A bis(2,2′-Bipyridine) (Dipyrido[3, 2-a:2′ 3′-c]Phenazine-N4N5) Ruthenium(II)-Based Electrochemiluminescence Biosensor for Evaluation of DNA Damage

The electrochemiluminescence of bis(2, 2′-bipyridine) (dipyrido[3, 2-a:2′ 3′-c]phenazine-N₄N₅) ruthenium(II) ([Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺) was used to monitor deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) charge transfer with tri-n-propylamine as a coreactant. This system was used to measure damage to DNA induced by perfluorooctanoic acid. Fifteen-base pairs of double-stranded DNA with a thiol group at the 5′ end position were covalently bonded to a gold electrode. An electrochemiluminescence sensor was then constructed by incubating the modified gold electrode in [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺ solution for 30 min. For comparison, single-stranded DNA, well-matched double-stranded DNA, and single base-mismatched double-stranded DNA were assembled on the gold surface. The results showed that the electrochemiluminescence behavior of the DNA sensors were unique. The electrochemiluminescence decreased when the [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺-DNA ECL sensor was incubated in a perfluorooctanoic acid solution. The damage to DNA caused by perfluorooctanoic acid was monitored using a combination of DNA charge transfer theory and the interaction between DNA and [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺. The detection limit for perfluorooctanoic acid was 1 × 10^?12 mol/L. [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺ was shown to be a sensitive electrochemiluminescence sensor for the determination of DNA damage.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and DNA‐Binding Properties of the Chiral Ruthenium(II) Complexes Δ‐ and Λ‐[Ru(bpy)2(dmppd)]2+ (dmppd = 10,12‐Dimethylpteridino[6,7‐f] [1,10]phenanthroline‐11,13(10H,12H)‐dione; bpy = 2,2′‐Bipyridine)

Two novel chiral ruthenium(II) complexes, Δ‐[Ru(bpy)₂(dmppd)]²⁺ and Λ‐[Ru(bpy)₂(dmppd)]²⁺ (dmppd = 10,12‐dimethylpteridino[6,7‐f] [1,10]phenanthroline‐11,13(10H,12H)‐dione, bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine), were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H‐NMR and ES‐MS. The DNA‐binding behaviors of both complexes were studied by UV/VIS absorption titration, competitive binding experiments, viscosity measurements, thermal DNA denaturation, and circular‐dichroism spectra. The results indicate that both chiral complexes bind to calf‐thymus DNA in an intercalative mode, and the Δ enantiomer shows larger DNA affinity than the Λ enantiomer does. Theoretical‐calculation studies for the DNA‐binding behaviors of these complexes were carried out by the density‐functional‐theory method. The mechanism involved in the regulating and controlling of the DNA‐binding abilities of the complexes was further explored by the comparative studies of [Ru(bpy)₂(dmppd)]²⁺ and of its parent complex [Ru(bpy)₂(ppd)]²⁺ (ppd = pteridino[6,7‐f] [1,10]phenanthroline‐11,13 (10H,12H)‐dione).     

Photophysical Properties of Ruthenium(II) Polypyridyl DNA Intercalators: Effects of the Molecular Surroundings Investigated by Theory

The environmental effects on the structural and photophysical properties of [Ru(L)₂(dppz)]²⁺ complexes (L=bpy=2,2′‐bipyridine, phen=1,10‐phenanthroline, tap=1,4,5,8‐tetraazaphenanthrene; dppz=dipyrido[3,3‐a:2′,3′‐c]phenazine), used as DNA intercalators, have been studied by means of DFT, time‐dependent DFT, and quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics calculations. The electronic characteristics of the low‐lying triplet excited states in water, acetonitrile, and DNA have been investigated to decipher the influence of the environment on the luminescent behavior of this class of molecules. The lowest triplet intra‐ligand (IL) excited state calculated at λ≈800 nm for the three complexes and localized on the dppz ligand is not very sensitive to the environment and is available for electron transfer from a guanine nucleobase. Whereas the lowest triplet metal‐to‐ligand charge‐transfer (³MLCT) states remain localized on the ancillary ligand (tap) in [Ru(tap)₂(dppz)]²⁺, regardless of the environment, their character is drastically modified in the other complexes [Ru(phen)₂(dppz)]²⁺ and [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺ upon going from acetonitrile (MLCT_dppz/phen or MLCT_dppz/bpy) to water (MLCT_dppz) and DNA (MLCT_phen and MLCT_bpy). The change in the character of the low‐lying ³MLCT states accompanying nuclear relaxation in the excited state controls the emissive properties of the complexes in water, acetonitrile, and DNA. The light‐switching effect has been rationalized on the basis of environment‐induced control of the electronic density distributed in the lowest triplet excited states.     

