“…In general, they do not react with aromatic amines, phenols, or alcohols [4]. Some fluorescent or chromogenic succinimidyl esters have been reported for amine derivatization, such as succinimido phenylcarbamate (SIPC) [5], succinimido p-bromophenylcarbamate (SIBr-PC) [5], succinimido 1-naphthylcarbamate (SINC) [5], 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (AQC) [6 -9], N-hydroxysuccinimidyl-a-naphthylacetate (SINA) [10], N-hydroxysuccinimidyl-3-indolyl acetate (SIIA) [11], N-hydroxysuccinimicyl-a-(9-phenanthrene)-acetate (HSMPA) [12], 9-fluorenylmethoxy carbonyl succinimide (Fmoc-OSu) [13], N-hydroxysuccinomodyl-a-(9-acridine)-acetate (HSAA) [14], 5-carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE) [15], Nhydroxysuccinimidyl fluorescein-O-acetate (SIFA) [16], and N-hydroxysuccinimidyl 4,3,29-naphthapyrone-4-acetate (NPA-OSu) [17], etc. Also, 4-(6,7-dihydro-5,8-dioxothiazolo(4,5-g)phthalazin-2-yl)benzoic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (TPB-Suc) has been used as a highly sensitive chemiluminescence derivatizing reagent for amines in LC [18].…”
