B-DNA Structure and Stability as Function of Nucleic Acid Composition. Dispersion-Corrected DFT Study of Dinucleoside-Monophosphate Single and Double…

actions of the sugar-phosphate skeleton with water; (6) hydrophobic interactions of the DNA cylindrical core, made up by the hydrogen-bonded and stacked nitrogen bases, with the water solvent. Recently, there has been increasing effort in developing and applying quantum chemical methods able to reproduce the structure of native B-DNA and to correctly describe the energy involved in the intrastrand and interstrand noncovalent interactions between the nucleotide monomers. This topic has been approached by both wave function methods and density functional theory. [2] Water solvent and sodium counterions also play an important role in the formation and relative stabilization of the double-helic…
Tunable Spin-Crossover Behavior of the Hofmann-like Network {Fe(bpac)[Pt(CN) 4 ]} through Host-Guest Chemistry
2013
A study of the spin-crossover (SCO) behavior of the tridimensional porous coordination polymer {Fe(bpac)[Pt(CN)4]} (bpac=bis(4-pyridyl) acetylene) on adsorption of different mono- and polyhalobenzene guest molecules is presented. The resolution of the crystal structure of {Fe(bpac)[Pt(CN) 4]}A?G (G=1,2,4-trichlorobenzene) shows preferential guest sites establishing I?A?A?A?I? stacking interactions with the host framework. These host-guest interactions may explain the relationship between the modification of the SCO behavior and both the chemical nature of the guest molecule (electronic factors) and the number of adsorbed molecules (steric factors).

Crystal structure of 2-hydroxyimino-2-(pyridin-2-yl)-N'-[1-(pyridin-2-yl)ethylidene]acetohydrazide
2014
The molecule of the title compound is approximately planar with the planes of the two pyridine rings inclined to one another by 5.51 (7)°. In the crystal, molecules are linked by bifurcated O—H⋯(O,N) hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers, which are in turn linked via C—H⋯O and C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming sheets lying parallel to (502).
Crystal structure of 4-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-(morpholin-4-yl)pyridazin-3(2H)-one
2015
In the crystal, pairs of centrosymmetrically related molecules are linked into dimers via N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming (8) ring motifs. The dimers are connected via C—H⋯O and C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network·Semi-empirical molecular orbital calculations were carried out using the AM1 method.

2017
The molecular structure of the title compound, [FePt(CN)4(C14H8N2)2(H2O)2]n, consists of one-dimensional polymeric [–Fe–NC–Pt(CN)2–CN–]∞chains. Two water molecules and two monodentate 1,4-bis(pyridin-4-yl)buta-1,3-diyne (bpb) ligand molecules complete the octahedral coordination sphere of the FeIIatoms. The Fe—N(py) bond length (py is pyridine) is 2.2700 (15) Å, Fe—N(cyanide) is 2.1185 (16) Å and the Fe—O distance is 2.1275 (14) Å. The water molecules are hydrogen bonded to either bpb ligands or cyanide groups of the planar [Pt(CN)4]2−anion of adjacent polymeric chains. These O—H...N hydrogen bonds, in conjunction with offset and tilted π–π stacking interactions between bpb ligands and cyan…
Intercalation of daunomycin into stacked DNA base pairs. DFT study of an anticancer drug
2008
We have computationally studied the intercalation of the antitumor drug daunomycin into six stacks of Watson-Crick DNA base pairs i.e., AT-AT, AT-TA, GC-AT, CG-TA, GC-GC, GC-CG) using density functional theory (DFT). The proton affinity of the DNA intercalater daunomycin in water was computed to be 159.2 kcal/mol at BP86/TZ2P, which is in line with the experimental observation that daunomycin is protonated under physiological conditions. The intercalation interaction of protonated daunomycin with two stacked DNA base pairs was studied through a hybrid approach in which intercalation is treated at LDA/TZP while the molecular structure of daunomycin and hydrogen-bonded Watson-Crick pairs is c…
