Abstract
Feeling groovy: A family of nonmacrocyclic G-quadruplex binders with alternate oxazole and pyridine motifs was prepared. The shown heptacyclic derivative exhibits an unprecedented binding preference for certain quadruplex topologies: it recognizes exclusively the human telomeric quadruplex in Na + buffer but not in K + buffer. This unique quadruplex binding profile is strongly dependent on the size of the ligand and may result from groove interactions.
