Abstract: A new family of therapeutics which provides a controlled-release delivery platform for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents on an ester or an ester-carbonate backbone is disclosed herein. These agents are reversible inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase and are thus useful for clinical conditions benefiting from inflammation suppression and cholinergic intervention. These compounds are of the general formula wherein n=0, 1; X?C, Si, and N+ and NSAID=ibuprofen, naproxen, indomethacin and diclofenac. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: Fused-ring triazole compounds which inhibit proliferation of cells and exhibit a unique and intense fluorescence are provided. Also provided are methods for synthesizing these compounds and methods for using these compounds to inhibit cell proliferation and infection and to label and fluorescently detect selected molecules.
