Abstract: Cyclic voltammetry was used to study the interaction between dinuclear copper(Ⅱ) complex containing dimethylglyoxime[Cu2(Hdmg)4] and DNA. The influences of pH, temperature, ionic strength and concentration of Cu2(Hdmg)4 on the interaction were described, and the mechanism of the interaction was also discussed. The result shows that Cu2(Hdmg)4 can interact with the bases of DNA to form non-electroactive complex, which can decrease the anodic peak current of Cu2(Hdmg)4. The interaction between Cu2(Hdmg)4 and ssDNA is stranger than that between Cu2(Hdmg)4 and dsDNA because of the exposed bases of ssDNA. The combining ratios of Cu2(Hdmg)4 to ssDNA and to dsDNA are 2:1 and 1:1, and the combining constants 3.56×109 and 2.75×105, respectively.

Key words: Dinuclear copper(Ⅱ) complex, Dimethylglyoxime, DNA, Cyclic voltammetry, Interaction
