✦ Synopsis
B-form DNA regardless of the base composition. Even the zinc(II) derivatives prove to be good intercalators. A stepwise energy breakdown provides a simple, but effective way to illustrate competing effects that influence the binding.

## Abstract In this work, we prepared a novel series of cationic amphiphiles denoted as the Py‐cations (Py‐Gly, Py‐Ala, Py‐Cap, Py‐G~1~‐Lys and Py‐G~2~‐Lys) bearing fluorescent pyrene and various hydrocarbon linkers between the pyrene hydrophobe and cationic block. Employing these new cationic amph
