Mechanistic Aspects of Ligand Substitution oncis-diaqua-chloro-tris(Dimethyl Sulfoxide) Ruthenium(II) Complex by Adenosine and Cytidine in Aqueous Medium
Abstract:The interaction of the cis-diaqua-chloro-tris(dimethyl sulfoxide)ruthenium(II) complex with selected nucleosides such as adenosine (L 1 H) and cytidine (L 2 H) has been studied spectrophotometrically in aqueous medium as a function of [substrate complex], [ligand] and temperature. The reaction has been monitored at 295 nm where the difference in spectra between the reactant and product is a maximum. At pH 5.0, the interaction with the two nucleosides shows two distinct consecutive steps, i.e., it shows a non-l… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
