Abstract

A reliable and convenient method for determining the configuration and conformation of the furanose ring in carbohydrates and nucleosides by vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy is described. Diastereomeric pairs of several furanose monosaccharides and nucleosides were prepared, and their VCD spectra were analyzed. The results revealed that VCD spectroscopy elucidates the equibrated state of the furanose ring puckers, which is often difficult to study by other techniques.
