Intermediates in the oxidation of a dihydropyridine derivative of AZT related to AIDS dementia, studied by nanosecond laser photolysis.
Radicals of the AZT derivative 5'-(1,4-dihydro-1-methyl-3-pyridinylcarbonyl)-3'-azido-2',3'-dideo xythymidine) were obtained on exposure of this compound in alkaline aqueous solution to pulsed laser emission of lambda = 355 nm and pulsewidth 2 ns FWHM. The radical formation was shown to be due to photoelectron ejection from the pyridine group following two-step excitation of the compound. The radicals were found to deprotonate rapidly. Electrochemical analysis showed that the photoionization does not affect the azido group. Topics: AIDS Dementia Complex; Dihydropyridines; Humans; Lasers; Photolysis; Time Factors; Zidovudine | 1994 |
