A new Morita-Baylis-Hillman Adduct (MBHA) derivative 7 was designed and synthesized to obtain a reactive molecule potentially capable of labelling basic amino acid residues. Compound 7 was easily prepared and characterized from the point of view of its photophysical and photochemical features before then to be used in labelling experiments with amino acid. [Display omitted] • A new Morita-Baylis-Hillman derivative was designed to obtain a reactive molecule capable of labelling basic amino acids. • This compound was promptly synthesized in three steps from commercially available intermediates. • This compound showed an intriguing photochemical activity, which was characterized by photophysical and NMR studies. • These results pave the way for the use of the derivative in the fluorogenic labeling of proteins.
