The configuration of the copper complex of the glycopeptide bleomycin, CuBlm, is presumed to be pyramidal square planar from a previous X-ray structural determination of a fragment of cupric bleomycin. This study presents evidence for a difference in the ESR parameters for cupric bleomycin in the liquid as opposed to the solid state. A decrease in Aiso for CuBlm in the liquid state can be directly surmised from the low frequency S-band spectrum for which three of the four cupric hyperfine lines are partially resolved. Computer simulated spectra infer that the absolute value of All increases about 100 MHz and the value of Al may change sign for CuBlm in the liquid state. Simulations using a rotational correlation time of about 250 psec. indicate that CuBLM may not be spherical in the liquid phase. The fastest component for anisotropic motion could dominate and account for the well resolved cupric hyperfine structure. Furthermore, it is argued from an analysis of the cupric hyperfine coupling constants that the CuBlm structure opens up at room temperature and that the cupric ion is displaced from the square plane.  相似文献

The DNA binding orientation and dynamic behavior of Cu(II) complexes of 1,4,7-triazacyclononane ([9]aneN(3)), 1, and an acridine conjugate, 2, were investigated by DNA fiber EPR (EPR=electron paramagnetic resonance) spectroscopy. Crystal and molecular structure of 2 were determined by X-ray diffraction. It has been shown that 1 binds to DNA in two different modes at room temperature; one species is rapidly rotating and the other is immobilized randomly on the DNA. The introduction of acridine to [9]aneN(3) fixed the [Cu([9]aneN(3))](2+) moiety of 2 in two different environments on the DNA: the g(mid R:mid R:) axis of one species (g( parallel)=2.26) is aligned perpendicularly to the DNA fiber axis whereas that of the other (g( parallel)=2.24) aligns<90 degrees with the DNA fiber axis. The different DNA binding structures of 1 and 2 are reflected also in their different efficiencies of DNA cleavage; 2 was found to be more effective both in oxidative and hydrolytic cleavage reactions.  相似文献

Abstract

The configuration of the copper complex of the glycopeptide bleomycin, CuBlm, is presumed to be pyramidal square planar from a previous X-ray structural determination of a fragment of cupric bleomycin. This study presents evidence for a difference in the ESR parameters for cupric bleomycin in the liquid as opposed to the solid state. A decrease in Aiso for CuBlm in the liquid state can be directly surmised from the low frequency S-band spectrum for which three of the four cupric hyperfine lines are partially resolved. Computer simulated spectra infer that the absolute value of A increases about 100 MHz and the value of A may change sign for CuBlm in the liquid state. Simulations using a rotational correlation time of about 250 psec. indicate that CuBLM may not be spherical in the liquid phase. The fastest component for anisotropic motion could dominate and account for the well resolved cupric hyperfine structure. Furthermore, it is argued from an analysis of the cupric hyperfine coupling constants that the CuBlm structure opens up at room temperature and that the cupric ion is displaced from the square plane.

DNA-fiber EPR spectroscopy and its application to studies of the DNA binding orientation and dynamic properties of Cu(II) ions and their complexes with amino acids and peptides are reviewed. Cu(II) ions bind in at least two different binding modes; one mode was mobile while the other mode fixed the orientation of the coordination plane. The hydroxyl groups of L-Ser and L-Thr fixed the coordination plane of their respective Cu(II) complexes parallel to the DNA base pair plane, whereas Cu(II) complexes of Lys and Arg induced several binding modes, depending on the tertiary structure of the DNA and the chirality of the amino acids. Unusually broadened signals observed for the His complex were assigned to a mono-L-His complex stacked stereospecifically along the DNA double helix. In comparison, Cu(II). Xaa-Xaa' -His type complexes oriented in the minor groove with different affinities and extents of randomness depending on the Xaa-Xaa' sequence and the chirality of Xaa or Xaa' while the C-terminal Xaa residues in Cu(II).Arg-Gly-His-Xaa (Xaa=L-Leu or L-Glu) decreased the stereospecificity and the stability of the complexes bound to DNA. In contrast to Xaa-Xaa'- His complexes, the coordination planes of Cu(II).Gly-L-His-Gly and Cu(II).Gly-L-His-L-Lys complexes were found to lie parallel to the DNA-fiber axis. Dinuclear Cu(II).carnosine complexes were also shown to bind to DNA stereospecifically.  相似文献

