The invention relates to a polyamine micromolecular compound, comprising the following structures described in the specification, wherein M<x+> is 0, Zn<2+>, Ga<3+>, Gd<3+>, Ca<2+> or other divalent metal ions and trivalent metal ions; S is a reporter group (including a nuclide labeling prothetic group, a paramagnet, a fluorescein or a microvesicle), such as the nuclide labeling prothetic group: -<11>CH3, -CH2CH2<18>F, -CH2CH2(OCH2CH2)2NHCOC6H4<18>F-p or -CH2CH2(OCH2CH2)2NH-CH2CH2<18>F; R is -H, -OCH3, -OCH2CH3 or -Cl; and R1, R2, R3 and R4 are hydrogen, carboxyl, alkane, alkylene or heteroalkyl. The invention further relates to application of the compound in preparing cell death or apoptosis developers of target phosphatidyl serine (PS) and/or apoptotic cell early free Zn<2+>. The compound provided by the invention is a specific multiamine micromolecular developer for target phosphatidyl serine (PS) and/or apoptotic cell early free Zn<2+>, which can be used for monitoring curative effects of PS-related anti-tumor chemotherapy, radiotherapy, biological therapy and the like; the compound can be used for early differential diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases (senile dementia and Parkinson's disease), cerebral apoplexy, AIDS (Acquired immune deficiency syndrome), thrombus, atheromatous plaque and myocardial infarction; and the compound can also be used for differential diagnosis and curative effect monitoring of other diseases related to PS expression in the cell death or apoptosis process, such as inflammation development and anti-inflammation therapeutic development.
