Abstract

For the first time, the full molecular-zwitterionic 9-methylguanine family has been obtained in vacuum, water, DMSO, and the ε = 4 continuum. It is shown that it consists of 14 molecular tautomers and 18 zwitterions, 9 of which are ylides.

Keywords9-methylguanine, prototropic tautomerism
