RESUMO

The rates and products of the reactions of (+/-)-7beta,8alpha-dihydroxy-9beta,10beta-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (1) and (+/-)-7beta,8alpha-dihydroxy-9alpha,10alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (2) in water and dioxane-water mixtures have been determined over a pH range wider than that of earlier studies. This study provides additional insight on the mechanisms of the pH-independent reactions of 1 and 2. The rate profile for reaction of 1 shows acid-catalyzed hydrolysis at pH <5, a rate plateau at pH 5-9.5, a negative inflection at pH 10-11.5, and a rate increase at pH >11.5. The rate decrease between pH 10 and pH 11.5 is accompanied by a decrease in the yield of tetrols from 60% (pH 8) to 29% (pH 11.2) and is interpreted to be the result of a partial change in mechanism brought about by attack of hydroxide ion acting as a base to deprotonate a carbocation intermediate and regenerate 1 at pH >10, thus reducing the contribution of the pathway for tetrol formation in which water attacks the carbocation. The rate profile for the reaction of 2 exhibits only a single rate plateau at intermediate pH, along with increases in rate at low and high pH because of second-order reactions of 2 with H+ and HO-, respectively. The lack of a rate depression at pH >10 and the product studies for the reaction of 2 in dilute sodium azide solutions suggest that the tetrol-forming reactions of the pH-independent reaction of 2 are concerted or near-concerted.

RESUMO

Hydrophobic interactions play an important role in binding S-(N-aryl/alkyl-N-hydroxycarbamoyl)glutathiones to the active sites of human, yeast, and Pseudomonas putida glyoxalase I, as the log K(i) values for these mechanism-based competitive inhibitors decrease linearly with increasing values of the hydrophobicity constants (pi) of the N-aryl/alkyl substituents. Hydrophobic interactions also help to optimize polar interactions between the enzyme and the glutathione derivatives, given that the K(i) value for S-(N-hydroxycarbamoyl)glutathione (pi = 0) with the human enzyme is 35-fold larger than the interpolated value for this compound obtained from the log K(i) versus pi plot. Computational studies, in combination with published X-ray crystallographic measurements, indicate that human glyoxalase I binds the syn-conformer of S-(N-aryl-N-hydroxycarbamoyl)glutathiones in which the N-aryl substituents are in their lowest-energy conformations. These studies provide both an experimental and a conceptual framework for developing better inhibitors of this antitumor target enzyme.

RESUMO

Rates and products of the reactions of trans- and cis-beta-methyl-4-methoxystyrene oxides (1 and 2) (anethole oxides) and beta,beta-dimethyl-4-methoxystyrene oxide (3) in water solutions in the pH range 4-12 have been determined. In the pH range ca. 8-12, each of these epoxides reacts by a spontaneous reaction. The spontaneous reaction of trans-anethole oxide (1) yields ca. 40% of (4-methoxyphenyl)acetone and 60% of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1, 2-propanediols (erythro:threo ratio ca. 3:1). The spontaneous reaction of cis-anethole oxide is more complicated. The yields of diol and ketone products vary with pH in the pH range 8-11, even though there is not a corresponding change in rate. These results are interpreted by a mechanism in which 2 undergoes isomerization in part to the more reactive trans-anethole oxide (1), which subsequently reacts by acid-catalyzed and/or spontaneous reactions, depending on the pH, to yield diol and ketone products. The buildup of the intermediate trans-anethole oxide in the spontaneous reaction of cis-anethole oxide was detected by (1)H NMR analysis of the reaction mixture. Other primary products of the spontaneous reaction of 2 are (4-methoxyphenyl)acetone (73%) and threo-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,2-propanediol (ca. 3%). The rates and products of the spontaneous reaction of 2 and its beta-deuterium-labeled derivative were determined, and the lack of significant kinetic and partitioning deuterium isotope effects indicates that the isomerization of 2 to ketone and to trans-anethole oxide must occur primarily by nonintersecting reaction pathways.

