“… Correlation of toxicity displayed as pIC 50 values obtained in MDR MES-SA/Dx5 (A, C, filled symbols) and parental MES-SA cells (B, D, open symbols) with p K a values of the hydroxyl group (A, B) and the quinolinium nitrogen (C, D). Data are shown for compounds 3 (gray diamond), 8 (gray triangle), 12 (gray circle), and Q-4 (gray squares), as determined previously, 50 as well as from derivatives 13 , 59 29 , 15 De-Cl-Q-4 , 15 and for 9 , 13 , 14 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 24 , 38 , 47 , 51 , 55 , 57 , 79 (black squares, described here). Representative spectra of the differently protonated species of compounds 38 and 9 are shown in Figure S1 .…”
