چکیده

A highly organized helical pi-stacked arrangement of 1-ethynylpyrene moieties along the major groove of duplex DNA can only be achieved if more than three chromophores have been synthetically incorporated adjacent to each other.

Structural insight into DNA-assembled oligochromophores: crystallographic analysis of pyrene- and phenanthrene-modified DNA in complex with BpuJI endonuclease

The use of the DNA duplex as a supramolecular scaffold is an established approach for the assembly of chromophore aggregates. In the absence of detailed structural insight, the characterization of thus assembled oligochromophores is, today, largely based on solution-phase spectroscopy. Here, we describe the crystal structures of three DNA-organized chromophore aggregates. DNA hybrids containing...

Self-assembled nanostructures of optically active phthalocyanine derivatives. Effect of central metal ion on the morphology, dimension, and handedness.

Four optically active {(2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-octa[(S)-2-methylbutoxy]} phthalocyanine derivatives with different central metal ions, namely (S)-H2Pc(β-OC5H11)8 (1), (S)-ZnPc(β-OC5H11)8 (2), (S)-CuPc(β-OC5H11)8 (3), and (S)-NiPc(β-OC5H11)8 (4) have been synthesized and their self-assembly behaviors systematically investigated by electronic absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, sca...

Electrochemical Oxidation of Flavonoids and Interaction with DNA on the Surface of Supramolecular Ionic Liquid Grafted on Graphene Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

The study of the interaction between DNA and small molecules such as drugs is one of the current general interest and importance. In this paper, the electrochemical investigation of the interaction between some flavonoids such as rutin, quercetin, and hesperidin with dsDNA on the surface of Supramolecular Ionic Liquid grafted on the Graphene Oxide Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode (</s...

Preparation of supramolecular chromophoric assemblies using a DNA duplex.

Organization of supramolecular assemblies of chromophores with precisely-controlled orientation and sequence remains challenging. Nucleic acids with complementary base sequences spontaneously form double-helical structures. Therefore, covalent attachment of chromophores to DNA or RNA can be used to control assembly and orientation of chromophores. In this perspective, we first review our recent...

Supramolecular helical porphyrin arrays using DNA as a scaffold.

A diphenyl porphyrin substituted nucleotide was incorporated site specifically into DNA, leading to helical stacked porphyrin arrays in the major groove of the duplexes. The porphyrins show an electronic interaction which is significantly enhanced compared to the analogous tetraphenyl porphyrin (TPP) as shown in the large exciton coupling of the porphyrin B-band absorbance. Analogous to the TPP...
