ABSTRACT:
This invention concerns a coordination complex or salt thereof which is spectroscopically or photoactively determinable when bound to DNA having the formula ##STR1## wherein M is a suitable transition metal and each of R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 is ethylenediamine, bipyridine, phenanthroline, diazafluorene-9-one or phenanthrenequinonediimine. In the complex, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are bound to M by coordination bonds and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 may be the same or different and both are different from R.sub.3. In the preferred embodiments, the invention concerns complexes of ruthenium(Ru) or rhodium(Rh) wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are the same. The invention also concerns the complex ##STR2## wherein M is Ru or Rh and R is 9-10-phenanthrenequinonediimine or 5-nitrophenanthroline.
