Abstract: A novel non-fluorescent rhodamine dye forms a twisted intramolecular charge transfer state. A substituent that causes steric hindrance is introduced at an ortho position of a dimethylamino group on the xanthene ring of tetramethylrhodamine, which is a general rhodamine that exhibits strong fluorescence, and a certain amount of twist is imparted in a ground state. As a result, the formation of the twisted intramolecular charge transfer state is promoted in the excited state and non-fluorescence is exhibited.

Abstract: The present invention provides a production method of a sulfonylpyrrole compound useful as a pharmaceutical product, a production method of an intermediate used for the method, and a novel intermediate. The present invention relates to a method of producing sulfonylpyrrole compound (VIII), which includes reducing compound (III) and hydrolyzing the reduced product to give compound (IV), subjecting compound (IV) to a sulfonylation reaction to give compound (VI), and subjecting compound (VI) to an amination reaction.

Abstract: This invention describes a method of conjugating a cell binding agent such as an antibody with an effector group (e.g., a cytotoxic agent) or a reporter group (e.g., a radionuclide), whereby the reporter or effector group is first reacted with a bifunctional linker and the mixture is then used without purification for the conjugation reaction with the cell binding agent. The method described in this invention is advantageous for preparation of stably-linked conjugates of cell binding agents, such as antibodies with effector or reporter groups. This conjugation method provides in high yields conjugates of high purity and homogeneity that are without inter-chain cross-linking and inactivated linker residues.
