Abstract:
:Incubation of 3-(2-phenylethyl)-4-methylsydnone (PMS) with liver microsomes from phenobarbital-pretreated rats or with reconstituted cytochrome P-450b results in loss of the enzyme chromophore. Chromophore loss is NADPH-dependent even though the sydnone decomposes by an oxygen- but not enzyme-dependent process to give pyruvic acid and, presumably, the (2-phenylethyl)diazonium cation. N-(2-Phenylethyl)protoporphyrin IX and N-(2-phenylethenyl)protoporphyrin IX have been isolated from the livers of rats treated with PMS. Both deuteriums are retained in the N-(2-phenylethyl) adduct derived from 3-(2-phenyl[1,1-2H]ethyl)-4-methylsydnone, but one deuterium is lost in the N-(2-phenylethenyl) adduct. The N-(2-phenylethyl) to N-(2-phenylethenyl) adduct ratio is increased by deuterium substitution. No spectroscopically detectable intermediates precede chromophore loss in incubations of reconstituted cytochrome P-450b with PMS. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR)-spin trapping studies show that carbon radicals are formed in incubations of the sydnones with liver microsomes but by a process that is independent of chromophore destruction. It is proposed that the 2-phenylethyl radical formed by electron transfer to the sydnone-derived (2-phenylethyl)diazonium cation adds to the prosthetic heme group to give the N-(2-phenylethyl) adduct. This alkylation reaction is similar to that observed with (2-phenylethyl)hydrazine. Autoxidation of the Fe-CH(CH2Ph)-N bridged species expected from insertion of 2-phenyldiazoethane into one of the heme Fe-N bonds is proposed to explain the unprecedented introduction of a double bond into the N-(2-phenylethenyl) adduct.
