Abstract

Herein, the cyclic voltammetric (CV) investigations of structurally similar bisnitrocompounds (N3, N4, N5, N6, having differentCH2� spacer length) is presented. CV study offered interesting interactional possibilities of bisnitrocom- pounds with chicken blood ds.DNA at physiological pH 4.7 and human body temperature, 310 K. The results indicated strong interaction by these symmetric molecules with ds.DNA and strength of binding is found to depend on length of CH2 spacer group in their molecular structure. Thermodynamics derived from electrochemical binding parameters also favored the irre- versible interactions. Moreover, threading intercalation mode of binding is suggested based on thermodynamic and kinetic binding parameters extracted from CV studies.
