Abstract
The interaction of gold(III) trichlorophenanthridine complex, [Au(phend)Cl3], with calf thymus DNA was investigated by UV–Vis absorption, circular dichroism, and fluorescence spectrophotometery as well as viscometry, cyclic voltammetry (CV), and molecular docking. The values of binding constants K b (obtained by UV–Vis) and K f (obtained by fluorescence) are 3 × 104 and 7.68 × 105 M−1, respectively. Evidence for intercalation comprised a hyperchromic effect at 210 nm and a hypochromic effect at 250 nm caused by the ligand, increasing the T m of DNA, increasing of viscosity, increasing the intensity of the positive peak, decreasing the intensity of the negative peak, and the positive shift of the cathodic peak potential in CV.
