ABSTRACT:
The indicator compounds of the present invention are substituted or unsubstituted 5'-nitro-BAPTA chelators that contain a benzazolyl-coumarin substructure, and the pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic salts and esters thereof. These compounds are useful for the detection and quantification of polycationic metal ions, particularly Zn.sup.2+, Pb.sup.2+, Ba.sup.2+, Cd.sup.2+, Hg.sup.2+ and La.sup.3+.
The compounds of the invention have the structure: ##STR1## where m=2 or 3 and X can be S, O, or C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 ; optionally substituted by substituents that alter the binding affinity of the indicator, shift the spectral properties of the indicator, or act as a reactive site for the preparation of a variety of conjugates.
