Synthesis of uniformly 13C-labeled polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

ABSTRACT: Convergent synthetic pathways were devised for efficient synthesis of a series of uniformly (13)C labeled polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons de novo from U-(13)C-benzene and other simple commercially-available (13)C-starting compounds. All target products were obtained in excellent yields, including the alternant PAH U-(13)C-naphthalene, U-(13)C-phenanthrene, U-(13)C-anthracene, U-(13)C-benz[a]anthracene, U-(13)C-pyrene and the nonalternant PAH U-(13)C-fluoranthene.

HepG2 treated with Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)

Project description:Assessing the potential carcinogenicity of human toxins represents an ongoing challenge. Chronic rodent bioassays predict human cancer risk with limited reliability, and are expensive and time-consuming. To identify alternative prediction methods, we evaluated a transcriptomics-based human in vitro model to classify carcinogens by their modes of action. The aim of this study was to determine the transcriptomic response and identify specific molecular signatures of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which can be used as predictors of carcinogenicity of environmental toxins in human in vitro systems. We found that characteristic molecular signatures facilitate identification and prediction of carcinogens. To evaluate the change in gene expression levels, human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells were exposed to nine different PAHs (benzo[a]pyrene, dibenzo[a,h]anthracene, 3-methylcholanthrene, naphthalene, chrysene, phenanthrene, benzo[a]anthracene, benzo[k]fluoranthene, and indeno[1,2,3-c,d]pyrene) for 48 h. Gene expression analysis was conducted using a 44K whole human genome microarray (Agilent Technologies, USA).

An Approach to the Synthesis of Functionalized Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.

Project description:The application of a new benzannulation reaction for the regiocontrolled synthesis of functionalized chrysenes is reported. The initial benzannulation and the subsequent halogen displacement reactions are both highly regiospecific, which thereby enables the regiocontrolled synthesis of a variety of 4,10-disubstituted chrysenes from commercially available 1,5-dihydroxynaphthalene.

Effect of some polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on protein synthesis in vitro.

Project description:1. The effect of the strongly carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons benzo[a]pyrene, 3-methylcholanthrene and dibenz[a,h]anthracene and of the non-carcinogenic anthracene, pyrene and phenanthrene on protein synthesis was studied in vitro with subcellular systems from rat liver. 2. Both types of hydrocarbons affect amino acid activation and inhibit transfer of labelled amino acids from transfer RNA to ribosomes. 3. Only the carcinogenic compounds stimulate the incorporation of labelled algal-protein hydrolysate and of some individual amino acids into transfer RNA. The most active dose was 10mmug. under the conditions used. This effect is abolished by preincubation of pH5 enzymes with the carcinogens before the addition of radioactive amino acids. 4. The carcinogens stimulate the incorporation of some amino acids into ribosomal protein whereas the non-carcinogenic compounds have no such effects. 5. Polynucleotide-dependent stimulation of protein synthesis is greatly enhanced in the presence of the carcinogenic hydrocarbons when either free amino acids or transfer RNA charged with labelled amino acids are used. The non-carcinogenic compounds induce a partial inhibition of this process. 6. It is concluded, in agreement with other authors, that carcinogens may increase the number of active incorporation sites on both transfer and ribosomal RNA. Possible mechanisms of such an effect are discussed.

Zirconacyclopentadiene-Annulated Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.

Project description:Syntheses of large polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and graphene nanostructures demand methods that are capable of selectively and efficiently fusing large numbers of aromatic rings, yet such methods remain scarce. Herein, we report a new approach that is based on the quantitative intramolecular reductive cyclization of an oligo(diyne) with a low-valent zirconocene reagent, which gives a PAH with one or more annulated zirconacyclopentadienes (ZrPAHs). The efficiency of this process is demonstrated by a high-yielding fivefold intramolecular coupling to form a helical ZrPAH with 16 fused rings (from a precursor with no fused rings). Several other PAH topologies are also reported. Protodemetalation of the ZrPAHs allowed full characterization (including by X-ray crystallography) of PAHs containing one or more appended dienes with the ortho-quinodimethane (o-QDM) structure, which are usually too reactive for isolation and are potentially valuable for the fusion of additional rings by Diels-Alder reactions.

Structure elucidation of uniformly 13C labeled small molecule natural products.

Project description:Utilization of isotopically labeled proteins and peptides is a routinely employed approach in biomolecular NMR investigations. The widespread availability of inexpensive, uniformly (13) C-enriched glucose now makes it possible to produce uniformly (13) C-labeled natural products by microbial fermentation. In this feature article, the authors describe an experimental approach for the rapid structural characterization of uniformly (13) C-labeled natural products based on the Constant-Time HSQC (CT-HSQC) experiment. Rigorous theoretical evaluation of the CT-HSQC experiment allowed the applicability of the experiment to be expanded from the traditional, narrow scope of labeled amino acids to encompass virtually any small molecule or U-(13) C labeled natural product. A suite of experiments including CT-HSQC, (13) C-(13) C COSY, and COSYLR experiments is sufficient for the structure elucidation of uniformly (13) C-labeled small molecules and natural products. Differences in NMR approaches for structure elucidation of natural abundance and uniformly (13) C-labeled molecules are also discussed. The present work provides a researcher working in this area of natural products chemistry with NMR structure elucidation tools for investigating (13) C-labeled small molecules and natural products.

Photoredox Annulation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.

Project description:The rise of interest in using polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and molecular graphenoids in optoelectronics has recently stimulated the growth of modern synthetic methodologies giving access to intramolecular aryl-aryl couplings. Here, we show that a radical-based annulation protocol allows expansion of the planarization approaches to prepare functionalized molecular graphenoids. The enabler of this reaction is peri-xanthenoxanthene, the photocatalyst which undergoes photoinduced single electron transfer with an ortho-oligoarylenyl precursor bearing electron-withdrawing and nucleofuge groups. Dissociative electron transfer enables the formation of persistent aryl radical intermediates, the latter undergoing intramolecular C-C bond formation, allowing the planarization reaction to occur. The reaction conditions are mild and compatible with various electron-withdrawing and -donating substituents on the aryl rings as well as heterocycles and PAHs. The method could be applied to induce double annulation reactions, allowing the synthesis of π-extended scaffolds with different edge peripheries.

Extended O-Doped Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons.

Project description:The synthesis of O-doped benzorylenes, in which peripheral carbon atoms have been replaced by oxygen atoms, has been achieved for the first time. This includes key high-yielding ring-closure steps which, through intramolecular C-O bond formation, allow stepwise planarization of oligonaphthalenes. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction showed that the tetraoxa derivative forms remarkable face-to-face π-π stacks in the solid state, a favorable solid-state arrangement for organic electronics.
