A series of thio- and selenopyrylium analogues of 2,4-di(4-dimethylaminophen-yl)-6-methylthiopyrylium iodide were prepared in five steps from 4-dimethylaminophenyl-propargyl aldehyde and the corresponding lithium acetylide. When bound to DNA, all of the dyes absorb at wavelengths >600nm, which avoids the hemoglobin band I maximum at 575nm. The binding of the series of dyes to double-stranded DNA was examined spectrophotometrically and by isothermal titration calorimetry to determine binding constants, by a topoisomerase I DNA unwinding assay, by competition dialysis with [poly(dGdC)](2) and [poly(dAdT)](2), and by ethidium bromide displacement studies to examine propensities for intercalation, and by circular dichroism studies. The dyes were found to show mixed binding modes.
