The 2'-deoxyadenosine-5'-phosphate (5'-dAMP) anion and its related radicals have been studied by reliably calibrated theoretical approaches. This study reveals important physical characteristics of 5'-dAMP radical related processes. One-electron oxidation of the 5'-dAMP anion is found on both the phosphoryl group and the adenine base with electron detachment energies close to that of phosphate. Partial removal of electron density from the adenine fragment leads to an extended pi system which includes the amine group of the adenine. Although the radical-centered carbon increases the extent of bonding with its adjacent atoms, it usually weakens the chemical bonds between the atoms at the alpha- and beta-positions. This tendency should be important in predicting the reactivity of the sugar-based radicals. The overall stability sequence of the H-abstracted 5'-dAMP anionic radicals is consistent with the analogous results for the H-abstracted neutral radicals of the adenosine nucleoside: aliphatic radicals > aromatic radicals. The negatively charged phosphoryl group attached to atom C'(5) of the ribose does not change this energetic sequence. All the H-abstraction produced 5'-dAMP radical anions are distonic radical anions. Studies have shown that the charge-radical-separating feature of the distonic radical anions is biologically relevant. This result should be important in understanding the reactive properties of these H-abstraction-produced anion radicals.
