Synthesis of polymer-bound 6-thiolatomercury and 6-mercuric sulfonate DOPA precursors and their halodemercuration reactivity.

Fluorodemercuration has the greatest utility for the preparation of 6-[18F]DOPA, but requires separation from unreacted mercury precursor and other mercury-containing compounds. One approach is the development of a polymer-bound mercury precursor. In this study, polymer-bound 6-thiolatomercury and 6-mercuric sulfonate DOPA derivatives, and its monomeric analogs were synthesized. Fluorodemercuration of monomeric analog of mercuric sulfonate gave half the yield (14-15%) while iododemercuration gave the same yield (38%) compared with a 6-mercuric trifluoroacetate protected DOPA. The mercuric sulfonate undergoes halodemercuration, so polymer-bound halodemercuration precursors may be useful as precursors of 6-[18F]DOPA.

Effects of structural modification on the DNA binding properties and photo-induced cleavage reactivity of propargylic sulfones conjugated with an anthraquinone structure.

Propargylic sulfones are known as pH-dependent DNA cleaving agents. We have designed a novel propargylic sulfone conjugated with an anthraquinone structure and evaluated its DNA binding and cleavage characteristics. The propargylic sulfone 3 showed high intercalating ability attributable to anthraquinone chromophore, leading to the efficient alkylation of DNA. The anthraquinone chromophore in 3 also acted as a photosensitizer, and photoirradiation of 3 with DNA induced one-electron oxidation, resulting in the further DNA cleavage. Evaluation of the effect of 3 against EMT6/KU cells revealed that 3 exhibited potent cytotoxicity, even without photoirradiation.

Effect of ionic additives on the elution of sodium aryl sulfonates in supercritical fluid chromatography.

Addition of a small amount of polar solvent (i.e., modifier) to CO2 in packed column supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) has shown major improvements in both polar analyte solubility and interaction of the polar analyte with the stationary phase. Recently, the addition of an ionic component (i.e., additive) to the primary modifier by one of us has been shown to extend even further the application of SFC to polar analytes. In this work, the effect of various ionic additives on the elution of ionic compounds, such as sodium 4-dodecylbenzene sulfonate and sodium 4-octylbenene sulfonate, has been studied. The additives were lithium acetate, ammonium acetate, tetramethylammonium acetate, tetrabutylammonium acetate, and ammonium chloride dissolved in methanol. Three stationary phases with different degrees of deactivation were considered: conventional cyanopropyl, deltabond cyanopropyl, and bare silica. The effect of additive concentration and additive functionality on analyte retention was investigated. Sodium 4-dodecylbenzene sulfonate was successfully eluted using all the additives with good peak shape under isocratic/isobaric/isothermal conditions. Different additives, however, yielded different retention times and in some cases different peak shapes.

Study of the elution mechanism of sodium aryl sulfonates on bare silica and a cyano bonded phase with methanol-modified carbon dioxide containing an ionic additive.

The elution mechanism of sodium sulfonates on both Deltabond cyanopropyl and bare silica stationary phases with an isocratic mobile phase composed of methanol-modified CO2 wherein an ammonium salt additive was dissolved in the methanol has been studied. The presence of the additive was crucial concerning elution of the sulfonate salts. Solid state 29silicon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy provided some insight concerning the interaction of the mobile phase additive with the silica-based stationary phase. Computational calculations concerning the charge distribution on various ammonium salts were performed in an effort to explain the elution behavior. Ammonium ions are believed to deactivate available silanol sites on both phases. In addition, ammonium ion is speculated to interact with the cyano groups on the bonded phase. For concentrations of additive greater than 2 mM, stationary phase coverage of ammonium ion is anticipated to exceed one monolayer for both bare and bonded silica. The acetate counter-ion is thought to facilitate elution of the anionic sulfonates from the positively charged stationary phase in a pseudo ion exchange mechanism.

Spectral characterization of novel ternary zinc(II) complexes containing 1,10-phenanthroline and Schiff bases derived from amino acids and salicylaldehyde-5-sulfonates.

