    Abstract:
    Changes in the ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectra of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD), of its synthetic analogues, and of adenosine and its derivatives in the presence of high concentrations of orthophosphate were studied. The role of the carboxamide group of the nicotinamide moiety of NAD on these spectral changes was investigated by replacing that group with an acetyl or aldehyde group. The effect of the 6-amino group of the purine was investigated by studying the interaction of deamino-NAD and various adenosine derivatives with orthophosphate. 2,4-Dinitrophenol was also found to give a charge transfer complex with phosphate. Molar extinction coefficients (E) and association constants (K) of these charge transfer reactions were determined.
