Abstract
Synthesis and assembly studies of a guanosine−cytidine dinucleoside 1 that self-assembles into a trimeric supramolecule (I) are presented. Dinucleoside 1 was obtained by utilizing two consecutive palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Ensemble I was analyzed by ESI-MS, NMR spectroscopies, size exclusion chromatography (SEC), and vapor pressure osmometry (VPO).
