Controlling the rates of reductively-activated elimination from the (indol-3-yl)methyl position of indolequinones
- Abstract:
-
A series of substituted 3-(4-nitrophenyloxy)methylindole-4,7-diones (Q) were synthesised. The effects of substitution patterns on the indole core on rates of elimination of 4-nitrophenol as a model for drug release following fragmentation of a phenolic ether linker were studied. After reduction to either the radical anion (Q·-) or hydroquinone (QH2) elimination of 4-nitrophenol occurred from the (indol-3-yl)methyl position. The half-lives of Q·- radicals at [O2] ≈ 5 μmol dm-3, typical of tumo...
