Water-soluble organic dppz analogues--tuning DNA binding affinities, luminescence, and photo-redox properties.
Three new water-soluble dppz derivatives are reported, one of which binds to DNA with an affinity comparable to any mononuclear metal complex and also displays a high selectivity for GC sites.
