Abstract

Synthetic anion transmembrane transporters are adding new aspirations for treating channelopathies by replacing defective ion channels. The availability of such suitable candidates is still infrequent due to the associated toxicity. Here, we report 3-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)benzamides as transmembrane anion carriers, nontoxic to cells. The selective and electrogenic chloride transport activity was established by fluorescence and ion selective electrode-based assays. MQAE assay confirmed the chloride uptake into the cells by the nontoxic compounds.
