| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We had developed a visible-light-controllable peroxynitrite generator based on photoinduced electron transfer. We discovered that one of synthesized compounds in the process was worked as a visible light controllable NO donor, named as NOBL-1. NOBL-1 could release NO in response to blue light in cells, confirmed by using fluorogenic NO probe, DAR-4M, and fluorescence microscope. Finally, we successfully controlled vasodilation, one of the main functions of NO, of rat aorta ex vivo with NOBL-1 and blue light. This compound is expected to be a chemical tool for NO research and a candidate as a chemotherapeutic reagent. In the next, we will develop a visible-light-controllable peroxynitrite generator with knowledge acquired in this research.
