Heavy metal-pyrimidine nucleotide interaction: x-ray structure of a cadmium derivative of cytidine 5′-monophosphate

Abstract
An X-ray crystal-structure determination has shown that the compound [Cd(5′-CMP)(H2O)],H2O has a polymeric structure in which each cadmium atom is bonded to five atoms: to the N(3) position on the base, to a phosphate oxygen from each of three other 5′-CMP groups and to a water molecule.
