10. A shorter triazole-linked oligothymine did not selectively give the duplex upon addition of mercury (Figure S214), which shows that the trimer oligothymine has the minimal length for the mercury-mediated duplex.
11. Although the analysis confirmed the selective formation of mercurymediated duplex, it could not give a conclusive identification to the relative orientation of the two strands (antiparallel vs. parallel).

14. As the theoretical study predicted (ref. 8), an experimental investigation on one TH - g - T pair embedded in natural strands showed that the base pair does not accelerate the hole transport. See: J. Joseph, G. B. Schuster, Org. Lett. 2007, 9, 1843.
