These findings could pave the way for further exploration into DNA-targeted metal complexes.

Implication

This research reports the synthesis of RuII(dppz) complexes using tris(pyridin-2-yl)methylamine, revealing unique DNA binding properties.

Abstract

By employing the facially coordinated tris(pyridin-2-yl)methylamine ligand, a route to the synthesis of the complex ([Ru(tpyma)(dppz)(py)]2+ (dppz = dipyrido[3,2-a:2’,3’-c]phenazine) py = pyridine) is reported. Detailed NMR spectroscopy and crystallographic studies...