Three new ternary peptide-Cu(II)-1,10-phenanthroline (phen) complexes, [Cu(L-ala-gly)(phen)].3.5H(2)O 1, [Cu(L-val-gly)(phen)] 2 and [Cu(gly-L-trp)(phen)].2H(2)O 3, have been prepared and structurally characterised. These compounds exist as distorted square pyramidal complexes with the five co-ordination sites occupied by the tridentate peptide dianion and the two heterocyclic nitrogens of the phenanthroline ligand. The bulk of the lateral chain in the peptide moiety determines the relative disposition of the phen ligand. Thus, in [Cu(L-val-gly)(phen)] 2, the phenanthroline plane is deviated towards the opposite side of the isopropyl group of the L-valine moiety. On the other hand, in [Cu(gly-L-trp)(phen)].2H(2)O 3 the absence of stacking interactions between phen and indole rings and the presence of an intramolecular CH...pi interaction should be pointed out. These complexes exhibit significant differences in their nuclease activity which depends on the nature of the peptidic moiety, the complex [Cu(gly-L-trp) (phen)].2H(2)O 3 being the most active.  相似文献

The copper(II) complex of the clinically used antitumor agent bleomycin (Blm) has cytotoxic as well as antitumor properties. To understand the relationship of the bleomycin ligand, copper bleomycin, and other possible metal complexes of this agent, kinetic studies of the formation of Cu(II)Blm, ligand substitution reactions of CuBlm with ethylenediaminetetraaletic acid, and the redox reaction of CuBlm with thiols have been completed and interpreted along with previous studies of the thermodynamic stability of Cu2+ with bleomycin. Cu(II)Bm is found to be kinetically and thermodynamically stable in ligand substitution processes and is only slowly reduced and dissociated by sulfhydryl reagents. The rate constant of reduction of the complex by 2-mercaptoethanol (2-ME) at pH 7.4 and 25 degrees C is 9.5 X 10(-3) M-1 sec-1, explaining the inhibition of Fe2+-dependent strand scission of DNA by Cu2+ in the presence of 2-ME. CuBlm forms in preference to Fe(II)Blm and cannot be reduced and dissociated rapidly enough by thiols to liberate Blm and form the reactive iron complex. In agreement with the observed chemical stability of CuBlm, it is also shown that the complex is stable in human plasma and in the presence of Ehrlich cells suspended in ascites fluid. Interestingly, little CuBlm enters these cells to carry out cytotoxic reactions. Finally, it is shown that both Cu2+ and Zn2+, at equivalent concentrations to Fe2+, effectively inhibit the strand scission of DNA by Fe(II)Blm plus oxygen. However, at substoichiometric amounts of Cu2+, the ferroxidase activity of Blm enables the drug to remain effective in the strand-scission reaction, despite the lowered Cu-free Blm/Fe2+ ratio. These results are discussed in light of the proposed mechanism of action of bleomycin.  相似文献

Two asymmetric tridentate copper(II) complexes, [Cu(dppt)Cl(2)].0.25H(2)O (1) (dppt=3-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-5,6-diphenyl-as-triazine) and [Cu(pta)Cl(2)] (2) (pta=3-(1,10-phenanthrolin-2-yl)-as-triazino[5,6-f]acenaphthylene), have been prepared and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and Fast atomic bombardment mass spectra. Complex 1 has also been structurally characterized. The complexes exist as distorted square pyramid with five co-ordination sites occupied by the tridentate ligand and the two chlorine anions. DNA interaction studies suggest that the ligand planarity of the complex has a significant effect on DNA binding affinity increasing in the order [Cu(dppt)Cl(2)]< [Cu(pta)Cl(2)]. In the presence of ascorbate or glutathione, the two complexes are found to cause significant cleavage of double-strand pBR 322 DNA and [Cu(pta)Cl(2)] exhibited the higher cleaving efficiency.  相似文献

