Acridone (9 (10 H ) -Acridone) is structurally related to its parent body acridine and the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon anthracene , but in contrast to this it has a heteroaromatic 4-pyridone as the central six-membered ring . The acridone structure can also be derived from the quinacridone structure by removing a 4-pyridone ring from it together with an adjoining peripheral ring.
history
According to a publication by Karl Drechsler , a student of Guido Goldschmiedt at the Imperial and Royal University of Vienna , Moriz Freund discovered the material in 1896 during experiments at the University of Prague . Drechsler was then able to produce the material in larger quantities and then examine it more closely.
use
Acridone derivatives can be used as fluorescence probes in molecular biology or to measure the Lewis acidity of metal ion salts. In medicine , acridone alkaloids are suitable as an active ingredient against cancer and malaria .
