Anthracene-bisphosphonate based novel fluorescent organic nanoparticles explored as apoptosis inducers of cancer cells

Abstract

We report the first synthesis and use of a well defined fluorescent organic nanoparticle (FON), tetraethyl anthracene-9,10-diyl-9,10-bis(phosphonate) [TEABP], as a selective anticancer candidate by apoptosis mediated cancer therapy towards U937 cells together with its unique solvatochromic properties.
