Synthesis and Singlet Oxygen Reactivity of 1,2‐Diaryloxyethenes and Selected Sulfur and Nitrogen Analogs

Abstract: 1,2-Diaryloxyethene has recently been proposed as a linker in singlet oxygen-mediated drug release. Even though 1,2-diaryloxyethenes look very simple, their synthesis was not an easy task. Previous methods are limited to symmetric molecules, lengthy step and low yield. We report on a facile synthetic method not only for 1,2-diaryloxyethenes but also their sulfur and nitrogen analogs in yields ranging from 40 to 90% with more than 90% purity at the vinylation reaction.

“…We have not computed the transition structures connecting 4 with 8 and 9 that must be computed in both the ground and excited states. By analogy, excited‐state carbonyl products are formed in the decomposition of conventional 1,2‐dioxetanes .…”

“…For example, various cis/trans-substituted alkenes were reported to react with singlet oxygen, followed by decomposition to give clean corresponding carbonyl compounds [49,57,64,65]. When the substituted double bonds were used as a photocleavable linker, a lighttriggered release of greater than 90% of the conjugated reagents was reported, i.e., in [54,57,64,65]. Such a cleavage mechanism has been thoroughly investigated and utilized by a number of investigators to, for example, prepare carbonyl-containing compounds in organic synthesis [54], create prodrugs from drugs bearing a carbonyl group [57], release drugs from liposomes [58][59][60], release and precipitate photosensitizers at targeted sites [61], or deliver photosensitizers from a glass tip [62].…”

“…The reaction of singlet oxygen and an alkene can be exclusively directed through [2+2] cycloaddition, leading to clean products from decomposition of the dioxetane intermediate [50,51,55,63]. For example, various cis/trans-substituted alkenes were reported to react with singlet oxygen, followed by decomposition to give clean corresponding carbonyl compounds [49,57,64,65].

“…It is a sensitizer‐capped device with a photolabile di‐ O‐ vinyl ether bridge that releases the pheophorebide stored on the cap via attack of singlet oxygen from sensitization of the oxygen gas delivered through the hollow fiber using 669 nm laser light. O‐ Vinyl ethers are useful for photocleaving reactions at the double bond, a number of them react with 1 O 2 by mechanisms involving dioxetane intermediates . Probe tip 1 has since been modified to probe tip 2 to improve the release action of the pheophorbide sensitizer .…”
