We report herein the synthesis and characterization of a fluorogenic analogue of ubiquinone designed to reversibly report on redox reactions in biological systems. The analogue, H2B-Q consists of the redox-active quinone segment found in ubiquinone, 2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone, coupled to a boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) fluorophore segment that both imparts lipophilicity in lieu of the isoprenyl tail of ubiquinone, and reports on redox changes at the quinone/ quinol segment. Redox sensing is mediated by a photoinduced electron transfer intramolecular switch. In its reduced dihydroquinone form, H2B-QH(2) is highly emissive in nonpolar media (quantum yields 55-66%), while once oxidized, the resulting quinone H2B-Q emission is suppressed. Cyclic voltammetry of H2B-Q shows two reversible, 1-electron reduction peaks at -1.05 V and -1.37 V (vs ferrocene) on par with those of ubiquinone. Chemical reduction of H2B-Q by NaBH4 resulted in >200 fold emission enhancement. H2B-QH(2) is shown to react with peroxyl radicals, a form of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as to cooperatively interact with chromanol (the active segment of alpha-tocopherol). Kinetic analysis further shows the antioxidant reactivity of the nonfluorescent intermediate semiquinone. We anticipate that the H2B-Q/H2B-QH(2) off/on reversible couple may serve as a tool to monitor chemical redox processes in real-time and in a noninvasive manner.
