2-Hydrazinyl-1,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-5-ol dihydrochloride 2, as well as 2-hydrazinyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazole dihydrochloride 1, was synthesized as metal-free DNA cleaving agent. Agarose gel electrophoresis was used to assess the plasmid pUC 19 DNA cleavage activities in the presence of 1 and 2. DNA cleavage efficiency of 2 exhibits remarkable increases compared with its corresponding non-hydroxy compound 1. Kinetic data of DNA cleavage promoted by 2 fit to the Michaelis–Menten-type equation with kmaxof 0.0378±0.0013h−1giving 106-fold rate acceleration over uncatalyzed DNA. The acceleration is driven by the spatial proximity of the nucleophilic hydroxy group and the electrophilic activation for the phosphodiester by the ammonium and/or guanidinium groups. In vitro cytotoxic activities toward Hela cells and human leukemia HL-60 cells were also examined, and 2 exhibits stronger cytotoxic activities than 1.
