Abstract
A novel water-soluble [60] fullerene-substituted lysine derivative 3 has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and FAB-MS. The synthetic procedure involved condensation of Boc-protected lysine with terephthaldehyde followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction with C60 in the presence of sarcosine and finally deprotection of the amino group using trifluoroacetic acid. The synthesized compound 3 exhibited high DNA cleavage efficiency upon visible light irradiation in the presence of NADH.
