Rko. Sigel et al., Combining four different model nucleobases (uracil, adenine, guanine, cytosine) via metal binding and H bond formation in a single compound, CHEM COMMUN, (1), 1999, pp. 19-20
A cyclic arrangement of the four model nucleobases 1-methyluracilate (mura)
, 9-ethyladenine (eade), 9-ethylguanine (Hegua) and 1-methylcytosine (mcyt)
, held together by two metal entities [trans-(NH3)(2)Pt-II and trans-(MeNH2
)(2)Pt-II] and multiple H bond interactions, is presented.
