## Abstract Large changes in the Raman spectra of calf thymus DNA are observed upon lowering the pH. In order to gain a better insight into these effects, several simulations of the Raman spectra of the guanine‐cytosine (GC) Watson–Crick and Hoogsteen base pairs are performed. By comparing the Rama
We discuss the non-planar structural stability of the NH2-group in formamide, cytosine, adenine, guanine and aniline molecules. Based on the microwave data available on small amino derivatives and on the results of PCILO conformation study it is shown that the slope of the amino group HNH plane to t
Characteristics of the Watson-Crick-type hydrogen-bonded base pairs, thymine-adenine and cytosineguanine, are presented. These were established using an ab initio molecular orbital method. Base-base interactions are revealed to have dominant roles in the structures of nucleic acids and also in their
