China, gf256@mail.ccnu.edu.cn 1. General Experimental Details. Starting materials were purchased from commercial suppliers and were used without further purification. ucleotides AMP, ADP and ATP were purchased at the highest purity available. All solvents were purified by the most used methods before use. 2-[4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazinyl]-ethanesulfonic acid (HEPES) was used to prepare buffer solution and all solutions were prepared with using distilled water that had been passed through a Millipore-Q ultrapurification system. MR spectra were measured on Varian Mercury 4 and 6 instruments, operating at 4 or 6 MHz for 1 H MR and 1 or 15 MHz for 13 C MR. IR spectra were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer Spectrum BX FT-IR spectrophotometer as KBr pellets and were reported in cm -1. Fluorescent spectra were recorded on an Agilent Cary Eclipse fluorescence spectrophotometer, respectively. 2. Synthesis of ZnL 1
