Several analogues of the 9-phenylthioxanthyl (S-pixyl) photocleavable protecting group have been synthesized, containing substituents on the 9-aryl ring and on the thioxanthyl backbone. Each analogue protected the 5'-hydroxy moiety of thymidine in good to excellent yield. The protected substrates were deprotected in 1:1 water: acetonitrile with irradiation at 300 nm, resulting in recovered thymidine in excellent yield, except for the nitro-substituted analogues which gave substantially lower yields. Substrates with 2,7-dibromo or 3-methoxy substitution on the thioxanthyl backbone were also deprotected efficiently with irradiation at 350 nm. Shorter irradiation times were observed in the less nucleophilic solvent mixture of 1:9 trifluoroethanol:acetonitrile, with no formation of secondary photooxidation products. Photodeprotection with high yields was also achieved in the absence of solvent, with no secondary photoproducts.

Triphenylmethyl radical reacts with dioxygen in dichloromethane with a second-order rate constant of 1.1 x 10(7) dm(3) mol(-1) s(-1) at 298 K and an Arrhenius activation energy of -4.1 kcal mol(-1). 4-Phenyl-substituted thioxanthyl radicals are somewhat less reactive toward dioxygen in acetonitrile (second-order rate constants from 1.4 x 10(5) to 3.2 x 10(5) dm3 mol(-1) s(-1) at 298 K with Arrhenius activation energies of about -3 kcal mol(-1)). A weak substituent effect (p=-0.45) was observed for the latter reaction series. The major products of these reactions are the corresponding carbonyl compounds, benzophenone and thioxanthone, believed to form by rearrangement after rate determining adduct formation between the radicals and dioxygen. The mechanism of adduct formation is believed to occur in two steps involving the formation of a complex in a pre-equilibrium followed by bond formation.

We report herein the design, preparation and first applications of novel trityl tags with adjustable stability, efficient as protecting groups or MS analytes.
Hydrochromism of thioxanthylium cations/ thioxanthene-9-ol can be tuned by structural functionalization to offer diverse colors and moisture-sensitivities. This reversible hydrochromic system is easily activated with organic acid from chemically stable precursors, allowing for possible uses in moisture-sensing and anti-counterfeiting encryption.
