Synthesis and application of molecular probe for detection of hydroxyl radicals produced by Na(125)I and gamma-rays in aqueous solution.

ABSTRACT: To synthesize N-(3-(3-aminopropylamino)propyl)-2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carboxamide (7), a novel DNA-binding, coumarin-based, fluorescent hydroxylradical ((*)OH) indicator and to assess its quantum efficiency compared with that of coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (1) and N1,N12-bis[2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carbonyl]- 1,12-diamine-4,9-diazadodecane (9).Using computer-generated molecular modeling, 7 and 9 and their respective 7-hydroxylated derivatives 8 and 10 were docked onto DNA dodecamer d(CGCGAATTCGCG)2, the ligand-DNA complexes were energy minimized, and binding free energies and inhibition constants were calculated. Compound 7 was judged an appropriate target molecule and was synthesized. Compounds 1, 7, and 9 were incubated with Na(125)I or irradiated with (137)Cs gamma-rays, and the influence of pH, dose, type of radiation, and the concentration of indicator on fluorescence yield were determined.Non-fluorescent 7 and 9 are converted to fluorescent, 7-hydroxylated derivatives 8 and 10 after interaction with (*)OH in aqueous solution. For 1, 7, and 9, hydroxylation yield increases linearly with both Na(125)I dose (0-700 x 10(6) decays) and (137)Cs dose (0-11.0 Gy). Fluorescence induction is significantly reduced at acidic pH and the fluorescent quantum yield of 8 is approximately 3 times that of 2 or 10 at pH 7.0. With Na(125)I incubation and gamma-ray irradiation, the fluorescence signal of 7 increases linearly with concentration and saturates at approximately 50 microM.Compound 7 quantifies lower concentrations of (*)OH than do 1 and 9. This detector is therefore likely to be a good reporter of (*)OH produced within a few nanometers of DNA.

Project description:In this study, steady-state and time-resolved radiolysis methods were used to determine the primary reaction pathways and kinetic parameters for the reactions of hydroxyl radical with microcystin-LR (MC-LR). The fundamental kinetic data is critical for the accurate evaluation of hydroxyl-radical based technologies for the destruction of this problematic class of cyanotoxins. The bimolecular rate constant for the reaction of hydroxyl radical with MC-LR is 2.3 (+/-0.1) x 10(10) M(-1)s(-1) based on time-resolved competition kinetics with SCN-at low conversions using pulsed radiolysis experiments. The reaction of hydroxyl radical with MC-LR can occur via a number of competing reaction pathways, including addition to the benzene ring and diene and abstraction of aliphatic hydrogen atoms. LC-MS analyses indicate the major products from the reaction of hydroxyl radicals with MC-LR involve addition of hydroxyl radical to the benzene ring and diene moieties of the Adda side chain. Transient absorption spectroscopy monitored between 260-500 nm, following pulsed hydroxyl radical generation, indicate the formation of a transient species with absorption maxima at 270 and 310 nm. The absorption maxima and lifetime of the transient species are characteristic of hydroxycyclohexadienyl radicals resulting from the addition of hydroxyl radical to the benzene ring. The rate constant for the formation of hydroxycyclohexadienyl radical is 1.0 (+/-0.1) x 10(10) M(-1)s(-1) accounting for approximately 40% of the primary reaction pathways. Representative rate constants and partitioning of hydroxyl radical reactions were assessed based on the reactivities of surrogate substrates and individual amino acids. Summation of the individual reactivities of hydroxyl radical at the different reactive sites (amino acids) leads to a rate constant of 2.1 x 10(10) M(-1) s(-1) in good agreementwith the rate constant determined in our studies. The relative magnitude of the rate constants for the reactions of hydroxyl radical with the individual amino acids and appropriate surrogates, suggest 60-70% reactions of hydroxyl radical occur at the benzene and diene functional groups of the Adda moiety.
