Chemical Structure
RhoNox-4
- CAS No.: 2711762-70-6
- Formula:C38H44N4O8
- Molecular Weight:684.78
InChIKey: BPPNJBCDCLJSAA-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: CC(C)(OC(N1CC[N+](C2=CC3=C(C4(C5=CC=C(C=C5O3)N6CCN(C(OC(C)(C)C)=O)CC6)OC(C7=C4C=CC=C7)=O)C=C2)(CC1)[O-])=O)C
Biological Activity: RhoNox-4 is a Fe2+-selective fluorescence-activatable probe and an inhibitor of ferroptosis. RhoNox-4 shows no obvious cytotoxicity even at concentrations up to 50 μM. RhoNox-4 can selectively oxidize labile Fe2+ to Fe3+, depleting the iron pool required for lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis. RhoNox-4 inhibits ferroptosis induced by ferroptosis inducers; its activity depends on localization to the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi apparatus, and it does not affect apoptosis or necrosis. RhoNox-4 can be used for imaging labile Fe2+ in living cells, and also enables high-throughput screening of labile iron homeostasis regulators based on 96-well plates. RhoNox-4 allows visualization of cytoplasmic Fe2+ levels in root tips of *Arabidopsis* (Ex/Em = 530-560/573-647 nm)[1][2][3][4].