The orientation of mono(1,10-phenanthroline)copper(II), [Cu(phen)]2+, and the ternary complexes with amino acids, [Cu(phen)X(aa)]n+, where X(aa) stands for an alpha-amino acid, has been investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra of the complexes on DNA fibers. It has been revealed that these complexes bind to DNA with several different binding modes. The observation of a species whose g axis is almost parallel to the DNA double helical axis has suggested that the phenanthroline moiety intercalates to DNA. An absence of the intercalated species for the corresponding 2,2'-bipyridine complex has shown that the three-fused aromatic rings in phenanthroline are critical for the intercalative binding of the complexes. The intercalative binding was promoted by 5,6-dimethyl groups on the phenanthroline ring, whereas it was disturbed by 2,9-dimethyl groups, indicating that the planarity of the coordination sphere is important for the intercalative binding. In all cases, the amount of the non-intercalated species was larger than that of the intercalated one. The amino acids in the ternary complexes of glycine, leucine, serine, threonine, cysteine, methionine, and asparagine were partly substituted with some coordinating groups in DNA, whereas the ternary complexes of lysine, arginine, and glutamine remained intact on DNA.  相似文献

EPR data are used to describe the conformation and identity of the atoms coordinated to Cu(II) in Cu(II)-bleomycin bound to oriented DNA fibers. The fibers were slowly drawn from viscous solutions of Cu(II)-bleomycin-DNA containing one Cu(II)-bleomycin to 200 basepairs. EPR measurements were made at room temperature and 90 K for different orientations of the external magnetic field with respect to the helical axes of the fibers. The g-values (g parallel = 2.21, g perpendicular = 2.04) and the hyperfine constant (A parallel = 175 G) are consistent with values expected for Cu(II) chelated to a square planar array of ligands. In the oriented fibers, the square planar arrays do not all have the same orientations with respect to the fiber axes. At room temperature the chelated ions have rotational freedom in which the normal to the planar array has almost complete freedom of rotation about axes perpendicular to the DNA fiber axes. The normal maintains an angle of 75 degrees with respect to the axis, in the plane of the basepair, about which it rotates. Nine superhyperfine peaks on the high field side of the EPR spectrum were partially resolved. The number and splitting (12 G) of these superhyperfine peaks indicate that four nitrogen atoms are chelated to Cu(II) in a square planar array. These data on Cu(II)-bleomycin bound to DNA give information on the orientation of the metal-containing portion of bleomycin which lies outside to double helix.  相似文献

Novel 2-oxo-1,2-dihydroquinoline-3-carbaldehyde (4′-methylbenzoyl) hydrazone (H2L) (1) and its two copper(II) complexes have been synthesized. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies revealed that the structure of the new copper(II) chloride complex, [Cu(H2L)Cl2]·2H2O (2), is square pyramidal and that of the copper(II) nitrate complex, [Cu(HL)NO3]·DMF (3), is square planar. In 2, the copper atom is coordinated by the ligand with ONO donor atoms, one chloride ion in the apical position, and the other chloride in the basal plane. In 3, the ligand coordinates as a uninegative tridentate ONO species and with one nitrate ion in the basal plane. DNA binding experiments indicated that the ligand and copper(II) complexes can interact with DNA through intercalation. Bovine serum albumin binding studies revealed that the compounds strongly quench the intrinsic fluorescence of bovine serum albumin through a static quenching process. Antioxidative activity tests showed that 1 and its copper(II) complexes have significant radical scavenging activity against free radicals. Cytotoxic activities of the ligand and copper(II) complexes showed that the two copper(II) complexes exhibited more effective cytotoxic activity against HeLa and HEp-2 cells than the corresponding ligand. The entire biological activity results showed that the activity order was 1 < 2 < 3.  相似文献

