Abstract

Guanine forms compounds with Cr(VI), Ag(I), Cd(II) and Hg(II) in acidic aqueous media. The compounds are formulated as (C5H6N5O)2(Cr2O7).H2O, [Ag{(C5H6N5O)(NO3)}2](C5H6N5O)(NO3)2, [(C5H4N5O)2Cd](C5H6N5O)Cl and [(C5H4N5O)2Hg](C5H6N5O)Cl on the basis of their metal and chloride contents.  Physico-chemical properties such as solubility, melting point, IR and UV-visible spectra, magnetic susceptibility, and thermal behavior of the compounds were studied. The composition of (C5H6N5O)2(Cr2O7).H2O was also investigated by continuous variation method.

Keywords: Nucleic acids; Guaninium ions; Pyrimidine ring; Magnetic susceptibilities.
