Abstract

15N solid-state NMR refocused INADEQUATE spectra of two lipophilic deoxyguanosine derivatives unambiguously identify different intermolecular hydrogen-bonding arrangements that are indicative of either guanine ribbon or quartet self-assembly. The observation of guanine quartet formation in the absence of metal ions is a further example that challenges the accepted dogma that quartet formation requires metal ions.
