Popis: | Rare anionic forms of nucleic acids play a significant biological role and lead to spontaneous mutations and replication and translational errors. There is a lack of information surrounding the stability and reactivity of these forms. Ion pairs of mono‐sodium and ‐potassium salts of adenine exist in DMSO solution with possible cation coordination sites at the N1, N7 and N9 atoms of the purine ring. At increasing concentrations π‐π stacked dimers are the predominant species of aggregates followed by higher order aggregation governed by coordination to metal cations in which the type of counter ion present has a central role in the aggregate formation. Adeninate‐metal ion pairs exist in DMSO solution whereby the metal ion coordinates via the N3, N7 or N9 nitrogen atom or chelated between the N3–N9 atoms of the purine ring. The monovalent metal ion governs higher order aggregate formation in which the identity of the metal ion plays a role in structural arrangement. These results provide insight into the reactivity and stabilization of anionic adenine in the presence of important biological ions. |
