FLUORESZIERENDE VERBINDUNGEN

摘要

Fluorescent dye compounds of formula (I) are disclosed. These compounds are useful as they interact with organic compounds in a manner such that excitation with certain wavelengths of light results in fluorescent emmission. Detection and/or monitoring of the fluorescence provides a means for the detection or quantification of organic compounds when bound to these fluorescent dye compounds. Formula (I), wherein: each of R, R' and R'' is a hydrogen atom, halogen atom or a straight or branched chain (C1-20alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl group optionally substituted with one or more halogen, hydroxy and/or oxy group: rings A, B and C optionally include one or more double bonds; rings B and C are optionally substituted with one or more halogen atoms.
