New 1,3-diazaphenoxazine derivatives (nitroG-Grasp-Guanidine, NGG) have been developed to covalently capture 8-nitro-cGMP in neutral aqueous solutions, which furnish a thiol reactive group to displace the 8-nitro group and a guanidine unit for interaction with the cyclic phosphate. The thiol group was introduced to the 1,3-diazaphenoxazine skeleton through a 2-aminobenzylthiol group (NGG-H) and its 4-methyl (NGG-pMe) and 6-methyl (NGG-oMe) substituted derivatives. The covalent adducts were formed between the NGG derivatives and 8-nitro-cGMP in neutral aqueous solutions. Among the NGG derivatives, the one with the 6-methyl group (NGG-oMe) exhibited the most efficient capture reaction. Furthermore, NGG-H showed a cell permeability into HEK-293 and RAW 264.7 cells and reduced the intracellular 8-nitro-cGMP level. The NGG derivatives developed in this study would become a valuable tool to study the intracellular role of 8-nitro-cGMP.
