2-Thieno/Selenopyrano[2,3-b]quinolines: Microwave-Induced One-Pot Synthesis, DNA Binding, and Photocleavage Studies
We have characterized a new class of 2-thieno/2-selenopyrano[2,3-b]quinolin-2-ol (2c/3c) intercalators exhibiting a novel type of DNA binding and photocleavage activity.

Summary: | We have characterized a new class of 2-thieno/2-selenopyrano[2,3-b]quinolin-2-ol (2c/3c) intercalators exhibiting a novel type of DNA binding and photocleavage activity. The dynamic behavior of these compounds with DNA was investigated by absorption spectra (obtained K
b
constant for 2c is 3.6 × 10

and for 3c is 2.8 × 10

), viscosity, and thermal denaturation studies. Intrinsic binding constants (K
b
) have been estimated under a similar set of experimental conditions. An absorption spectral study shows the strong interaction between synthesized 2c, 3c, and base pairs CT-DNA. In addition, the effects of these compounds on DNA cleavage were investigated by photoirradiation at 360 nm and show that the hybrids effectively cleaved double-stranded DNA with UV light of a long wavelength and without any additive. |
