Abstrakt: Soluble anthracenedicarboxyimides have been prepared and undergo a photodimerisation of the anthracene skeleton, which is important for their application as antitumour agents, such as azonafides. Reaction under strongly alkaline conditions causes C-C coupling to form soluble dimeric fluorescent dyes with bathochromic absorption and fluorescence in the NIR region. These dyes are of special interest because of their absorption at longer wavelengths.
