Description
Summary:A new trihydroxamate-containing amine was synthesized and was used to have access to a fluorescent labelled artificial siderophore. It behaves as a ferrichrome analogue in various organisms and particularly in Candida albicans. A fluorescent labelled artificial siderophore 1 was synthesized by coupling a 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole (NBD) derivative to the terminal amino group of a new trihydroxamate-containing amine 2, a ferrichrome-type siderophore that was obtained from tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane. Compound 1 was shown to be a suitable tool for experiments on siderophore transport and uptake processes in various organisms cells and particularly in Candida albicans cells.
