Abstract

The interaction of the tricyclic angular azaaromatic system having positive charged side chains withDNA, influence of molecular structure of the ligand on the mode of noncovalent binding, and stability of the complex formed were established. Several (N,N-diethylamino)alkoxy derivatives of 1,7-, 1,8-, 1,10- and 4,7-phenanthroline in the protonated form were used as ligand. The electronic and steric factors were shown as responsible for the electrostatic and intercalative interactions of the ligand withDNA. The syntheses of (N,N-diethylamino)alkoxy derivatives from parent phenanthrolines were elaborated.

Zusammenfassung

Die Wechselwirkung von trizyklischen, azaaromatischen Systemen mit positiver Ladung an Seitenketten mitDNA, der Einfluß der molekularen Struktur des Liganden bei nonkovalenter Bindung und die Stabilität des gebildeten Komplexes wurde bestimmt. Als Liganden wurden mehrere (N,N-diethylamino)alkoxy-Verbindungen von 1,7-, 1,8-, 1,10- und 4,7-Phenanthrolin in protonierter Form benutzt. Es wurde gezeigt, daß die elektronischen und sterischen Faktoren für elektrostatische und intercalative Wechselwirkungen des Ligand undDNA verantwortlich sind. Es wurden Synthesen von (N,N-diethylamino)alkoxy-phenanthrolinen aus entsprechenden Chlorverbindungen ausgearbeitet.
