Abstract

A novel complex [Zn(Qina)2(DMSO)2] · 2DMSO (I) (Qina = quinaldic acid, DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide) has been synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction, elementary analysis, and IR spectrum. The unit cell parameters for complex I: a = 8.2884(11), b = 22.015(3), c = 9.0685(12) Å, β = 100.61(0)°, V = 1626.41(40) Å3, Z = 2, space group, P21/n. In the complex I, the Zn(II) atom was six-coordinated to form a distorted octahedral geometry by two Qina ligands and two dimethyl sulfoxide molecules. The crystal structure is stabilized by hydrogen bonds, C - H... π, π-π stacking interaction between adjacent complexes. The binding of the complex I with calf thymus DNA has been investigated by fluorescence spectroscopic studies. The result suggested that the complex intercalates into DNA base pairs.
