Summary
The presence of a conservative excitonic term in the ultraviolet circular dichroism spectra of NADP(H)-Cu2+ complexes in equimolar solution (5·10−4M/l) shows the existence of an intermolecular association by formation of a stable Cu2+-bridged stacked adduct between the purine moieties of 2 neighbouring dinucleotides.
