The determinants of the broadband absorption spectrum of eumelanins are still largely unknown. Herein we report a novel approach to investigate eumelanin chromophore which is based on the biomimetic oxidation of the key monomer precursor, 5,6‐dihydroxyindole (DHI, 1), with peroxidase/hydrogen peroxide in phosphate buffer, pH 7, containing 1–5% polyvinylalcohol (PVA, 27 000 Da). This approach relies...
An unusual rearranged trimer, 2-(2-amino-4,5-dihydroxybenzyl)-6,7-dihydroxy-3-(5,6-dihydroxyindol-3-yl)quinoline (1a), was obtained as the acetyl derivative (1b) by mild acid-promoted polymerization of 5,6-dihydroxyindole at pH 2. Compound 1b proved to be a selective fluoride-sensing compound, transducing F − binding into a distinct absorption at 414nm and a marked fluorescence enhancement...
