Multimetallic complexes having π-conjugated dithiolate ligands have recently received attention because of their unique solid-state properties. Reported herein are efficient and versatile routes for the synthesis of structurally well-defined multimetallic gold–bis(dithiolene) complexes. A dichlorogold(III) complex having a benzene-1,2-dithiolate ligand was prepared as a key terminal unit. A one-dimensional
In this report, we present the synthesis of N8-glycosylated 8-aza-2-methylhypoxanthine and 8-aza-6-thiohypoxanthine 2'-deoxynucleosides as well as methylated 2'-deoxynebularine derivatives. In vitro base pairingproperties between each modified and canonical nucleobase were studied. As demonstrated by Tm, incorporation of the modified bases in DNA resulted, with few exceptions, in low stability of
