Abstract

The structures and properties of metal cationized complexes of 9-ethylguanine (9eG) and 1-methylcytosine (1mC), (9eG:1mC)M⁺, where M⁺ = Li⁺, Na⁺, K⁺, Rb⁺, Cs⁺ as well as the protonated complex, (9eG:1mC)H⁺, have been studied using a combination of IRMPD spectroscopy and computational methods.
