title: Affinity chromatography of nucleosides and nucleic acid base derivatives with nucleic acid bases or nitrobenzeneboronic acid substituted silicas.
abstract: Nucleic acid bases such as adenine and uracil, and nitrobenzeneboronic acid substituted silicas were prepared by the reaction of chloromethylbenzene substituted silica with adenine sodium salt and trimethylsilylated uracil, and nitration of benzeneboronic acid substituted silica, respectively. From the results of HPLC of nucleosides and N-ethyl derivatives of nucleic acid bases using modified silicas, hydrophobic base stacking interaction, selective hydrogen bonding interaction between purine and pyrimidine bases, and reversible cyclic boronate ester formation between diols of nucleosides with boronic acid were effective for the separation of nucleic acid related compounds. Moreover, association constants for hydrogen bonding formation of nucleic acid bases were estimated.
