Synthesis, characterization, photochemical properties and cytotoxicity of the novel porphyrazine functionalized with nitroimidazolylbutylsulfanyl groups
摘要:
A novel porphyrazine analog possessing nitroimidazolylbutylsulfanyl groups was synthesized and characterized using UV-Vis, IR, MS MALDI and various NMR techniques. In addition, a computational model following the Density Functional Theory method (DFT) was applied to analyze the FT IR spectrum. Potential photosensitizing activity of the novel porphyrazine was evaluated by measuring its ability to generate singlet oxygen (Phi(Delta)), which was found to reach the value of 0.045 in DMF, and 0.035 in DMSO. A lower value of singlet oxygen generation in DMSO may result from the increased tendency to aggregate, which was studied in the UV-Vis and it was found to be stronger in DMSO than in DMF solutions. The investigation indicated no release of nitric oxide (NO) from porphyrazine functionalized with nitroimidazolylbutylsulfanyl groups. In vitro studies of the new compound were carried out to investigate photosensitizer-induced photocytotoxicity on two prostate human cancer cell lines, LNCaP, PC3, and one melanoma derived cell line, MeWo.

A new protocol using radical cyclisation has been developed for the synthesis of [1,2-c]-fused imidazoles and [1,2-a]-fused pyrroles. The intermediate nucleophilic N-alkyl radicals, generated using Bu3SnH from N-(omega-bromoalkyl) or N-[omega-(phenylselanyl)alkyl] imidazoles and pyrroles, undergo regioselective radical cyclisation onto the azole rings followed by oxidative re-aromatisation, (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.
