Theoretical study on the photooxygenation and photorearrangement reactions of 3-hydroxyflavone

Abstract: The photooxygenation of 3-hydroxyflavone (3HF) into O-benzoyl salicylic acid and the photorearrangement of 3HF into 3-hydroxy-3-phenyl-indane-1,2-dione have been studied using theoretical calculations. These are the main photodegradation reactions of this versatile fluorescent probe which exhibits excited state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT). The Gibbs free energies for the ground/excited state species were computed at the DFT/TD-DFT level of theory. The calculations on the direct photooxygenation (T 1… Show more

“…The only detected photoproducts, 5 and CO, are formed in very high chemical yields; no detectable amounts of photoproduct 6 were found in aerated solutions. The mechanism of the final photooxygenation step has been a subject of investigations with parent flavonol 2 . ,, Chou and co-workers proposed that the reaction of triplet phototautomer 3 2Z * with ground-state oxygen takes place via the formation of an endoperoxide intermediate. , Recent DFT calculations by Kubinyi and co-workers gave evidence that the addition of 3 O 2 on 3 2Z * gives an endoperoxide and not a hydroperoxide as an intermediate . Inspired by these studies, we show an analogous endoperoxide intermediate 7 , formed upon the reaction of 3 1Z * with ground-state oxygen, in Scheme a; the previously studied mechanism of 2Z photooxygenation is provided in Scheme S1.…”

“…A similar reaction pathway has been recently proposed for the photooxygenation of 4′-diethylamino-3-hydroxyflavone [90]. Notably, 3-hydroxyflavone is also known to undergo photoinduced rearrangement in the absence of O 2 (Scheme 15 (bottom)) in apolar, polar aprotic and polar protic solvents, to give a 3-hydroxy-3-aryl-indane-1,2-dione product [91,92,93,94]. In some cases, the indane-1,2-diones releases CO to form a 3-arylphthalide (Scheme 15).…”

“…FTIR spectra demonstrate that the C = C stretching band in the keto-enamine linkage of PCOMs was more intense than that of DCOM (Supplementary Fig. 4 ), ascribing to the small energy barriers of enol-keto phototautomerization 33 , 34 . These findings demonstrate a simple and effective strategy for tailoring the crystalline structure of Tp-Byp COM.…”
