Generalized chemical structure of dual-function acridone derivatives. The rigid tricyclic aromatic acridone core promotes π-π stacking for heme binding. The side chain attachment at the central nitrogen atom provides a hydrogen bond acceptor needed for the chemosensitization function, and together with the side chain at the 6-position facilitate accumulation in the digestive vacuole (DV) via acid trapping.
