Thermochemical studies of N-methylpyrazole and N-methylimidazole.
The 351.1 nm photoelectron spectra of the N-methyl-5-pyrazolide anion and the N-methyl-5-imidazolide anion are reported. The photoelectron spectra of both isomers display extended vibrational progressions in the X2A' ground states of the corresponding radicals that are well reproduced by Franck-Condon simulations, based on the results of B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) calculations. The electron affinities...
متن کاملBinding site size limit of the 2:1 pyrrole-imidazole polyamide-DNA motif.
Polyamides containing N-methylimidazole (Im) and N-methylpyrrole (Py) amino acids can be combined in antiparallel side-by-side dimeric complexes for sequence-specific recognition in the minor groove of DNA. Six polyamides containing three to eight rings bind DNA sites 5-10 bp in length, respectively. Quantitative DNase I footprint titration experiments demonstrate that affinity maximizes and is...
متن کاملSolvatochromic Properties of Heteroleptic Copper(II) Complexes Containing N,N,N',N'-Tetramethylethylenediamine and 2-Aacetylcyclopentanone Ligands
Three new heteroleptic copper(II) complexes, [(tmen)Cu(dike)H2O]X where tmen = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, dike = 2-acetylcyclopentanone anion and X= ClO4- (1), Cl- (2) and Br- (3) are prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance measurements and IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy techniques. The complex 1 is fairly soluble in various organic solvents and demonstrates d...
متن کاملCyclic polyamides for recognition in the minor groove of DNA.
Small molecules that specifically bind with high affinity to any designated DNA sequence in the human genome would be useful tools in molecular biology and potentially in human medicine. Simple rules have been developed to rationally alter the sequence specificity of minor groove-binding polyamides containing N-methylimidazole and N-methylpyrrole amino acids. Crescent-shaped polyamides bind as ...
متن کاملPhotodeprotectable N-Alkoxybenzyl Aromatic Polyamides
N-alkoxybenzyl aromatic polyamides were synthesized by polycondensation of N-alkoxybenzyl aromatic diamine with equimolar dicarboxylic acid chloride in the presence of 2.2 equiv. of pyridine at room temperature for 2 days. The obtained polyamides were mainly cyclic polymers, as determined by means of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry, and s...
