Abstract: Two novel binaphthyl amines have been designed and synthesized using Buchwald amination and oxidative homocoupling as key steps. The binaphthyl amine containing two triazole rings shows higher affinity for c-MYC G-quadruplex, exhibits fluorescence "turn-on" response with c-MYC, and stains the nucleus in cells. The triazolyl binaphthyl amine shows cytotoxicity for cancer cells by inducing G2/M phase cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Moreover, both ligands can downregulate c-MYC expression at transcriptional and translational levels.
