Notes:
The macrocyclic polyamines 4-6, when protonated, bind strongly and selectively nucleotides (AMP, ADP, ATP) and pyrophosphate in aqueous solution. The stoichiometry of the complexes formed was determined by titration experiments followed by 31P-NMR spectroscopy. Compounds 4 and 5 form 1:1 complexes with ATP, ADP, and pyrophosphate, whereas 6 forms complexes with ATP and ADP involving 2 nucleotides and 1 receptor molecule. The stability constants of these complexes have been determined by pH-metric measurements. At pH 7, both 5 and 6 give complexes of mainly the fully protonated species 5.6H+ and 6.8H+, whereas 4 yields predominantly complexes of 4.5H+ and 4.4H+.
