2.I ABSTRACT
Hybrid nitroxide spin label and a spin label by 1-3 dipolar cycloaddition of
propargyl functionalized spin label with azide in Zidovudine molecule were
synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions. Amine functionalized spin label
was incorporated in the back bone of DNA.
2.II INTRODUCTION
The study of biomolecules like DNA and proteins has been very challenging
because of the complexicity and various specific interactions involved in these
molecules. One potential technique for probing such dynamic interactions in
biomolecules is electron spin-labeling wherein a stable nitroxide is attached to a
specific residue on the biopolymer under study. Site-directed spin labeling (SDSL)
has become an increasingly important probe of structure and dynamics in
biopolymers because of its sensitivity to motion, probe–probe interactions and local
environment. The recent development of the method of site directed spin-labeling of
proteins opens the potential to examine the local dynamical modes at or near each
labeled residue (plus the overall motions) thereby ultimately leading to a “map” of
the dynamic structure throughout the protein or other macromolecules.
Over the last fifty years , nitroxide free radicals have found applications as
diverse as redox reagents, SOD mimics (superoxide dismutase), MRI contrast
agents (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) and as reporter groups for probing the
biological systems, making them strong and versatile tool accessible to chemists and
biophysicist. Despite the vast developments in the field of spin labels, the synthesis
of spin labels possessing the desired blend of properties has always been a challenge
to synthetic chemist. In this regard the newer applications of nitroxide, in particular
their utility in the oxymetry and pH determination of biological systems, has
37
Chapter 2 : Synthesis of Nitroxide Spin Labels and Incorporation of a Nitroxide Spin- label in Oligonucleotide
intensified the efforts towards the design of novel and more suitable probes
possessing properties suitable for these applications.
Because of complexity and a variety of active sites in biomolecules it is very
difficult to directly develop nitroxide spin label on them. Usually spin labeling is
achieved by covalent anchoring of functionalized spin labeling reagents. The spin
labeled oligonucleotide has been employed for studies concerning DNA dynamics,
conformational modifications and in the detection of hybrid formation. Hence
usually attempts are made to develop spin labels in which there are electrophilic
group or groups which can easily be condensed to active sites of biomolecules.
2.III. RECENT REPORTS
Recently, Polienko et al.1 put forth a synthetic approach to access the new
nitroxides of the amidine type exhibiting pH-dependent EPR spectra through
substitution of a halide in the exo-N-halogenoalkyl chain of 1-(2-bromoethyl)-6-
oxyl- 5,5,7,7-tetramethyltetrahydroimidazo[1,5-b][1,2,4] oxadiazol-2-one. In this
approach, an oxycarbonyl moiety of the oxadiazolone heterocycle plays a role of
“protecting group” for the amidine functionality. Here a nucleophilic cleavage of the
oxadiazolone heterocycle under mild nonbasic conditions, applicable to substrates
bearing substituents vulnerable to attack by strong basic nucleophiles, have been
elaborated. The approach allows for the new amidine nitroxides bearing various
functional groups (e.g., such as CN, N3, NH2, COOEt) to be synthesized. They have
also described a series of nitroxides obtained through the Staudinger /intermolecular
aza-Wittig reaction of the azido derivative.

With the help of ESR and NMR techniques Coloumbous and Hubbel2
revealed differences in backbone motions by comparing the sequence-dependent
motions of nitroxides at structurally homologous sites. Spectral simulation
techniques and a simple line width measure were used to extract dynamical
parameters from the EPR spectra, and the results revealed that a mobility gradient
similar to that observed in NMR relaxation, further indicating that side chain
motions mirror backbone motions. With this study they predicted a model for
motion of side chain on α-Helics (Scheme 2.2).Following scheme depicts the
reaction of spin labeling reagents to generate nitroxide side chain.

Chapter 2 : Synthesis of Nitroxide Spin Labels and Incorporation of a Nitroxide Spin- label in Oligonucleotide
Nitroxide spin-labels have been incorporated into DNA, by conjugation to
either the nucleoside base4 or the sugar-phosphate backbone.5 However, the
currently available methods for the incorporation of spin-labels into RNA are
restricted to either an unpaired uridine6 or the 5’-end.7 Both of these strategies are
somewhat limited because the spin-label cannot be conjugated to internal, base-
paired nucleotides. A variety of molecules have been conjugated to the 2’-position
of base-paired nucleotides in RNA.8 Particularly attractive is the use of a 2’-amino-
modified RNA, which can be prepared by automated chemical synthesis using
commercially available phosphoramidites (Scheme 2.4). The 2’-amino group can be
reacted with electrophiles, such as aliphatic isocyanates9.

