Monometallic complexes of 1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane containing an imidazolium side: synthesis, characterization, and their interaction with plasmid DNA.
The synthesis of macrocyclic polyamine monometallic complexes containing imidazolium salt groups was reported. Their interaction with pUC19 plasmid DNA was studied. The result showed that these complexes can catalyze the DNA cleavage with unprecedented reactivity under physiological conditions.
