Photoremovable protecting groups: reaction mechanisms and applications.
Photolabile protecting groups enable biochemists to control the release of bioactive compounds in living tissue. 'Caged compounds' (photoactivatable bioagents) have become an important tool to study the events that follow chemical signalling in, e.g., cell biology and the neurosciences. The possibilities are by no means exhausted. Progress will depend on the development of photoremovable protec...
متن کاملThe p-Hydroxyphenacyl Photoremovable Protecting Group
This review is intended to provide the reader who is interested in the historical development of the recent research on photoremovable protecting groups, phototriggers, and “caged” compounds and to provide some insight into the genesis of our entry into the field through our most recent discoveries. Several other investigations have paralleled our development of a photoremovable protecting grou...
متن کاملWater-soluble o-hydroxycinnamate as an efficient photoremovable protecting group of alcohols with fluorescence reporting.
Two new o-hydroxycinnamates have been prepared for photoremovable protecting groups, and their photochemistry has been investigated. The photolysis of two caged compounds can efficiently release the corresponding alcohol in aqueous solutions, and the uncaging reaction proceeds with large one-photon excitation cross sections (1919 and 1535 M(-1) cm(-1)). The uncaging process has been observed by...
متن کاملAn Efficient Photo-SET-Induced Cleavage of Dithiane-Carbonyl Adducts and Its Relevance to the Development of Photoremovable Protecting Groups for Ketones and Aldehydes
Irradiation of dithiane-aldehyde/ketone adducts in the presence of benzophenone leads to C-C bond cleavage regenerating the carbonyl compounds. It is established that the mechanism of this reaction involves photochemically induced single electron transfer from the dithiane moiety to the excited molecule of ET-photosensitizer, accompanied by mesolytic C-C cleavage in the generated cation-radical...
متن کامل8-Bromo-7-hydroxyquinoline as a photoremovable protecting group for physiological use: mechanism and scope.
Two-photon excitation (2PE) of "caged" biomolecules represents a powerful method to investigate the temporal and spatial relevance of physiological function in real time and on living tissue, because the excitation volume can be restricted to 1 fL. Additionally, low-energy IR light is used, which minimizes tissue destruction and enables deeper penetration into tissue preparations. Exploitation ...
