  • Abstract
    DNA strand scission is produced by the ambient light photolysis of CpFe(CO)2Ph and H2O2, a result that shows potential as a means of targeting tumors, due to the high levels of hydrogen peroxide in cancer cells. This cleavage process is dependent on the concentration of both CpFe(CO)2Ph and H2O2, and preliminary experiments implicate both carbon-centered radicals and reactive oxygen species.
