A conformational study of some adenosines by use of nuclear Overhauser effect
Shionogi Research Laboratory, Shionogi & Co., Ltd. Fukushima-ku, Osaka, 553 Japan
Received May 17, 1974.
Conformations of B-bromo-2'-O-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyladenosine
and its 3'-O-isomer
in solution have been determined by the use of intramolecular nuclear Overhauser effects in 1H NMR spectroscopy. Compound
has been proved to have a conformation in which the adenosine and benzene rings are intramolecularly stacked and compound
an elongated non-stacked conformation in dimethylsulphoxide. The 5'-O-acetyl derivative of
has also been found to adopt the intramolecularly stacked conformation in dimethylsulphoxide, but a non-stacked one in chloroform. Coupling constants observed are discussed in connection with the conformation of the ribose moiety. The 13C NMR spectra have also been examined, but no effect which could be ascribed to the stacking phenomena was observed in the carbon chemical shifts.
