See also 3,6-DIAMINO-10 METHYLACRIDINIUM CHLORIDE.

Purification Methods

Treat acriflavin twice with freshly precipitated AgOH to remove proflavine, then recrystallise it from absolute methanol [Wen & Hsu J Phys Chem 66 1353 1962]. [Beilstein 22 III/IV 218.]
