A modification of our triphenylene ketal based receptor facilitates electrospray tandem mass spectrometry investigations. Binding affinities of eleven potential substrates, e.g. caffeine and other xanthine alkaloids, are probed in the gas phase with collision induced dissociation. The relative stabilities of the substrate-receptor complexes are rapidly determined and the findings are correlated with the corresponding results in solution.

Abinitio calculations have been carried out on the relative stabilities of various possible products of the reaction between cytosine and the OH radical. These products are of importance in modelling radiation damage to living tissues. The preferred theoretical gas-phase addition site is the C6 ring atom according to these calculations. The analysis of a series of possible contributions to solvent effects strongly suggests the predominance of intermolecular H bonds in stabilizing the experimentally observed C5 adduct.

The structure and relative energies of the tautomers of 5-methylcytosine in the gasphase and in different solvents are predicted using MP2 and density functional theory methods. The order of stability for these tautomers is C3>C1>C2>C4>C5>C6 calculated by MP2 and C1>C3>C2>C4>C5>C6 calculated by the B3LYP method. Relative energy calculations are performed in wide range of solvent dielectrics and in all solvents the oxo-amino C1 is predicted as the most stable tautomer. The infrared spectra of two dominant tautomers are calculated in the gas phase using HF and density functional theory. Good agreement between calculated (DFT) and experimental harmonic vibrational frequencies is found.

Relative energies of various products formed in the reaction of pyridine and pyridinium ion with the hydroxyl radical are calculated using non-empirical SCF MO techniques. The favourable electron delocalization in the meta-products, rather than the electrophilic character of the OH radical is the determining factor of relative stabilities. Calculated energy barriers along approximate reaction paths correlate with the available experimental information.
