N-Aroyloxylthioxo-naphthalimides as DNA photocleavers of aroyloxyl oxygen radicals: synthesis, evaluation, and substituents’ effect
摘要:
Novel N-Aroyloxylthioxo-naphthalimides as highly efficient 'time-resolved' DNA photocleavers of aroyloxyl radicals type were designed and synthesized. The substituents at the aroyloxyl moiety have an important and unusual influence on the DNA photocleavage, and DNA photodamages of the compounds were unusually not depended on the electronic effects of substituents on the corresponding oxygen-centered radicals. With AM1 semi-empirical quantum calculation, it was found that their photocleaving activities were correlated with the densities of electron clouds on the N-O bonds in the triplet state. N-(m-Diehloro-benzoyloxy)thioxo-naphthalimide could photodamage DNA effectively at less than the concentration of 2 mum. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A novel DNA photocleaver family of N-benzovloxythioxonaphthalimides. which show improved DNA intercalation and photocleaving activity compared with their oxo- counterparts, were synthesized and evaluated. The substituents on the benzene ring of the benzoyloxy moiety have an important and unusual influence on the DNA photocleaving activity. N-(p-Methoxylbenzovloxy)thioxonaphthalimide is able to photocleave DNA at low concentration (5 muM) with 'time-resolved' and pH independent properties. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ltd.
