Abstract

The novel covalent conjugates 1 and 2 of porphyrins and tetraaza macrotricycles have been prepared. The compounds dissolve freely in aqueous buffer at neutral pH and bind nucleotides with good affinity, but insignificant selectivity. Heterodimer formation with porphyrin carboxylic anions was detected in the gas phase corroborating the prediction of force- field calculations.
