The hierarchical self-assembly of various lipophilic guanosines exposing either a phenyl or a ferrocenyl group in the C(8) position was investigated. In a solution, all the derivatives were found to self-assemble primarily into isolated guanine (G)-quartets. In spite of the apparent similar bulkiness of the two substituents, most of the derivatives form disordered structures in the solid state, whereas a specific 8-phenyl derivative self-assembles into an unprecedented, cation-free stacked G-quartet architecture.

As a part of the research aimed on identification of new nucleobase derivatives with improved biological properties, a series of novel 8-substituted acyclovir derivatives were synthesized. The 8-azidoguanosine 4 and novel 8-azidoacyclovir 9 were synthesized from commercially available guanosine 1 and acyclovir 6 which were transformed into 8-bromopurine derivatives 2 and 7 and hydrazine derivatives 3 and 8, respectively. 8-Triazolylguanosine 5 and 8-triazolylacyclovir analogs 10–12 were successfully synthesized via the Cu(I) catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azides 4 and 9 with propargyl alcohol, 4-pentyn-1-ol and 5-hexyn-1-ol. The novel 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazolyl compounds 5, 10–12 were evaluated for antiviral activity against selected DNA and RNA viruses and cytostatic activity against normal Madine Darby canine kidney (MDCK I) cells, and seven tumor cell lines (HeLa, CaCo-2, NCI-H358, Jurkat, K562, Raji and HuT78). While tested compounds exerted no antiviral activity at nontoxic concentrations, the 8-triazolyl acyclovir derivative 10, with the shortest alkyl substituent at the C-4 of triazole ring, was found to be the most active against the CaCo-2 cell line.

8-Bromo-2′-deoxy-3′,5′-di-O-acetylguanosine (1), 8-bromo-2′,3′,5′-tri-O-acetylguanosine (2), 8-bromo-2′-deoxy-3′,5′-di-O-acetyladenosine (3), and 8-bromo-2′,3′,5′-tri-O-acetyladenosine (4) react with [Pd(PPh3)4] via a C8-Br oxidative addition to give the C8-palladated azolato complexes [5]-[8] featuring an unprotonated N7 ring nitrogen atom. The complexes feature diastereotopic trans-disposed triphenylphosphine ligands, which allowed the determination of 2JPP for complexes of the type trans-[PdL2(PPh3)2] (2JPP = 442 Hz for [7]). In addition, two complex molecules of [7] form a trans-Watson-Crick/Hoogsteen AA base pair in the solid state. N7-protonation of the guanosine-derived complexes [5] and [6] with HBF4·Et2O and of adenosine-derived complexes [7] and [8] using lutidinium triflate yields complexes [9]BF4 and [10]BF4 and complexes [11]OTf and [12]OTf bearing protic NH,NR-NHC ligands derived from guanosine and adenosine, respectively.
