Abstract: Interaction of bivalent (Cu, Ni, Zn, C , Mg and Ca) and trivalent (La, Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy and Y) metal ions with pyrimidine nucleosides (cytidine and uridine) in the presence of amino acids (alanine, phenylalanine and tryptophan) has been investigated by potentiometric pH measurements at 35°C and 0.10 mol dm-3 (KNO3) ionic strength. Influence of charge on and the discriminating tendencies of these nuc1eosides towards stacking interactions have been discussed. Stabilization and destabilization of these ternary complexes ar quantified in terms of log K values. No interaction is observed with Mg(II) and Ca(II).