A new series of complexes of the type [Cu(dien)(2a-2tzn)Y(2)] and [Cu(dienXX)(2a-2tzn)Y(2)], where dien=diethylenetriamine and dienXX=Schiff dibase of diethylenetriamine formed with 2-furaldehyde (dienOO), 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde (dienSS), or pyrrol-2-carboxaldehyde (dienNN); Y=Cl, Br or NO(3); and 2a-2tzn=2-amino-2-thiazoline, were synthesized and their structure established by C, H, N and Cu analysis; IR and electronic spectra; magnetic susceptibility; and molar conductivity. The isolated complexes are monomers, paramagnetic, and electrolytes of types 1:1 or 1:2. In both types of solid state complexes, [Cu(dien)(2a-2tzn)Y(2)] and [Cu(dienXX)(2a-2tzn)Y(2)], dien and its Schiff dibases are bonded to Cu(II) in a tridentate fashion through 3N atoms. The coordination sphere is completed by the endocyclic nitrogen of the thiazoline moiety and by two Cl, Br, or NO(3) groups with distorted octahedral geometry. The proposed structure of these compounds was supported by X-ray analysis of [Cu(dien)(Br)(2a-2tzn)](Br)(H(2)O). The coordination polyhedron around the copper atom can be described as a distorted square pyramid [Cu(dien)(Br)(2a-2tzn)](+). Its basal plane is occupied by the four nitrogen atoms of the dien and thiazoline ligands with Cu-N distances ranging between 1.996(6) and 2.032(3)A, and the axial position is occupied by one of the two bromine atoms (Br1) with a Cu1-Br1 bond distance of 2.782(1)A. The second bromine atom (Br2) is 4.694(2)A from the copper atom, which exists as a discrete anion and is responsible for the cationic nature of the complex. Results regarding toxicity, antitumor, and anti-inflammatory activities of the investigated compounds are promising and allow the selection of a lead compound for further biological studies.  相似文献

A series of acylhydrazones of salicylaldehyde and their transition metal complexes, predominantly copper(II), have been prepared and characterized. The crystal structure of the Cu(II) complex of the sterically hindered t-butyl derivative contains a phenolato bridged dimer with the ligand coordinated as a tridentate moiety. QSAR analyses of the cytotoxicity of the chelators and their Cu(II) complexes reveals that solubility is the dominant factor for activity. Compounds display a maximum with respect to lipophilicity, allowing optimization of the bioactivity for both the ligands and their complexes. Copper complexes are significantly more cytotoxic than the metal-free ligands and complexes of other metals: Cu > Ni > Zn = Mn > Fe = Cr > Cr > Co.  相似文献

The DNA-bound orientations of Cu(II) x Xaa-Gly-L-His metallopeptides (where Xaa is Gly, L-Lys or L-Arg) were investigated by DNA fiber EPR spectroscopy and molecular modeling. Observed and calculated EPR spectra indicated that the g// axes of 1:1 Cu(II) complexes of the tripeptides tilted about 50 degrees from the DNA fiber axis. These results suggest that the complexes are stereospecifically oriented in the DNA minor groove. Although the side chain of the N-terminal amino acid residue did not affect the orientation of the DNA-bound complexes, it contributed to their stability in the presence of DNA; the Cu(II) complex of Gly-Gly-L-His was found to dissociate to hydrated Cu(II) ion more extensively than the respective L-Lys-Gly-L-His and L-Arg-Gly-L-His complexes. The ionic interaction between the positively charged lysine or arginine residues and the negatively charged DNA phosphodiester backbone may result in the reduced dissociation of these complexes when bound to the DNA minor groove.  相似文献