A series of new ternary zinc(II) complexes [Zn(L(1-10))(phen)], where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline and H(2)L(1-10)=tridentate Schiff base ligands derived from the condensation of amino acids (glycine, l-phenylalanine, l-valine, l-alanine, and l-leucine) and salicylaldehyde-5-sulfonates (sodium salicylaldehyde-5-sulfonate and sodium 3-methoxy-salicylaldehyde-5-sulfonate), have been synthesized. The complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis, (1)H NMR, and (13)C NMR spectra. The IR spectra of the complexes showed large differences between nu(as)(COO) and nu(s)(COO), Deltanu (nu(as)(COO)-nu(s)(COO)) of 191-225 cm(-1), indicating a monodentate coordination of the carboxylate group. Spectral data showed that in these ternary complexes the zinc atom is coordinated with the Schiff base ligand acts as a tridentate ONO moiety, coordinating to the metal through its phenolic oxygen, imine nitrogen, and carboxyl oxygen, and also with the neutral planar chelating ligand, 1,10-phenanthroline, coordinating through nitrogens.

Superoxide anion measurement by sulfonated phenyl isothiocyanate cytochrome c.

Sulfonated phenyl isothiocyanate cytochrome c is suggested as a new scavenger for superoxide anion. The efficiency of the modified cytochrome c in measurements is compared with that of phenyl isothiocyanate cytochrome c and acetylated cytochrome c. Sulfonated phenyl isothiocyanate cytochrome c is water and salt soluble. Autooxidability of the pigment is not observed. The primary advantage of sulfonate phenyl isothiocyanate cytochrome c is that it appears to be specifically reduced by O2 radicals without interferences by other reactions in complex biological systems.

Stability of sulfonated derivatives of benzene and naphthalene on disposable solid-phase extraction pre-columns and in an aqueous matrix.

The stability of 14 sulfonated benzene and naphthalene compounds was investigated using polymeric solid-phase extraction cartridges, based on the styrene-divinylbenzene polymer Isolute ENV+. Several different storage conditions were tested to carry out the stability study in polymeric cartridges, which included storage at room temperature, at 4 degrees C and at -20 degrees C, during a period of up to 3 months. An additional stability study was carried out, not with the polymeric solid matrix, but in an aqueous matrix. This study was performed storing the samples at 4 degrees C, during 2 months under three different conditions: acidifying the water sample to pH 2.5-3 with sulfuric acid, adding 1% of formaldehyde (additive used in waste water analyses), and storing the water sample at 4 degrees C without any additives. The extraction of the SPE process is analyzed by ion-pair chromatography-electrospray mass spectrometry, in the negative ion mode. This study showed that the stability of polar aromatic sulfonic acids on disposable polymeric cartridges and in the water matrix is related to temperature and pH, respectively. Target aromatic sulfonated compounds stored in polymeric solid-phase extraction cartridges, are more stable at lower temperatures. The target analytes showed also good stability when stored in water at acidic pH. From the different analytes studied, substituted naphthalenesulfonates suffered more degradation than mononaphthalenesulfonates or benzenesulfonates under the experimental conditions of this work.

Determination of sulfonated azo dyes in river water samples by capillary zone electrophoresis.

A method based on capillary zone electrophoresis coupled with photodiode-array detection has been developed to determine several sulfonated dyes, including a sulfonated dye (acid yellow 1), and the sulfonated azo dyes acid orange 7, acid orange 12, acid orange 52, acid red 26, acid red 27 and acid red 88. A CElect-FS75 CE column is used. The electrophoresis buffer contains a 1:5 dilution of 10 mM phosphoric acid and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide buffer (pH 11.5), and 25 mM of triethylamine, the final pH being 11.55. The detection limits for the seven dyes ranged from 0.1 to 4.53 microg/ml. Spiked river water samples (100 ml), containing different concentration levels (0.025-0.150 microg/ml) of the dyes were analyzed after acidification (pH 3) and pre-concentration in disposable SPE Oasis HLB, 1 ml cartridges.

Prevention of cyclophosphamide cystitis with 2-mercaptoethane sodium sulfonate: a histologic study.

The ability of 2-mercaptoethane sodium sulfonate to prevent histologic damage to the bladder from cyclophosphamide was studied. Male rats receiving 2-mercaptoethane sodium sulfonate in conjunction with cyclophosphamide had a statistically significant decrease in ulceration, inflammation and edema of the bladder compared to those treated with cyclophosphamide alone. Most bladders of animals given prophylactic 2-mercaptoethane sodium sulfonate with a dose of cyclophosphamide were histologically indistinguishable from controls receiving neither drug. The relevance of these findings to the short and long-term effects of cyclophosphamide on the urothelium is discussed.

The use of sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate to prevent cyclophosphamide cystitis.

In 2 patients receiving bone marrow transplantation sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate has proved efficacious in preventing the serious problem of cyclophosphamide cystitis by regional detoxification of acrolein. We detail the first use of sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate in the United States. We are cautiously enthusiastic and optimistic that the simultaneous administration of sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate and cyclophosphamide will decrease if not eliminate cyclophosphamide-induced carcinoma.

