This represents a rare example of aryl azide stability under Friedel-Crafts acylation conditions. TFAA 1 and PAA 2 have been prepared in high specific activity tritium-labeled form (19 Ci/mmol) and shown to undergo selective and efficient photocovalent attachment to ER from rat uterus. Both azides 1 and 2 demonstrate high binding affinity for ER as determined by both a competitive binding assay (relative binding affinities: estradiol = 100; TFAA = 9.3; PAA = 66) and a direct binding assay (K$\\sb{\\rm d}$: estradiol = 0.24 nM; TFAA = 2.64 nM; PAA = 0.37 nM). When unlabeled TFAA 1 and the corresponding PAA 2 are irradiated at $>$315 nm, they demonstrate site specific photoinactivation of ER that reaches 43% and 55%, respectively, by 30 min. Specific photocovalent attachment to ER can be effected by irradiation of the tritium-labeled azides; the covalent attachment efficiency is good (1 = 20-30%, 2 = 25-50%) and the selectivity of ER labeling is high. Characterization of the photolabeled proteins by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis shows specific labeling of a major component at M$\\sb{\\rm r}$60,000 and a minor species at M$\\sb{\\rm r}$46,000, the same two species that are labeled by ($\\sp3$H) tamoxifen aziridine, a known affinity label for ER. These two azides provide the first system in which the photocovalent attachment efficiency of an aryl azide can be compared to its tetrafluoro-substituted aryl azide analog in a complex biological receptor system.

The binding affinity of DU41165 for PgR was determined by both a competitive binding assay and a direct binding assay (Scatchard analysis) to be 1.6-2.2-times higher than that of the high affinity synthetic progestin promegestone (R5020).
