A series of aromatic isonitriles were synthesized and their binding to sheep haemoglobin and horse heart myoglobin was investigated. The disubstituted ligands 2,6-dimethylphenylisonitrile and 2,6-diethylphenylisonitrile were found to bind to horse-heart myoglobin with affinities ranging from 500 to 5000 times
