Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear Physical Sciences Science & Technology
An organic-inorganic hybrid Zn(II) complex has been synthesized in a "zwitterionic" form which crystallizes in triclinic P1 space group possessing labile apical chlorine atoms. DNA interaction studies were performed to enunciate the binding strength. The hydrolytic cleavage potential of the complex was substantiated and the kinetic aspects of the mechanism followed are also discussed.
