Claims28
A compound comprising a structure represented by Formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:
- wherein
- A comprises a mitochondrial targeting moiety;
- Z comprises a lipid chain;
- R1 and R2 are independently hydrogen, a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkyl, a glycolysis inhibitor, a glutamine oxidation inhibitor, or a fatty acid inhibitor, wherein at least one of R1 or R2 is a glycolysis inhibitor, a glutamine oxidation inhibitor, or a fatty acid inhibitor;
- R3 is a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C10 alkylene;
- L1 is a substituted or unsubstituted alkylene, a carbonyl, an ester, an amide, a carbamate ester, an amine, an ether, a carbonate ester, a thioether, a thioester, or a urea;
- each L2 is independently a direct bond, a C1-C4 alkylene, or —RaX—, wherein Ra is a C0-C4 alkylene and X is a detectable-group.
