Ruthenium(III) ion complexes with nucleic acid bases and nucleosides.
Complexes of the nucleic bases adenine (ade), guanine (guaH), cytosine (cyt), 2-thio-cytosine (thio-cyt), and the nucleosides adenosine (ado), guanosine (guoH), and inosine (inoH) with ruthenium trichloride have been prepared and characterized by infrared spectroscopy, diffuse reflectance spectra, conductivity, and magnetochemical measurements. On comparison of the infrared spectra of the prepared compounds with previous studies, suggestions are made about the binding site of the metal to the ligand. The complexes have normal magnetic moments close to the spin-only value. The electronic spectra confirms the octahedral structure of the complexes.