A complex between the lac repressor headpiece and a fully symmetric tight-binding 22 bp lac operator was studied by 2D NMR. Several 2D NOE spectra were recorded for the complex in both H2O and 2H2O. Many NOE cross-peaks between the headpiece and DNA could be identified, and changes in the chemical shift of the DNA protons upon complex formation were analyzed. Comparison of these data with those obtained for a complex between the headpiece and a 14 bp half-operator, studied previously [Boelens, R., Scheek, R. M., Lamerichs, R. M. J. N., de Vlieg, J., van Boom, J. H., & Kaptein, R. (1987) in DNA-ligand interactions (Guschlbauer, W., & Saenger, W., Eds.) pp 191-215, Plenum, New York], shows that two headpieces form a specific complex with the 22 bp lac operator in which each headpiece binds in the same way as found for the 14 bp complex. The orientation of the recognition helix in the major groove of DNA in these complexes is opposite with respect to the dyad axis to that found for other repressors.  相似文献

The molecular oxygen adduct of Co(II)-bleomycin is stable for long periods when bound to salmon sperm DNA at large ratios of polymer to drug. According to ESR studies of orientation of the paramagnetic complex associated with DNA fibers, the oxygen-oxygen bond is restricted to a plane perpendicular to the fiber axis. Thus, one can define three g values for the adduct 2.104, 2.016, and 2.000, one parallel to the fiber axis and two orthogonal to it. There is no change in orientation over the range of 77 K to ambient temperature. Furthermore, there is no difference in results at a series of relative humidities ranging from less than 76% where bulk DNA alone assumes an A conformation to 95% where it is primarily B DNA. A structural model is presented for the geometry of the metal binding domain of O2-Co-bleomycin in relationship to the fiber axis of DNA.  相似文献

We screened the National Cancer Institute Diversity Set compound collection for small molecules that affect mammalian cell migration and identified NSC 295642 as an inhibitor of cell motility with nanomolar potency. We found by LC-MS and X-ray crystallography that NSC 295642, a Cu(II) complex of the Schiff base product of condensation of S-benzyl dithiocarbazate and 2-acetylpyridine, has a bridged dimeric Cu2Cl2(L)2 structure with distorted square pyramidal geometry. Each of the two copper atoms is five-coordinated to one of the two tridentate chelating ligands and both bridging chlorine atoms. To define structure-activity relationships,we investigated the bioactivity of related metal-ligand complexes derived from different metal(II) atoms and different ligands. Complexation of the NSC 295642 ligand with Zn(II) or Ni(II), delivered as metal(II) chloride salts under conditions identical to those used for preparation of the original Cu(II) complex, instead results in distorted octahedral bis-chelate structures, where a single metal atom is six-coordinated to two ligands. The Zn(L)2 complex possesses a potency similar to that of the Cu2Cl2(L)2 complex, while the Ni(L)2 has no antimigratory activity at all. We carried out density functional theory calculations to obtain the electronic ground state geometry of the complexes, both in vacuum and implicit water solvent. The X-ray crystal and energy-minimized structures are very similar and exhibit a transoid orientation of the S-benzyl groups relative to the central metal-coordinated rings for both of the bioactive Cu2Cl2(L)2 and Zn(L)2 complexes, despite their different coordination geometries. In contrast, the biologically inactive Ni(L)2 complex adopts a cisoid conformation. Varying the ligand structure, we found that hydrophobic S-alkylaryl groups are required for activity. Complexes with a simple S-methyl group, S-benzyl groups with polar substitutions or a carboxylated pyridine ring exhibit dramatically reduced activity. We tested the most potent metal-ligand complex in a number of cancer cell lines and found cell-type selectivity in its effect on cell motility. Collectively, these results suggest that a two-ligand structure with bulky nonpolar S-substituents in a transoid conformation is important for the antimigratory activity of these metal-ligand complexes.  相似文献

