Unexpected Thymine Oxidation and Collision-Induced Thymine-Pt-guanine Cross-Linking on 5'-TpG and 5'-GpT by a Photoactivatable Diazido Pt(IV) Anticancer Complex.

The photochemical products of dinucleotides 5′-TpG/5′-GpT with a photoactivatable anticancer Pt(IV) complex (trans,trans,trans-[Pt(N3)2(OH)2(py)2], py = pyridine; 1) were characterized by electrosp...
