The DNA binding interactions of Ru(II) polypyridyl complexes

Abstract

This thesis reports on the synthesis, characterisation, enantiomeric resolution, 1H NMR structural study and physical evaluation of a series of certain bidentate ligand metal complexes, where 'L-L' denotes the ancillary bidentate ligand and 'intercalator' indicates the intercalating bidentate ligand. The L-L series varies in size and shape. Results of many tests and projects conducted are explained in detail.
