Biological reduction of fluorine-labeled indolequinone derivative (IQ-F) was characterized by (19)F NMR for quantitative molecular understanding. The chemical shift change in (19)F NMR allowed monitoring of the enzymatic reduction of IQ-F. Upon hypoxic treatment of IQ-F with NADPH:cytochrome P450 reductase, IQ-F was activated via catalytic one-electron reduction to release nonafluoro-tert-butyl alcohol (F-OH), while the formation of F-OH was significantly suppressed under aerobic conditions. Similar hypoxia-selective reduction of IQ-F occurred within A549 cells, which expresses NADPH:cytochrome P450 reductase. The kinetic analysis was also performed to propose a reaction mechanism. The molecular oxygen slightly prevents the binding of IQ-F to reductase, while the rate of net reaction was decreased due to oxidation of a semiquinone anion radical intermediate generated by one-electron reduction of IQ-F. The disappearance of IQ-F and appearance of F-OH were imaged by (19)F fast spin echo, thus visualizing the hypoxia-selective reduction of IQ-F by means of MR imaging.
