Caged strand-breaker CEP

Notes: Once installed into an oligonucleotide, irradiation at 365 nm at neutral pH causes strand cleavage, leaving phosphate groups on both daughter strands. In contrast to other related monomers, a second step involving treatment with base is not required.

6-Chlorosalicylic acid

Notes: Biodegredation product of the herbicide Dicamba.  

Ferrocenoyl propargylamide

7-O-Amino-4-methylumbelliferone