RESUMO

Rates of reaction of (+/-)-7beta,8alpha-dihydroxy-9alpha, 10alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (DE-2) have been determined in 1:9 dioxane-water solutions containing 1.0 M KCl, 0.5 M KBr, and 0.1 M NaI over the pH range 4-13. These pH-rate profiles are more complicated than those for reaction of DE-2 in 0.2 M NaClO4 solutions and are interpreted in part by mechanisms in which halide ion attacks the diol epoxide as a nucleophile at intermediate pH, resulting in the formation of a trans-halohydrin. Reaction of DE-2 in these halide solutions at pH < ca. 5 occurs by rate-limiting carbocation formation, followed by capture of the intermediate carbocation by halide ion. The relative magnitudes of the rate constants for reaction of the intermediate carbocation with halide ions are estimated from product studies. The halohydrins are unstable intermediates and react quickly in subsequent reactions to yield tetrols in a ratio different than that formed from reaction of the carbocation with solvent. Nucleophilic attacks of 1.0 M Cl-, 0.5 M Br-, and 0.1 M I- on DE-2 are the principal reactions in the pH range ca. 6-9, leading to intermediate trans-halohydrins that hydrolyze to tetrols. At pH ca. 9-11, halohydrin formed from attack of halide ion on DE-2 reverts back to epoxide, leading to a negative break in the pH-rate profile. The main product-forming reaction of DE-2 at pH 11.3 is the spontaneous reaction. At pH > 12, the rate of reaction of DE-2 increases due to a second-order reaction of HO- with DE-2.

RESUMO

The rates of reactions of the cis and trans (benzylic 7-hydroxyl group relative to epoxide oxygen) bay-region 7,8-diol 9,10-epoxides of benzo[a]pyrene (DE-1 and DE-2, respectively) in solutions containing human serum albumin (HSA) and a model system of micelles of the nonionic detergent Tween-80 have been determined as a function both of HSA or Tween-80 concentrations and of pH. The effect of increasing concentrations of both HSA and Tween-80 is to retard substantially the rates of reaction of DE-1 and DE-2 over the pH range 5-7. The rate data are consistent with a mechanism in which the diol epoxides physically associate with HSA or Tween-80, and the rates of reaction of the association complexes are reduced compared to those of free diol epoxides. The limiting rate constants for reaction of the diol epoxide.HSA and diol epoxide.Tween-80 complexes are dependent on pH. The rate data are best accommodated by a mechanism in which the complexes react by two competing pathways, one whose rate is proportional to hydronium ion activity, and the second whose rate is pH-independent. These reactions of the association complexes are therefore kinetically analogous to the acid-catalyzed and spontaneous reactions of free diol epoxide. The spontaneous reaction of the (DE-2).HSA complex results in approximately 10% covalent binding of diol epoxide to the protein, whereas the acid-catalyzed reaction of the complex results in significantly less covalent binding. The balance of the products consists of tetraols formed by hydrolysis of the diol epoxide.

RESUMO

The time-dependent absorbance change that occurs when benzo[alpha]pyrene 7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide is added to solutions of calf thymus DNA has been shown, by an unequivocal chromatographic method, to correspond to DNA-catalyzed hydrolysis of the diol-epoxide. At 25 degrees C and mu = 0.10, the kinetics of the reaction of the diol-epoxide with polyadenylic acid or DNA are consistent with preequilibrium formation of a non-covalent complex between the diol-epoxide and the polynucleotide or DNA, followed by hydrolysis of the bound epoxide by a process that is first-order in hydronium ions. Cacodylic acid also catalyzes the hydrolysis of the epoxide bound to polyadenylic acid. The rate of the DNA-catalyzed hydrolysis exhibits little or no enantiomeric selectivity for the diol-epoxide. DNA catalyzed hydrolysis of the diol-epoxide is extraordinarily sensitive to the salt concentration in the reaction medium: the rate of hydrolysis of the bound epoxide at pH 7 is retarded by a factor of approximately 45 in the presence of 0.1 M sodium chloride compared to a 1 mM buffer containing no added salt. Thus, studies of the interactions of DNA with carcinogenic diol-epoxides must take into account the ionic environment of DNA within the cell.

RESUMO

The existence of an internal hydrogen bond in a compound representative of a syn diol epoxide (a possible intermediate in chemical carcinogenesis by certain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) has been demonstrated by x-ray crystallographic and nuclear magnetic resonance studies. This internal hydrogen bond was found in 3,4-epoxy-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1-naphthol and was shown to persist in dioxane-water solutions containing up to 80 mole percent water. In this structure, the 1-hydroxy and 2-methyl groups are shown to occupy axial positions. In the anti diol epoxide, which has no internal hydrogen bond, analogous groups are equatorial. Crystals of the compound were unstable in the x-ray beam while the data were being collected (even at low temperatures), presumably as a result of decomposition.
