The organometallic gold(I) bis-N-heterocyclic carbene complex [Au(9-methylcaffeine-8-ylidene)2]+ (AuTMX2) was previously shown to selectively and potently stabilise telomeric DNA G-quadruplex (G4) structures. This study sheds light onto the molecular reactivity and mode of action of AuTMX2 in the ce...