Immobilization of poly(ethylene glycol) or its sulfonate onto polymer surfaces by ozone oxidation.

A novel surface modification method has been developed to improve biocompatibility of polymeric biomaterials. This approach involves ozonation and then followed by graft polymerization with acrylates containing PEG, sulfonated PEG or by coupling of PEG derivatives. All the reactions were confirmed by ATR FT-IR and ESCA. The degree of ozonation measured by the iodide method was dependent on the ozone permeability of the polymers used. Surface hydrophilicity was investigated by measuring the contact angles. Ozonation itself yielded a slight increase in hydrophilicity and a decrease in platelet adhesion, but PEG immobilization showed a significant effect on surface hydrophilicity and platelet adhesion to confirm well-known PEG's passivity which minimize the adhesion of blood components on polymer surfaces. Both graft polymerization and coupling were effective for PU. In contrast, only grafting gave enough yields for PMMA and silicone. Platelet adhesion results demonstrated that all PEG modified surfaces adsorbed lower platelet adhesion than untreated or ozonated ones. Polymers coupled with sulfonated PEG exhibited the lowest platelet adhesion when compared with control and PEG coupled ones by virtue of the synergistic effect of non-adhesive PEG and negatively charged SO3 groups. This PEG or sulfonated PEG immobilization technology using ozonation is relatively simple for introducing uniform surface modification and therefore very useful for practical application of blood contacting medical devices.

Assay of omeprazole and omeprazole sulfone by semi-microcolumn liquid chromatography with mixed-function precolumn.

A column-switching system based on semi-microcolumns was used for direct analysis of omeprazole and omeprazole sulfone in human plasma samples. Plasma samples were injected into a mixed-function (MF Ph-1) column (35 mmx4.6 mm I.D.) to remove proteins and other non-specific peak producing substances from the analyte-containing time zone. The analyte-containing fraction was thereafter transferred to a C-18 semi-microcolumn (250 mmx1.5 mm I.D.) after concentration at the C-18 intermediate column. The absorbance at 302 nm in a ultraviolet (UV) detector was recorded to measure the concentration. The detection limit for omeprazole and omeprazole sulfone in the present method was 10 ng/ml. Interbatch variation (coefficient of variation) of the QC samples spanned less than 10% and intra-batch variation less than 2%. The recovery ratios of omeprazole and omeprazole sulfone were over 98%. The current method can be used as a simpler procedure with similar sensitivity and reproducibility as previously reported methods.

The peak height ratio of S-sulfonated transthyretin and other oxidized isoforms as a marker for molybdenum cofactor deficiency, measured by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry.

Molybdenum cofactor deficiency is a fatal neurological disorder, which follows an autosomal-recessive trait and is characterized by combined deficiency of the enzyme, sulfite oxidase, xanthine dehydrogenase and aldehyde oxidase. Early detection of molybdenum cofactor-deficient patients is essential for their proper care and genetic counseling of families at risk. We demonstrate the use of S-sulfonated transthyretin (TTR) as a marker for molybdenum cofactor deficiency. Plasma or sera obtained from 4 patients with molybdenum cofactor deficiency and 57 controls were studied by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESIMS) following selective enrichment of TTR by immunoprecipitation using protein G/A agarose. The data obtained from molybdenum cofactor deficiency samples indicated a strong increase in the peak height of S-sulfonated TTR. A more significant difference was revealed if the peak height ratio of S-sulfonated TTR and the sum of the other oxidized TTR were determined. By accurate determination of the ratio, the samples of molybdenum cofactor deficiency patients could clearly be distinguished from controls without molybdenum cofactor deficiency.

Purification and characterization of dibenzothiophene (DBT) sulfone monooxygenase, an enzyme involved in DBT desulfurization, from Rhodococcus erythropolis D-1.