Rychnovsky and colleagues10 have extended the Lai’s protocol for the
synthesis of nitroxides to the synthesis of several new chiral piperazine and
morpholine nitroxides. This strategy utilizes the Bargellini reaction as the key bond-
forming step. Several optically pure nitroxides incorporating α-aromatic and α-spiro
centers were prepared by this route. These chiral nitroxides (Figure 2.1) will be of
interest as enantioselective oxidants, as traps for prochiral radicals, and in the
preparation of new materials. One of these nitroxide compounds, compound (A),
was found to racemize under mild oxidizing conditions. They have further
investigated the mechanism for this unusual racemization reaction.

2.IV PRESENT WORK
A tempamine based nitroxide spin label was incorporated in back bone of
DNA. With the ground of earlier experience11 in cycloaddition reactions and
synthesis of hybrid molecules a steroid containing nitroxide spin label (7) and a spin
labeled zidovudine (8) were prepared by 1-3 dipolar cycloaddition reaction.
Attempts were made to incorporate these spin labels in DNA back bone.
2.V RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
It was first decided to incorporate a simple nitroxide spin label in back bone
of DNA. Tempamine (4-Amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperdine-1-oxyl) was chosen
for this purpose.
Incorporation of Spin Label in DNA Back bone
H-phosphonate approach was applied for the synthesis of dimeric block of
DNA on CPG to incorporate tempamine (4-Amino-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperdine-1-
oxyl) on the DNA backbone. The synthesis was performed in syringe at 1 μmol
scale. The lcaa CPG with the nucleoside loading of 44 μmol/g was used for the
synthesis and the success of the method was checked for four dimeric blocks. For
the oxidation of H-phosphonate, CCl4 was used. The dimeric blocks d(TPNA),
d(TPNT), d(TPNG), d(TPNC) were synthesized in syringe by modifying the protocol
used for the DNA synthesis by H-phosphonate approach (Table 2.1).

The incorporation of spin label was evidenced by 31P NMR analysis of
aqueous solution of the oligonucleotide. The results are in support of the
incorporation of 4-Amino TEMPO spin label at DNA back bone. For example, in 31P NMR of d(TPNT) two peaks at 16.12ppm and 16.20 ppm are typical of P-N
bond.
Synthesis of New Nitroxide Spin-labels
The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is a classic reaction in organic chemistry
consisting of the reaction of a dipolarophile with a 1,3-dipolar compound that
allows the production of various five tempered heterocycles. This reaction
represents one of the most productive fields of modern synthetic organic chemistry.
Nitroalkanes and aldehydes through nitrile oxides can serve as useful reagents in
effecting carbon-carbon bond formation. Most of the literature data on the 1,3-
dipolar cycloaddition leading to isoxazolines refer to reactions between nitrile
oxides and alkynes. Keeping the stability of nitroalkanes in view and availability of
several efficient methods of transforming nitroalkanes into the respective nitrile
oxide13, it appeared of interest to make use of an isoxazole moiety in the 1,3-dipolar
cycloaddition reactions. We decided to take advantage of this reaction to develop
some new nitroxide spin labels.
Considering the high biological profile of steroid and use of alkynes in the
1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions, 16-dehydro pregnenolone acetate (16-DPA) was
chosen for the synthesis of nitrile oxide precursor and 4-Hydroxy TEMPO for the
synthesis of nitroxide alkynes as their propargyl ether derivatives.
The oxidation of 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperdin-1-one (1) to its nitroxide (2) by
reported method14 was carried out. Tempol (4-Hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-
piperdine-1-oxyl) (3) was prepared by reduction of (2) with sodium borohydride.

with nitromethane in dichloromethane. This reaction was carried out at room
temperature with slow addition of DBU to generate compound (6). Compound (7)
was prepared by adding compound (6) propargyl functionalized nitroxide (4) to dry
benzene and stirring the reaction mixture over night with triethyl amine and phenyl
isocyanate.
Recently 1,3- dipolar cycloaddition have generously been used in the
synthesis of a wide variety of conjugates particularly in the field of carbohydrate
chemistry.15 This has been attributed to ease of reaction and relative stability of
linker group particularly triazole as a linker employing “click chemistry”.15 The
nitroxide 8 was prepared by 1,3-cycloaddition reaction of azide function in
Zidovudine and compound 4 as indicated in Scheme 2.7.

nitroxide spin labels.
