Chemical Structure
Phenosafranine
- CAS No.: 81-93-6
- Formula:C18H15ClN4
- Molecular Weight:322.80
IUPAC Name: 3,7-diamino-5-phenylphenazin-5-ium chloride
InChIKey: SOUHUMACVWVDME-UHFFFAOYSA-N
SMILES: NC1=CC2=[N+](C3=C(N=C2C=C1)C=CC(N)=C3)C4=CC=CC=C4.[Cl-]
Biological Activity: Phenosafranine is a phenazine dye. Phenosafranine exhibits higher binding affinity for triple-stranded RNA than for double-stranded RNA, and binds to both types of RNA via intercalation. Phenosafranine interacts with hemoglobin. Phenosafranine can be used for plant cell staining, as well as the detection of hemoglobin, dopamine, serotonin, etc.[1][2][3]
