A continuous-flow process for the synthesis of triaminophloroglucinol has been developed. The synthetic procedure is based on a sequential nitration/reduction protocol which uses phloroglucinol as an inexpensive substrate. During the initial exothermic nitration step employing a combination of ammonium nitrate and sulfuric acid, the temperature was controlled through the enhanced heat transfer derived from the high surface-to-volume ratio of the utilized capillary tubing. Clogging of the tubing due to precipitation of trinitrophloroglucinol (TNPG) was avoided by immersing the tubular reactor in an ultrasound bath during the process. The nitration mixture was diluted with water and immediately subjected to catalytic hydrogenation of the nitro groups using a commercially available continuous-flow reactor and PtO2 as heterogeneous catalyst, thus avoiding the isolation of the highly unstable and explosive TNPG intermediate.

2′-Deoxyguanosine (dG) suffers from oxidation by reactive oxygen species (ROS) to form 8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG), which is regarded as a marker of oxidative stress in the cells. In our continuous study for the recognition molecule of 8-oxo-dG, 8-oxoGclamp and its derivatives have been identified as the selective fluorescent probe. However, it is an obstacle for further application that dG also forms a complex with 8-oxoGclamp, resulting in fluorescence quenching in less polar solvents. Quenching of the fluorescence of 8-oxoGclamp is thought to involve photo-induced electron transfer in the complex. It was hypothesized that the energy level of the excited state of 8-oxoGclamp and the HOMO energy of dG are the preliminary determinant of the quenching efficiency. Thus, fluorescence properties of the substituted derivatives at the 7-position of the 1,3-diazaphenoxazine part of 8-oxoGclamp were investigated. Among the new derivatives, fluorescence of the 7-phenyl substituted 8-oxoGclamp was not quenched by dG even in the stable complex, exhibiting the highest selectivity for 8-oxo-dG.

Only symmetric isomer of trihydroxybenzene (phloroglucinol) on treatment with cerium(IV)ammonium nitrate produces 13-acetoxy-1,3,9,11-tetrahydroxy-2,10-dinitrobenzobisbenzodioxin (I) along with 1,3-dihydroxy-5-methoxy-2-nitrobenzene, 1,3,5-trihydroxy-2-nitrobenzene and 1,5-dihydroxy-3-methoxy-2-nitrobenzene, while other isomers undergo very rapid reaction with the formation of polymers which are difficult to separate.
