Proton magnetic resonance studies of 2'-deoxyadenosine (2'-dA), 3'-deoxyadenosine (3'-dA), 5'-deoxyadenosine (5'-dA) and 8-bromo-5'-deoxyadenosine (8-Br-5'-dA) have been carried out in the temperature range between -60 degrees and +40 degrees C for ND3 solutios, +40 degrees and +100 degrees C for D2O solutions, and finally +10 degrees and +60 degrees C for pyridine solutions. The analysis is based on the two-state S in equilibrium N model of the ribose moiety proposed by Altona and Sundaralingam. In all solvents, 2'-dA favours slightly the S state of the ribose and the g+ conformer of the exocyclic CH2OH group. However, 3'-dA prefers strongly the N state of the ribose and the g+ conformation. Both the S and N states of the ribose are equally favoured by 5'-DA and 8-Br-5'-dA. Evidence for the existence of an intramolecular hydrogen bond between 0(5') and N3 in purine (beta)-nucleosides is presented. It is also concluded that cordycepin (3'-dA) exists in solution mainly in the anti conformation of the base relative to the ribose.
已对2'-脱氧腺苷(2'-dA)、3'-脱氧腺苷(3'-dA)、5'-脱氧腺苷(5'-dA)和8-溴-5'-脱氧腺苷(8-Br-5'-dA)进行了质子磁共振研究,研究温度范围如下:对于ND3溶液为-60℃至+40℃,对于D2O溶液为+40℃至+100℃,最后对于吡啶溶液为+10℃至+60℃。分析基于阿尔托纳(Altona)和孙达拉林加姆(Sundaralingam)提出的核糖部分的双态S处于平衡N模型。在所有溶剂中,2'-dA略微倾向于核糖的S态和环外CH2OH基团的g+构象异构体。然而,3'-dA强烈倾向于核糖的N态和g+构象。5'-DA和8-Br-5'-dA对核糖的S态和N态的偏好程度相同。文中给出了嘌呤(β)-核苷中O(5')与N3之间存在分子内氢键的证据。还得出结论,虫草素(3'-dA)在溶液中主要以碱基相对于核糖的反式构象存在。
