ChemInform Abstract
Based on 1H NMR spectroscopy and X-ray analysis it is found that the 7-nitro compound (II) adopts N-type sugar puckering conformation, whereas the 8-methylguanosine (III) shows S-type conformation. Despite the bulky methyl group in position 8, (III) exhibits anti conformation about the N-glycosylic bond.
