We designed and synthesised peptides conjugated with proline linkers and ruthenium photocatalysts. These peptides were used as substrates to evaluate the photocatalyst-proximity dependences of candidates for tyrosine labelling reagents. The 1-methyl-4-aryl-urazole (MAUra) structure was found to be a novel tyrosyl radical trapping agent to label tyrosine residues effectively under the conditions where the ruthenium photocatalyst and tyrosine were in close proximity. Using a ruthenium photocatalyst conjugated to a carbonic anhydrase ligand, the target protein in a complex protein mixture was labelled with remarkable target selectivity by azide- or desthiobiotin-conjugated MAUra derivatives.
Spin adducts from the reaction between N-phenyl-α-tert-butylnitrone (PBN) and activated olefins. A facile pathway converting PBN into 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane (MNP)

N-Phenyl-α-tert-butylnitrone (PBN) reacts with activated olefins RCH=CHR, such as maleimides, maleic anhydride or diethyl maleate, with formation of two types of persistent spin adducts giving characteristic EPR spectra, denoted types A and B. Spin adducts with type A spectrum were formed photochemically and identified as reductive coupling products between the olefin and PBN, RCH2CH(R)-PBN.. Spin adducts with type B spectra were formed photochemically and/or thermally and were identified as reductive coupling products RCH2CH(R)-N(O.)But between the olefin and a degradation product of PBN, 2-methyl-2-nitrosopropane (MNP, t-BuNO). The conversion of PBN to t-BuNO was studied for a compound with an exceedingly reactive nitrogen-nitrogen double-bond, namely 4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione (PTAD). In this case, a 74% yield of t-BuNO was obtained in a short period of time; α,N-diphenylnitrone reacted similarly to give nitrosobenzene. The reaction between PBN and an activated olefin was assumed to occur analogously, either via the initial formation of a 1,3-dipolar cycloadduct or some parallel reaction involving attack of the electrophilic olefin at the PBN α-carbon. The 1,3-dipolar cycloadduct between PBN and N-phenylmaleimide exhibited favourable initiator properties for living polymerization of styrene. A new type of spin adduct, RCH(But)CH(R)-N(O.)But, was prepared by the photochemical reaction between an activated olefin and t-BuNO. This reaction presumably proceeds by photocleavage of t-BuNO to NO and t-Bu., the latter reacting with the activated olefin to give a transient radical, RCH(But)CH.(R), which is trapped by t-BuNO.
