Preparation

Biopterin is synthesized by reacting 2,4,5-triamino-6-hydroxypyrimidine with 5-deoxy-L-arabinosone in aqueous solution at pH of about 7.5 to 10, acidifying and then recrystallizing by dissolving in basic solution and precipitating with acid. 5-deoxy-L-arabinosone is prepared by oxidizing S-deoxy-L-arabinose, which is prepared from L-rhamnose, using cupric acetate.Process for the synthesis of biopterin

Pteridines. Part CVI. Isolation and characterization of limipterin (1-O-(L-erythro-biopterin-2'-yl)-β-N-acetylglucosamine) and its 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro derivative from green sulfur bacterium Chlorobium limicola f. thiosulfatophilum NCIB 8327

A new pteridine compound was isolated from green sulfur photosynthetic bacteria, Chlorobium limicola f. thiosulfatophilum NCIB 8327. The structure of this pterin derivative was established to be 1-O-(L-erythro-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropterin-2'-yl)-β-N-acetylglucosamine (1) from 1H-NMR and CD spectra as well as from various mass-spectrometric techniques and chemical-cleavage techniques. Upon acid hydrolysis of 1, equimolar amounts of biopterin (2) and N-acetylglucosamine were produced. The structure of the hydrolysis product 2 was confirmed by comparing its NMR, UV, CD, and MS and its chromatographical behavior with those of an authentic specimen. N-Acetylglucosamine was identified by an enzymatic hydrolysis experiment as well as by NMR and thin layer chromatography. Electrospray (ES), fast-atom-bombardment (FAB), and thermospray (TS) mass spectrometry of 1 yielded an MH+ at m/z 441. Periodate-oxidation experiments of the intact molecule 1 and of its hydrolysis product 2 are consistent with the proposed structure. Differential I2 oxidation experiments with the native compound showed that the in vivo oxidation state of this pterin is its tetrahydro form. We propose the trivial name 'limipterin' for this new compound.

Photochemistry of dihydrobiopterin in aqueous solution

Dihydrobiopterin (H2Bip) and its oxidized analogue, biopterin (Bip), accumulate in the skin of patients suffering from vitiligo, a chronic depigmentation disorder in which the protection against UV radiation fails. The photochemistry of H2Bip was studied in neutral aqueous solutions upon UV-A irradiation (320-400 nm) at room temperature. The photochemical reactions were followed by UV/vis spectrophotometry, HPLC and enzymatic methods for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) determination. Photoproducts were analyzed by means of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Under anaerobic conditions, excitation of H2Bip leads to the formation of at least two isomeric dimers with molecular masses equal to exactly twice the molecular mass of the reactant. This reaction takes place from the singlet excited state of the reactant. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the photodimerization of a dihydropterin is reported. In the presence of air, the dimers are again the main photoproducts at the beginning of the reaction, but a small proportion of the reactant is converted into Bip. As the reaction proceeds and enough Bip accumulates in the solution, a photosensitized process starts, where Bip photoinduces the oxidation of H2Bip to Bip, and H 2O2 is formed. As a consequence, the rates of H 2Bip consumption and Bip formation increase as a function of irradiation time, resulting in an autocatalytic photochemical process. In this process, Bip in its triplet excited state reacts with the ground state of H 2Bip. The mechanisms involved are analyzed and the biological implications of the results are discussed.

METHOD OF SYNTHESIZING TETRAHYDROBIOPTERIN

The present disclosure provides a method that efficiently produces (6R)-tetrahydrobiopterin in high yield and purity. The method includes the step of hydrolyzing diacetylbiopterin to biopterin under basic conditions in a biphasic mixture comprising an organic phase and an aqueous phase. After substantially complete hydrolysis of diacetylbiopterin, the aqueous phase containing biopterin can be separated from the organic phase containing most of the organic impurities, which avoids the time-consuming step of isolating biopterin as a solid. The aqueous solution containing biopterin is stereoselectively hydrogenated to (6R)-tetrahydrobiopterin under basic conditions and high hydrogen pressure in the presence of a metal catalyst (e.g., a platinum catalyst). To improve the purification of an acid addition salt of (6R)-tetrahydrobiopterin (e.g., (6R)-tetrahydrobiopterin dihydrochloride), any residual salts (e.g., sodium salts) in the aqueous solution after the hydrogenation reaction can be removed by contacting the aqueous solution with an ion (e.g., cation) exchange resin or column. Alternatively, removal of residual salts from the aqueous solution can be omitted if an organic amine (e.g., diethylamine or triethylamine) rather than an inorganic base is used in the hydrolysis and/or hydrogenation reactions.
