Abstract: | A porphyrin meso-tetrakis{4-(1-pyridyl)propoxy]phenyl}porphyrin (TPyPP) and its Ni complex (TPyPP(Ni)) have been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, UV-vis spectra. The interaction of two porphyrins with calf thymus-DNA (CT-DNA) has been explored by UV-vis, fluorescence and circular dichroic spectroscopy and viscosity measurements. The results suggest that these porphyrins can bind to DNA by the same binding mode. TPyPP outside binds by self-stack with DNA both at low drug load r (=porphyrin]/DNA]) and high drug load. Though TPyPP(Ni) has center metal nickel, binding mode with DNA has little difference compared with TPyPP, dominating out-binding mode with different direction along DNA. The binding constants of the TPyPP and TPyPP(Ni) to DNA were 4.65 x 10(5) M(-1) and 3.2 x 10(5) M(-1), respectively. A colored precipitate was found after time in two porphyrin's viscosity measurement. The reasonable interpretation is the porphyrins with alkyl connected N-position of pyridine can strongly interact with the anionic phosphates of DNA and lead to hydrophobic complex. |
