Abstract

The supramolecular interaction between calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) and Coumarin 153 in the presence of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) or C-hexylpyrogallol[4]arene (C-HPA) was studied. Inclusion complexes of Coumarin 153 with β-CD and C-HPA were characterised by infrared spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and two-dimensional rotating-frame nuclear overhauser effect spectroscopy. The inclusion complexation was further followed by steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence measurements. The influence of β-CD or C-HPA in the binding strength and binding model of C153 with ctDNA was studied by UV–visible, fluorescence and molecular modelling technique. The possible group of interaction of Coumarin 153 with DNA, β-CD and C-HPA was shown by molecular modelling technique.
