A phosphoramidite chemical synthesis of oligodeoxynucleotides containing a diastereoisomer of (E)-α-(N2-deoxyguanosinyl)-N- desmethyltamoxifen, a major tamoxifen (TAM)-derived DNA adduct in animal and women treated with TAM, was described. The

Treatment with tamoxifen increased the risk of endometrial cancers in breast cancer patients and women participating in the chemoprevention study. In our laboratory, tamoxifen-DNA adducts, including α-(N2-deoxyguanosinyl)tamoxifen (dG-N2-TAM), were detected in the endometrium of women taking tamoxifen [Shibutani, S., et al. (1999) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 12, 646-653]. On the basis of recent animal studies, deoxyguanosinyl-N-desmethyltamoxifen (dG-N-desmethylTAM) adducts are also suspected to be formed in the liver. In the study presented here, we synthesized α-acetoxy-N-desmethyltamoxifen as a model activated metabolite of N-desmethyltamoxifen. The overall yield of α-acetoxy-N-desmethyltamoxifen from α-hydroxy-tamoxifen was approximately 42%. α-Acetoxy-N-desmethyltamoxifen was highly reactive to 2'-deoxyguanosine, as was similarly observed for tamoxifen α-sulfate. The two reaction products were identified as a mixture of epimers of the trans form or cis form of α-(N2-deoxyguanosinyl)-N-desmethyltamoxifen (dG-N2-N-desmethylTAM) by mass and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy. In addition, the trans and cis forms of dG 3'-monophosphate-N2-N-desmethylTAM were prepared as standard markers for 32P-postlabeling/HPLC analysis. Using this technique, dG-N2-N-desmethylTAM adducts were detected in calf thymus DNA reacted with α-acetoxy-N-desmethyltamoxifen.
