摘要
The interactions of each of three phenanthroline derivatives 1, 2 and 3 with the human telomeric/-motif DNA were investigated. The results suggest these compounds are potent binders. The compounds could stabilize the structure of i-motif DNA by π-π stacking. Moreover, the binding constants of the compounds with/-motif DNA were （2.71-8.12）×10^4 L·mol^-1, and the binding stoichiometry ratio was 1：1. CD studies reveal that the binding by phenanthroline comoounds perturbs the conformation of i-motif DNA.
