We describe a seven-step synthesis of 8-azido-3′-O-anthraniloyl-2′dADP and 2′dATP from 8-azido-2′deoxyadenosine. These compounds can be used as fluorescent and photoactivable probes for the nucleotide-binding site of kinases or cyclases. These two analogs of ADP and ATP were synthesized and used as fluorescent and photoactivable probes for the nucleotide binding site of bacterial adenylate cyclase.

Keywords: (nucleotide analogs / fluorescent and photoactivable derivatives; ATP-dependent enzymes; 8-azido-3′-O-anthraniloyl derivatives of 2′dATP and 2′dADP
