In this paper, the atomic magnetic moments and spin-splittings of the six-member ring N2C4 cluster with planar and folding configurations in DNA bases are studied, respectively. The results show that the surprising interplay between the molecular structure and their magnetic property. In the planar configuration, the cluster exhibits antiferromagnetism and ferromagnetism in the ground state and metastable state, respectively. In the folding configuration, it exhibits antiferromagnetism and ferrimagnetism in the ground state and metastable state, respectively.
