The adeninate anion (Ade−) is a useful nucleophile used in the synthesis of many prodrugs (including those for HIV AIDS treatment). It exists as a contact ion-pair (CIP) with Na+ and K+ (M+) but the site of coordination is not obvious from spectroscopic data. Herein, a molecular-wide and electron density-based (MOWED) computational approach implemented in the implicit solvation model showed a strong preference for bidentate ion coordination at the N3 and N9 atoms. The N3N9-CIP has (i) the strongest inter-ionic interaction, by −30 kcal mol−1, with a significant (10–15%) covalent contribution, (ii) the most stabilized bonding framework for Ade−, and (iii) displays the largest ion-induced polarization of Ade−, rendering the N3 and N9 the most negative and, hence, most nucleophilic atoms. Alkylation of the adeninate anion at these two positions can therefore be readily explained when the metal coordinated complex is considered as the nucleophile. The addition of explicit DMSO solvent molecules did not change the trend in most nucleophilic N-atoms of Ade− for the in-plane M-Ade complexes in M-Ade-(DMSO)4 molecular systems. MOWED-based studies of the strength and nature of interactions between DMSO solvent molecules and counter ions and Ade− revealed an interesting and unexpected chemistry of intermolecular chemical bonding. |
