Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has been widely applied in the identification and characterization of DNA structures with high efficiency. Especially, the SERS signals of the adenine group have exhibited high detection sensitivity in several biomolecular systems. However, there is still no unanimous conclusion regarding the interpretation of some special kinds of SERS signals of adenine and its derivatives on silver colloids and electrodes. This Letter presents a new photochemical azo coupling reaction for adenyl residues, in which the adenine is selectively oxidized to (E)-1,2-di(7H-purin-6-yl) diazene (azopurine) in the presence of silver ions, silver colloids, and electrodes of nanostructures under visible light irradiation. The product, azopurine, is first found to be responsible for the SERS signals. This photoelectrochemical oxidative coupling reaction of adenine and its derivatives is promoted by plasmon-mediated hot holes and is regulated by positive potentials and pH of solutions, which opens up new avenues for studying azo coupling in the photoelectrochemistry of adenine-containing biomolecules on electrode surfaces of plasmonic metal nanostructures.
