title: The interactions between nucleic acids and polyamines. III. Microscopic protonation constants of spermidine.
abstract: Changes in the NMR chemical shifts of protons adjacent to the nitrogen atoms of Spermidine which are undergoing protonation have been measured by two-dimensional heteronuclear coupled NMR. Data thus obtained measure the dependence of the state of protonation of individual nitrogens on the pH, and permit calculation of the microprotonation constants of Spermidine and the concentrations of all of the variously protonated Spermidine species present at any pH.