Dibenzothiophene (DBT), a model of organic sulfur compound in petroleum, is microbially desulfurized to 2-hydroxybiphenyl by Rhodococcus erythropolis D-1. Three desulfurization (Dsz) enzymes--DszC, A, and B--and flavin reductase are involved in sulfur-specific DBT desulfurization. In this study, DszA was purified, characterized, and crystallized from R. erythropolis D-1. DszA, DBT sulfone monooxygenase, is the second enzyme in microbial DBT desulfurization metabolism and catalyzes the conversion of DBT sulfone to 2'-hydroxybiphenyl 2-sulfinic acid in the presence of flavin reductase with cleavage of the carbon-sulfur bond in the DBT skeleton. Using anion-exchange column chromatography, the four enzyme fractions responsible for DBT desulfurization were separated, and DszA was then purified to homogeneity. Polygonal crystals of DszA were observed within a week. DszA was found to have a molecular mass of 97 kDa and to consist of two subunits with identical masses of 50 kDa. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified DszA completely coincided with the deduced amino acid sequence for dszA of R. erythropolis IGTS8 except for a methionine residue at the latter N-terminal. The optimal temperature and pH for DszA activity were 35 degrees C and about 7.5. The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by Mn2+, Ni2+, 2,2'-bipyridine, and 8-quinolinol, suggesting that a metal might be involved in its activity. DszA acted on not only DBT sulfone but also on dibenz[c,e][1,2]oxathiin 6-oxide and dibenz[c,e][1,2]oxathiin 6,6-dioxide. Dihydroxybiphenyl was formed from the latter two substrates.

Enhanced analysis of sulfonated azo dyes using liquid chromatography/thermospray mass spectrometry.

Modifications to a thermospray vaporizer probe and ion source have been made that enhance ion evaporation resulting in increased sample ion current. These modifications include restricting the thermospray vaporizer exit orifice and the addition of a needle-tip repeller electrode to the thermospray ion source. The interaction and effect of probe-tip size, repeller voltage, and flow rate on sulfonated azo dye detection are reported. An increase in signal response for sulfonated azo dyes was observed. An efficient chromatographic separation procedure for sulfonated azo dyes, which is compatible with thermospray mass spectrometric detection, is also presented. Five disulfonated azo dyes were separated and detected by using selected ion monitoring. Mass spectra of disulfonated dyes show a number of molecular ions and adduct ions that provide unequivocal molecular weight information.

Evidence in Escherichia coli that N3-methyladenine lesions induced by a minor groove binding methyl sulfonate ester can be processed by both base and nucleotide excision repair.

It has been previously reported that a neutral DNA equilibrium binding agent based on an N-methylpyrrolecarboxamide dipeptide (lex) and modified with an O-methyl sulfonate ester functionality (MeOSO(2)-lex) selectively affords N3-methyladenine lesions. To study the interaction of the neutral lex dipeptide with calf thymus DNA, we have prepared stable, nonmethylating sulfone analogues of MeOSO(2)-lex that are neutral and cationic. Thermodynamic studies show that both the neutral and monocationic sulfone compounds bind to DNA with K(b)'s of 10(5) in primarily entropy-driven reactions. To determine how the cytotoxic N3-methyladenine adduct generated from MeOSO(2)-lex is repaired in E. coli, MeOSO(2)-lex was tested for toxicity in wild-type E. coli and in mutant strains defective in base excision repair (tag and/or alkA glycosylases or apn endonuclease), nucleotide excision repair (uvrA), and both base and nucleotide excision repair (tag/alkA/uvrA). The results clearly demonstrate the cellular toxicity of the N3-methyladenine lesion, and the protective role of base excision glycosylase proteins. A novel finding is that in the absence of functional base excision glycosylases, nucleotide excision repair can also protect cells from this cytotoxic minor groove lesion. Interaction between base and nucleotide excision repair systems is also seen in the protection of cells treated with cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) but not with anti-(+/-)-r-7,t-8-dihydroxy-t-9,10-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene.

Penicillanic acid sulfone: interaction with RTEM beta-lactamase from Escherichia coli at different pH values.

The interaction of the sulfone of penicillanic acid with the TEM-2 beta-lactamase from Escherichia coli has been investigated as a function of pH between pH 7.0 and 9.6. The first-formed acyl-enzyme suffers one of three fates: deacylation, tautomerization to a bound enamine that transiently inhibited the enzyme, and a process (possibly transimination) that leads to enzyme inactivation. The observed changes in ultraviolet absorbance are consistent with the initially observed product of deacylation being the enamine tautomer (4) of the imine from malonsemialdehyde and penicillamine sulfinate. The same enamine can be generated nonenzymically from the sulfone at high pH. The transiently inhibited enzyme appears to be the same enamine attached to the enzyme by an ester linkage. The rather complex kinetic behavior can be deconvuluted by exploiting the effect of pH on the partitioning of the acyl-enzyme between deacylation and the transiently inhibited form of the enzyme. The pathways followed by penicillanic acid sulfone provide a model for the behavior of a number of other reagents that inactivate the beta-lactamase.
