Homemade ECL Plus reagents?

[Sean Cutler]

Hi,

Does anyone know of a cheap source for the substrate used in the
Amersham ECL Plus kit? The compound diagrammed in their literature
(http://www.amersham.com/life/lsn/22/p6.html) looks as if it should be
called something like 'trifluorophenol-methylacridinium ester', but
that's just a guess.

Thanks,
