Pyridazine N-Oxides as Photoactivatable Surrogates for Reactive Oxygen Species

A method for the photoinduced evolution of atomic oxygen from pyridazine N-oxides was developed. This underexplored oxygen allotrope mediates arene C-H oxidation within complex, polyfunctional molecules. A water-soluble pyridazine N-oxide was also developed and shown to promote photoinduced DNA cleavage in aqueous solution. Taken together, these studies highlight the utility of pyridazine N-oxides as photoactivatable O(3P) precursors for applications in organic synthesis and chemical biology.

Tuning the Reactivity of Peroxo Anhydrides for Aromatic C-H Bond Oxidation

Phenol moieties are key structural motifs in many areas of chemical research from polymers to pharmaceuticals. Herein, we report on the design and use of a structurally demanding cyclic peroxide (spiro[bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane-2,4′-[1,2]dioxolane]-3′,5′-dione, P4) for the direct hydroxylation of aromatic substrates. The new peroxide benefits from high thermal stability and can be synthesized from readily available starting materials. The aromatic C-H oxidation using P4 exhibits generally good yields (up to 96%) and appreciable regioselectivities.

Methylation of catechol estrogen with diazomethane

Dynamic aspects of methylation of catechol estrogen with diazomethane were investigated by means of thin-layer chromatography. The methylation rate of the hydroxyl group at the C-3 position was almost the same as that of the C-2 hydroxyl group in the reaction of 2-hydroxyestrogen, and 2-3 times that of the C-4 hydroxyl group in the reaction of 4-hydroxyestrogen. In these experiments, the maximum yields of 2-methoxyestrone, 2-hydroxyestrone 3-methyl ether, 4-methoxyesterone and 4-hydroxyesterone 3-methyl ether were 32, 39, 13, and 70%, respectively. In addition, demethylation of catechol estrogen dimethyl ethers with boron tribromide and synthesis of 4-hydroxyestrone monomethyl ethers are described.
