Crescent-shaped polyamides composed of aromatic amino acids, i.e., 1-methyl-1H-imidazole Im, 1-methyl-1H-pyrrole Py, and 3-hydroxy-1H-pyrrole Hp, bind in the minor groove of DNA as 2:1 and 1:1 ligand/DNA complexes. DNA-Sequence specificity can be attributed to shape-selective recognition and the unique corners or pairs of corners presented by each heterocycle(s) to the edges of the base pairs on the floor of the minor groove. Here we examine the relationship between heterocycle structure and DNA-sequence specificity for a family of five-membered aromatic amino acids. By means of quantitative DNase-I footprinting, the recognition behavior of polyamides containing eight different aromatic amino acids, i.e., 1-methyl-1H-pyrazole Pz, 1H-pyrrole Nh, 5-methylthiazole Nt, 4-methylthiazole Th, 3-methylthiophene Tn, thiophene Tp, 3-hydroxythiophene Ht, and furan Fr, were compared with the polyamides containing the parent-ring amino acids Py, Im, and Hp for their ability to discriminate between the four Watson - Crick base pairs in the DNA minor groove. Analysis of the data and molecular modeling showed that the geometry inherent to each heterocycle plays a significant role in the ability of polyamides to differentiate between DNA sequences. Binding appears sensitive to changes in curvature complementarity between the polyamide and DNA. The Tn/Py pair affords a modest 3-fold discrimination of T · A vs. A · T and suggests that an S-atom in the thiophene ring prefers to lie opposite T not A.

Palladium-catalyzed silane/siloxane reductions in the one-pot conversion of nitro compounds into their amines, hydroxylamines, amides, sulfonamides, and carbamates

A combination of palladium(II) acetate, aqueous potassium fluoride, and polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) facilitates the room-temperature reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to anilines. These reactions tend to be quick (30 min), high-yielding, and tolerate a range of other functional groups. Replacement of PMHS/KF with triethylsilane allows for the reduction of aliphatic nitro compounds to their corresponding hydroxylamines. Depending on the substrate, both conditions can allow for the in situ conversion of the product amines into amides, sulfonamides, and carbamates. Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart.
