Abstract

Simple 1:1 adducts of the antitumor complex, Rh 2(acetate) 4, have been prepared with Adenine and Adenosine, and the binding site assigned as N 7 of the purine ring. The similarity in properties between these species and those of Rh 2(acetate) 4/DNA solutions indicates unequivocally the same binding site for DNA and the specificity of the reaction is interpreted as due to the presence of favorable H-binding interaction between the exocyclic amino group of adenine and the hydrogen-bond acceptor acetate ligand.
