摘要
(Chemical Equation Presented) Nine spermines are better than one: Compound C2 exhibits high-affinity, salt-independent DNA binding as a consequence of the spermine array on its surface. Comparison with smaller dendrons and model compounds indicates a clear multivalency effect on binding. © 2005 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA.