Copper(II) complexes of three linear unsymmetrical tridentate ligands viz. N-methyl-N'-(pyrid-2-ylmethyl)ethylenediamine (L1), N,N-dimethyl-N'-(pyrid-2-ylmethyl)ethylenediamine (L2) and N,N-dimethyl-N'-((6-methyl)pyrid-2-ylmethyl)ethylenediamine (L3) have been isolated and characterized by elemental analysis, electronic absorption and EPR spectroscopy and cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. Of these complexes [Cu(L2)Cl2] and [Cu(L3)Cl2] have been structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. The [Cu(L2)Cl2] complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/n with a=11.566(2) A, b=7.369(1) A, c=15.703(3) A, alpha=90 degrees , beta=109.68(8) degrees , gamma=90 degrees and Z=4 while [Cu(L3)Cl2] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 with a=9.191(2) A, b=12.359(3) A, c=14.880(3) A, alpha=79.61(13) degrees , beta=86.64(13) degrees , gamma=87.28(8) degrees and Z=2. The coordination geometries around copper (II) in these two complexes are best described as trigonal bipyramidal distorted square based pyramidal (TBDSBP). The distorted CuN3Cl basal plane in them is comprised of three nitrogen atoms of the meridionally coordinated ligand and a chloride ion and the axial position is occupied by the other chloride ion. The interaction of these complexes with Calf Thymus DNA (CT DNA) has been studied by using absorption, emission and circular dichroic spectral methods, thermal denaturation studies, viscometry and cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. A strong blueshift in the ligand field band and a redshift in the ligand based bands of the copper(II) complexes on binding to DNA imply a covalent mode of DNA binding of the complexes, which involves coordination of most possibly guanine N7 nitrogen of DNA to form a CuN4 chromophore. This is supported by studying the interaction of the complexes with N-methylimidazole (N-meim), guanosine monophosphate (GMP), adenosine monophosphate (AMP) and cytidine (cytd) by ligand field and EPR spectral methods, which indicate the formation of a CuN4 chromophore only in the case of the more basic N-meim and GMP. The DNA melting curves obtained in the presence of copper(II) complexes reveal a monophasic and irreversible melting of the DNA strands and the high positive DeltaTm values (12-21 degrees C) also support the formation of strong Cu-N bonds by the complexes with DNA, leading to intra- and/or interstrand crosslinking of DNA. Competitive ethidium bromide (EthBr) binding studies show that the L2 and L3 complexes are less efficient than the L1 complex in quenching EthBr emission, which is consistent with their forming DNA crosslinking preventing the displacement of the DNA-bound EthBr. A very slight decrease in relative viscosity of DNA is observed on treating the L1 and L2 complexes with CT DNA; however, a relatively significant decrease is observed for the L3 complex suggesting that the length of the DNA fiber is shortened. DNA cleavage experiments show that all the complexes induce the cleavage of pBR322 plasmid DNA, the complex of L1 being more efficient than those of sterically hindered L2 and L3 ligands.  相似文献

Binding structures of metal complexes of deglyco-peplomycin (dPEP) on DNA were investigated by comparing dPEP complexes with those of bleomycin (BLM) using DNA fiber EPR spectroscopy. A low spin species of Fe(III)dPEP observed in the DNA pellet changed irreversibly to several high spin species after the fabrication of the DNA fibers. The g values of the high spin species were different from those of Fe(III)BLM. The high spin species could not be nitrosylated reductively to ON-Fe(II)dPEP, suggesting that some nitrogen atoms coordinated to the Fe(III) were displaced on the DNA fibers. On the other hand, O(2)-Co(II)dPEP remained intact on the fibers similarly to O(2)-Co(II)BLM but with an increased randomness in the orientation on the DNA. In contrast to Cu(II)BLM, a considerable amount of Cu(II)dPEP bound almost randomly on B-form DNA fibers. These results indicated that the sugar moiety in peplomycin or bleomycin is playing an important role in enhancing the stability of the metal-binding domain and in the stereospecificity of the binding on DNA.  相似文献

