This delay in onset of action might be explained by the high lipophilicity that leads to distribution out of blood, or as they are prodrugs that metabolized via N-Dealkylation into the active forms (M1).

An excellent fluorescent probe for A[beta] plaques must meet the following requirements [18, 21, 23]: (1) selective targeting of A[beta] plaques, (2) acceptable lipophilicity (log P value between 1 and 3), (3) high-affinity binding, (4) straightforward synthesis, and (5) a significant change in fluorescent properties upon binding to A[beta] deposits.
