Spectroscopic investigation of the light-induced rearrangement of a Xanthine derivative — •Karina Heilmeier1, Thomas Rittner1, Rafael E.

The Xanthine derivative 7-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3-dimethyl-8-(pyridin-2-yl)-3,7,8,9-tetrahydro-1H-purine-2,6-dione possesses a characteristic purine skeleton additionally modified with pyridine and anisole moieties bound to the five-membered ring. Our studies reveal that ultraviolet light induces the migration of the anisole group from the 7-nitrogen of the purine skeleton to the nitrogen of the pyridine moiety. The isomer emerging as rearrangement product could even be isolated, and the structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

For obtaining a comprehensive picture of the light-induced mechanism leading to the rearrangement, results from stationary measurements are compared to those from ultrafast transient absorption and fluorescence upconversion spectroscopy. In addition, we contrast the photodynamics of the in-situ generated isomer with that of the synthetically isolated one. In further systematic studies, we explore whether photoinduced back-isomerization is achievable as well, and address the role of the solvent’s polarity on the rearrangement.
