C. Price et al., DIRECTED METALATION OF ADENINE-N-3 VIA NUCLEOBASE-LIGAND CONJUGATION, Journal of the Chemical Society, Chemical Communications, (22), 1995, pp. 2285-2286
The crystal and molecular structure of a copper complex prepared by re
action of metal salt with the nucleobase-ligand conjugate, ethylenedia
mine-N,9-propyladenine, reveals-the unprecedented coordination of aden
ine-N-3.
