Selective chemical modification of DNA with alkoxy- and benzyloxyamines.

چکیده
A new method for the selective chemical modification of DNA at cytosine nucleobases using alkoxy- and benzyloxyamines is presented. It is shown that in particular benzyloxyamines are effective DNA modifying agents, giving rise to almost exclusive formation of the mono addition products. By using a bifunctional derivative, that is, p-azidobenzyloxyamine hydrochloride, an azide moiety, which is a convenient handle for further functionalization, could be introduced into the DNA. The azido modified DNA was then further reacted in a copper(I)-monophos catalysed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition. These results illustrate the potential of the presented method for application in site and chemo-selective modification of DNA.

Ethenesulfonamide derivatives, a novel class of orally active endothelin-A receptor antagonists.
In the present article we wish to report the discovery of a novel class of ET(A)-selective endothelin (ET) receptor antagonists through the modification of the ET(A)/ET(B) non-selective antagonist, Ro47-0203 (Bosentan, 1). Replacement of the benzenesulfonamide group of 1 with a 2-phenylethenesulfonamide group gave compound 5a and resulted in improvement in ET(A)-selectivity. Optimization of the...
متن کاملStructural specificity of alkoxy radical formation in crystalline carbohydrates.
A DFT study of radiation induced alkoxy radical formation in crystalline α-l-rhamnose has been performed to better understand the processes leading to selective radical formation in carbohydrates upon exposure to ionizing radiation at low temperatures. The apparent specificity of radiation damage to carbohydrates is of great interest for understanding radiation damage processes in the ribose ba...

Exposure of 3-phenylpropyl ethers to an activated iodosylbenzene monomer·18-crown-6 complex [PhI(OH)BF(4)·18C6] in the presence of BF(3)-Et(2)O and water results in the para-selective monofluorination of benzene ring via neighboring alkoxy group participation and directly affords 3-(4-fluorophenyl)propyl ethers regioselectively in good yields.
متن کاملEpigenetic: A missing paradigm in cellular and molecular pathways of sulfur mustard lung: a prospective and comparative study
Sulfur mustard (SM, bis- (2-chloroethyl) sulphide) is a chemical warfare agent that causes DNA alkylation, protein modification and membrane damage. SM can trigger several molecular pathways involved in inflammation and oxidative stress, which cause cell necrosis and apoptosis, and loss of cells integrity and function. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is a growing research topic and is ...
متن کاملStructural modification of sanguinarine and chelerythrine and their in vitro acaricidal activity against Psoroptes cuniculi.
Sanguinarine (1) and chelerythrine (2) are two quaternary benzo[c]phenanthridine alkaloids (QBAs). Eighteen derivatives of 1 and 2 were synthesized by modification of C=N(+) bond and evaluated for their in vitro acaricidal activity against Psoroptes cuniculi, a mange mite. A new method was developed to prepare 6-alkoxy dihydro derivatives of 1 and 2 (1a-e, 2a-e). Among all the compounds, only 6...