Ternary copper(II) complex [Cu(TAN)(O2CMe)] (1), where H-TAN is 1-(2-thiazolylazo)-2-naphthol, is prepared and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography. The complex has a distorted square pyramidal (4+1) CuN2O3 coordination geometry with the acetate showing chelating axial-equatorial binding mode and TAN as a tridentate ligand bonded to the metal in the basal plane. Complex 1 is one-electron paramagnetic and displays ligand-to-metal charge transfer bands at 575 and 398 nm in dimethylformamide. The reactions of 1 with bases (B) like 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) and kanamycin-A (kan-A) afford ternary complexes of formulation [Cu(TAN)B]+ (B=phen, 2; kan-A, 3) under in situ reaction conditions. Complexes 2 and 3, prepared to explore their DNA binding and photo-induced DNA cleavage activity, display good binding propensity to calf thymus (CT) DNA giving a relative order: 2-3>1. The apparent binding constant (Kapp) for 1 is determined as 9.8 x 10(5)M(-1) from fluorescence quenching experiments using ethidium bromide. The quenching constants (K) values of 1-3, obtained from the Stern-Volmer plots, are 0.28, 0.52 and 0.49, respectively. All the complexes show photo-induced DNA cleavage activity when irradiated with a monochromatic UV light of 365 nm wavelength. A 200 microM complex 1 cleaves approximately 75% supercoiled (SC) DNA on 2h exposure time at 365 nm. A 50 microM solution of 1 in presence of 100 microM phen and kanamycin-A cleaves approximately 99% and approximately 60% SC DNA to its nicked circular form, respectively, for an exposure of 30 min. The complexes also exhibit significant cleavage of SC DNA on irradiation with visible light of wavelengths 532, 575 and 632.8 nm. Control experiments reveal the minor groove binding nature of the complexes. The cleavage reactions involve the formation reactive hydroxyl species as significant inhibition in the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and catalase is observed. There is no apparent inhibition in cleavage in the presence of singlet oxygen quenchers like sodium azide. The cleavage activity has been found to be higher at the CT band position of 575 nm in comparison to those at 532 and 632.8 nm. The results indicate the involvement of the CT band in the photo-excitation process.  相似文献

In order to better understand copper mediated oxidative chemistry via ligand-Cu(I)/O(2) reactivity employing S-donor ligands for copper, O(2)-reactivity studies of the copper(I) complexes (1 and 2, Chart 2) have been carried out with a tridentate N(2)S thiol ligand (1-(N-methyl-N-(2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl)amino)propane-2-thiol; L(SH)) or its oxidized disulfide form (L(SS)). Reactions of [L(SH)Cu(I)](+) (1) and [L(SS)(Cu(I))(2)(X)(2)](2+) (2) with O(2) give approximately 90% and approximately 70% yields of [L(SO3)Cu(II)(MeOH)(2)](+) (3), respectively, where L(SO3) is S-oxygenated sulfonate; 3 was characterized by electrospray ionization (ESI) mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography. Mimicking TyrCys galactose oxidase cofactor biogenesis, a new C-S bond is formed (within new thioether moiety L(SPhOH)) from cuprous complex (both 1 and 2) dioxygen reactivity in the presence of 2,4-tBu(2)-phenolate. In addition, the disulfide ligand (L(SS)) reacts with 2equiv. cupric ion salts and the phenolate to efficiently give the cross-linked product L(SPhOH) in high yield (>90%) under anaerobic conditions. Separately, complex [L(SPhO)Cu(II)(ClO(4))] (4), possessing the cross-linked L(SPhOH), was characterized by ESI mass spectrometry and X-ray crystallography.  相似文献
