A Mechanism for the Stereoselectivity and Binding of Benzo[a]pyrene Diol Epoxides to DNA... 

This procarcinogen undergoes metabolic conversion to benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxides, BPDEs (5,28-31), which have been the focus of structural and conformational studies by theoretical and experimental methods. These chemically reactive BPDEs are involved in covalent binding to DNA (13-22). 

A theoretical analysis is presented for the binding of the four dia-stereoisomers of benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxides (BPDEs) to N2(g), N6(a), 06(G) and NU(c). Molecular models for binding and stereoselectivity involving intercalation, intercalative covalently and externally bound forms are presented. Molecular mechanics calculations provide the energetics which suggest possible structures for the formation of each of the principal DNA-BPDE complexes. Stereographic projections are used to illustrate the molecular structures and steric fits. The results of previous calculations on intercalation and adduct formation of BPDE l(+) in kinked DNA (37) are summarized and extended to include the four diastereoisomers l( ) and II( ). The theoretical model is consistent with the observed experimental data. 

Fig. 10.13. Metabolism of benzo[ ]pyrene (10.34). Shown are stereoselective formation of three isomeric epoxides, EH-catalyzed, stereoselective hydration to the dihydrodiols 10.35, 10.36, and 10.37, and, finally, 9,10-epoxidation of 10.36 to the bay-region diol epoxide 10.38. The latter exists as...

Electrophiles can be hard or soft. Thus hard electrophiles react with nucleophilic sites in molecules such as O, N, C in nucleic acids or the S in methionine in proteins. Hard electrophiles are typically genotoxic such as the benzo(a)pyrene diol epoxide (see chap. 7). 

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), which are ubiquitous in the environment, including surface waters, undergo facile chlorination by hypochlorite when dissolved in humus-poor water to give a suite of chlorinated PAH (1660). It is therefore conceivable that this chlorination can occur under natural conditions, but this is yet to be determined. Another new possible source of natural chlorinated PAH is the reported in vitro reaction of benzo [a pyrene diol epoxide, the ultimate carcinogen of benzo aIpyrene with chloride ion to give chlorohydrin DDD, which has been isolated and identified as an intermediate en route to a benzol a pyrene-DN A adduct (1661). However, DDD is not considered to be a natural compound at this time.
