Article Abstract

The ortho-hydroxy-protected aryl sulfate (OHPAS) linker is composed of a diaryl sulfate backbone equipped with a latent phenol moiety at the ortho position of one of the aryl units. The Ar-OH released when the ortho phenol undergoes intramolecular cyclization and displaces the second aryl unit can be viewed as a payload. We have shown in the preceding paper that the OHPAS linkers are highly stable chemically and in various plasmas, yet release payloads when exposed to suitable triggering conditions. As an extension of the OHPAS system, we employed a para-hydroxy benzyl (PHB) spacer for coupling to nonphenolic payloads; this tactic again provided a highly stable system capable of smooth release of appended payloads. The PHB modification works beautifully for tertiary amine and N-heterocycle payloads.

Recently we have reported that the ortho-hydroxy-protected aryl sulfate (OHPAS) system can be exploited as a new self-immolative group (SIG) for phenolic payloads. We extended the system to nonphenolic payloads by simply introducing a para-hydroxy benzyl (PHB) spacer. As an additional variation of the system, we explored a benzylsulfonate version of the OHPAS system and found that it has two distinct breakdown pathways, cyclization and 1,4-elimination, the latter of which implies that para-hydroxy-protected (PHP) benzylsulfonate (BS) can also be used as an alternative SIG.

A number of benzyl derivatives have been tested for their ability to induce the expression of the araBAD operon in an Escherichia coli K-12 strain. Those derivatives shown to be stimulatory include: benzoic acid (BA), para-amino benzoic acid (PABA), para-hydroxy benzoic acid (PHBA), ortho-amino benzoic acid (OABA), 3-hydroxy-4-methoxy phenylethylamine (MTA), and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenol acetic acid (HVA). The araC gene product was necessary to facilitate the induction.
