2′-Deoxy-5-methylisocytidine

Abstract: In the title compound, 2-amino-1-(2-deoxy-beta-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-5-methylpyrimidin++ +-4 (1H)-one, C(10)H(15)N(3)O(4), the conformation of the N-glycosidic bond is syn and the 2-deoxyribofuranose moiety adopts an unusual (O)T(1) sugar pucker. The orientation of the exocyclic C4'-C5' bond is +sc (+gauche).

“…According to Steiner (2002), for bifurcated hydrogen bonds with distinctly different hydrogen-acceptor separations, the shorter interaction is defined as the major component and the longer one as the minor. A similar intramolecular bifurcated hydrogenbonding pattern was also observed in the crystal structures of 2-chloro-2 0 -deoxyadenosine, (IV) (Worthington et al, 1995), and 2 0 -deoxy-5-methylisocytidine, (V) (Seela et al, 2000). The minor component utilizes atom O4 0 as acceptor, with N6Á Á ÁO4 0 = 3.1676 (15) Å and N6-H6BÁ Á Á O4 0 = 143 .…”

“…Isocytosine can exist in various tautomeric forms, however, the experimental and theoretical data are consistent with the fact that 1-substituted iC adopts the 2-amino-4-oxo form ( Figure 1A) in environments of intermediate to high polarity ( [31] and references cited therein). 2h-Deoxy-5-methylisocytidine exists in the 2-amino-4-oxo form in the crystalline state [34].…”

“…We assume that our experimental observation that D-pr( Me isoC 8 ) pairs with L-pr(G 8 ) (heterochiral case) but not with D-pr(isoG 8 ) (isochiral case) can be interpreted accordingly: the main structural difference between the isocytosine and the canonical nucleobases of relevance for the interpretation of this observation is the 2-amino group replacing the O-atom. When incorporated into a ribopyranosyl nucleotide, the protons of the isocytosine amino group and the anomeric proton sustain a steric strain, which can be relieved by a change of the nucleosidic torsion angle c, presumably specific for the isocytosine moiety in direction and/or extent in relation to the other canonical pyrimidine nucleobases (see [15] for the furanosebased nucleotide). In Fig.…”
