Derivative Type: Barium salt
Molecular Formula: Ba3(C10H12N5O10P2)2
Molecular Weight: 1260.34
Percent Composition: Ba 32.69%, C 19.06%, H 1.92%, N 11.11%, O 25.39%, P 9.83%
Properties: The purity of the prepns can be checked by analyses for nitrogen, ribose (orcinol reaction), total phosphorus, easily hydrolyzable phosphorus, and inorganic phosphorus. ADP should give a ratio of 2:1 for total organic phosphorus to easily hydrolyzable phosphorus. uv max (pH 7.0): 259 nm (aM 15.4 ′ 103).
