BLM concentrations was suggested by the reversal of this trend upon aeration of the reaction mixtures.The demonstration that a synthetic dodecanucleotide can act as a sequence-selective substrate for BLM provides a powerful new tool for the study of this antitumor antibiotic at its putative therapeutic locus and a novel approach for the study of naturally occurring and synthetic DNA interactive agents.
Acknowledgment.We report herein novel photochemistry of [(acyloxy)methyl]-benzyldimethylsilanes as well as benzyltrimethylsilane.* The results provide not only definitive evidence for the formation of a benzyl radical-silyl radical pair in the primary photochemical process but also an important insight into the detailed mechanism for free-radical 1,2 (C -Si) acyloxy migration found r e~e n t l y .~
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
