Intraduplex DNA-mediated reduction is established as a general mechanism for the reduction of distally bound stacked redox-active species covalently tethered to DNA through flexible alkane linkages. Methylene Blue (MB), Nile Blue (NB), and Anthraquinone (AQ) were covalently tethered to DNA with three different covalent linkages. Using these reporters DNA electrochemistry was shown to be both DNA-mediated and intra-, rather than inter-, duplex. Significantly, the charge transport pathway occurrin ...[more]