DNA Interactions of the Functionalized (Mixed Polypyridine)ruthenium(II) Complex Bis(2,2′‐bipyridine‐κN1,κN1′)(methyl dipyrido[3,2‐a : 2′,3′‐c]phenazine‐11‐carboxylate‐κN4,κN5)ruthenium(2+) ([Ru(bpy)2(dppz‐11‐CO2Me)]2+)

A novel polypyridine ligand, dipyrido[3,2‐a:2′,3′‐c]phenazine‐11‐carboxylic acid methyl ester (=dppz‐11‐CO₂Me), and its ruthenium(II) complex, [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz‐11‐CO₂Me)]²⁺ ( 1 ), were synthesized and characterized. The binding properties of this complex to calf‐thymus DNA (CT‐DNA) were investigated by different spectrophotometric methods and viscosity measurements. The results suggest that the complex binds to DNA in an intercalative mode and serves as a molecular ‘light switch’ for DNA. When irradiated at 365 nm, the complex 1 promoted the photocleavage of plasmid pBR‐322 DNA.     

一种含吲哚咪唑基Ru(II)配合物的酸碱性质和与DNA相互作用的研究

DNA-Targeting RuII-Polypyridyl Complex with a Long-Lived Intraligand Excited State as a Potential Photodynamic Therapy Agent

Subtle ligand modifications on Ru^II-polypyridyl complexes may result in different excited-state characteristics, which provides the opportunity to tune their photo-physicochemical properties and subsequently change their biological functions. Here, a DNA-targeting Ru^II-polypyridyl complex (named Ru1 ) with highly photosensitizing ³IL (intraligand) excited state was designed based on a classical DNA-intercalator [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)] ⋅ 2 PF₆ by incorporation of the dppz (dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine) ligand tethered with a pyrenyl group, which has four orders of magnitude higher potency than the model complex [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)] ⋅ 2 PF₆ upon light irradiation. This study provides a facile strategy for the design of organelle-targeting Ru^II-polypyridyl complexes with dramatically improved photobiological activity.     

Investigation of DNA Pesticide Interactions by Sensitive Electrochemiluminescence Method

A solid-state [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺ (bpy = 2,2′-bipyridine, dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a: 2′,3′-c]phenazine) electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor for studying the binding interactions between pesticides of heterocyclic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (heteroPAH) and natural double-stranded DNA (ds-DNA) was constructed. Layer-by-layer films of negatively charged natural ds-DNA and polycationic poly (diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) were assembled on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The complex of [Ru(bpy)₂(dppz)]²⁺ was used as a probe. Tripropylamine (TPA) was used as an electron donor to chemically amplify the ECL intensity of the probe. If the xenobiotic molecules compete with the probe for the same site on the DNA film, it would displace the probe from the DNA to decrease the ECL signal. The interactions of DNA with three pesticide molecules, quinalphos, quinclorac and carbendazim, were studied. From the displacement curve, the values of binding constant K _b of three pesticides to DNA is determined, which is in the range of 0.5 × 10⁴ to 2.3 × 10⁴ M^?1.     

DNA Sequence and Ancillary Ligand Modulate the Biexponential Emission Decay of Intercalated [Ru(L)2dppz]2+ Enantiomers

The bi‐exponential emission decay of [Ru(L)₂dppz]²⁺ (L=N,N′‐diimine ligand) bound to DNA has been studied as a function of polynucleotide sequence, enantiomer, and nature of L (phenanthroline vs. bipyridine). The lifetimes (τ_i) and pre‐exponential factors (α_i) depend on all three parameters. With [poly(dA‐dT)]₂, the variation of α_i with [Nu]/[Ru] has little dependence on L for Λ‐[Ru(L)₂dppz]²⁺ but a substantial dependence for Δ‐[Ru(L)₂dppz]²⁺. With [poly(dG‐dC)]₂, by contrast, the Λ‐enantiomer α_i values depend strongly on the nature of L, whereas those of the Δ‐enantiomer are relatively unaffected. DNA‐bound linked dimers show similar photophysical behaviour. The lifetimes are identified with two geometries of minor‐groove intercalated [Ru(L)₂dppz]²⁺, resulting in differential water access to the phenazine nitrogen atoms. Interplay of cooperative and anti‐cooperative binding resulting from complex–complex and complex–DNA interactions is responsible for the observed variations of α_i with binding ratio. [Ru(phen)₂dppz]²⁺ emission is quenched by guanosine in DMF, which may further rationalise the shorter lifetimes observed with guanine‐rich DNA.
