Abstract

The molecular structure of a silver-adenine metallamacrocycle, its propensity to aggregate and its luminescent properties are investigated. The unusual coordination mode, resemblance to biological purine quartets and the presence of silver-mediated helical motifs represents an example of metal-nucleobase interaction.
