Abstract: | Two novel acyclic copper(II) complexes, Cu(L1) (1) {L1 = N,N -1,2-ethanediylbisN-(phenylmethyl)glycinato]} and Cu(L2) (2), {L2 = N,N -1,2-ethanediylbisN-(3-nitrophenyl)methyl]glycinato]} have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and ES-MS. Thermal denaturation, fluorescence spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry have been conducted to assess the interaction of the two complexes with calf thymus DNA. Interestingly, the two copper(II) complexes have been found to cleave circular plasmid pBR322 DNA to the nicked form (Form II) and the linear form (Form III) under aerobic conditions. |
