Abstract
In this study, a new imine compound (M) was prepared from the reaction of o-vanillin and 4-isopropylaniline. The structure of the compound was characterized by the spectroscopic andanalytical methods. Single crystals of the compound were grown and solid-state structure ofthe compound was further characterized by X-ray diffraction study. The UV-Vis absorptionand emission properties of the compound were studied in different solvents. Moreover, DNAbinding ability of the compound was investigated and compared with the standard DNAbinding agents. The compound showed similar binding constant (4 x 105 M-1) to thosespermine and ethidiumbromide.
