4 S1. Experimental Section: The phosphoramidite and the oligonucleotides were synthesized as reported previously. [1] The desalted oligonucleotides were characterized by MALDI ToF mass spectrometry using a 3 hydroxypicolinic acid/ ammonium citrate matrix. For quantification of the oligonucleotides, a molar extinction coefficient ԑ 260 = 10.0 cm 2 mmol 1 was used for P.

Temperature dependent UV spectra were recorded on a Cary100 Bio instrument from 10 C to 70 C at 1 C min 1. In the UV melting profiles the absorbance at 260 nm was normalized according to A norm = (A A min )/(A max A min ). Melting temperature (T m,uv ) values were determined from the maxima of the first derivatives of the respective melting profiles. CD spectra were recorded at 10 C on JASCO J 815 instrument, smoothed and baseline corrected. Temperature dependent CD spectra was recorded from 10 C to 70 C with a heating rate of 0.5 C min 1. CD melting profile were obtained by fitting the molar ellipticity at 284 nm or 303 nm using a sigmoidal equation. The melting temperature T m,cd was determined from the first derivative of the fitted curve. All reagents were degassed three times prior to the measurement to get rid of dissolved oxygen from the solution. [2] Experimental conditions were 1 M duplex, 20 mm NaClO 4, 5 mm MOPS (ph 6.8), 50 mm acetonitrile. [Cu(ACN) 4 ]PF 6 and Cu(ClO 4 ) 2 were used as Cu I and Cu II salt, respectively, throughout all experiments. For the redox experiments, Na 2 SO 3 (500 M) was used as reducing agent and KNO 3 (1 mm) as oxidizing agent. 2
