Question
Chapter 22, Problem 45P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The hydrogen-bonding interactions possible between thymine and guanine should be drawn. The reason for T-A base pairing to occur instead of T-G base-pairing should be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The structure of the double helix of DNA is stabilized by the hydrogen bonding between the nitrogenous bases of the two strands. A purine base always forms hydrogen bonds with a pyrimidine base. Adenine and thymineget paired by two hydrogen bonds and cytosine gets pair with guanine by three hydrogen bonds.

Why doesn't this carry on to form a ring by deprotonating the alpha carbon and the negatively-charged carbon attacking the C=O?
6. A solution (0.0004 M) of Fe(S2CNEt2)3 (see the structural drawing below) in chloroform
has absorption bands at:
350 nm (absorbance A = 2.34);
514 nm(absorbance A = 0.0532);
Calculate the molar absorptivity values for these bands. Comment
on their possible nature (charge transfer transitions or d-d
S
N-
transitions?).
