JV6 7^ V6-Dibenzoyl-2', 3'-0-isopropylideneadenosine, which is readily synthesized by one-pot S'-O-trimethylsilylation, N6-benzoylation, and desilylation, was converted to the corresponding S'-aldehyde. This was treated with CH2= CHMgBr to afford, after debenzoylation, a 1: 3 mixture of the5'S and 5'R epimers, respectively, of S'-C-vinyl-2', 3'-Q-isopropylideneadenosine. The configurations were established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of the 5'R epimer. Hydroboration of the S'-O-tetrahydropyranyl derivative of the mixed epimeric S'-C-vinyl nucleosides readily furnished 5'(S, ñ)-C-(2-hydroxyethyl)-2', 3'-Q-isopropylideneadenosine. Treatment of the 5'(S, fl)-C-(2-0-tosyl) derivative of this with disodium L-homocysteinate permitted facile introduction of the L-ethionine system. By means of methods developed earlier in thesynthesis of homologous methionine-ATP adducts, the-amino acid group was protected, a/3, 7-imidotriphosphoryl group was introduced at 05', and blocking groups were removed to give the title adduct as a 2: 3 mixture of itstwo 5'epimers. It was a powerful inhibitor [KM (ATP)/K¡= 520 and 340] of the M-2 (normal tissue) and MT (hepatoma tissue) forms, respectively, of the title enzyme and displayedpredominantly competitive kinetics with thetwo substrates L-methionine and Mg ATP. It inhibited M-2 and MT slightly less effectively than its homologuepossessing one less CH2 between sulfur and C5'and gave kinetic evidence of an increased tendency to form L-methionine-enzyme-adduct and MgATP-enzyme-adduct complexes.Evidence indicates that the MT variant of methionine adenosyltransferase (predominant in rat ascitic hepatoma cells) is of interest as a model mammalian target in an-ticancer drug design. 2, 3 The enzyme catalyzes attack of the sulfur of L-methionine (Met) on C5'of ATP with ex-pulsion of inorganic tripolyphosphate. The isozyme pre-dominant in most nonhepatic rat normal tissues is a second variant, M-2. In the course of the present series of studies on possibly useful approaches to the design of isozymespecific inhibitors, we found that inhibitors that are both potent and significantly isozyme-selective can be derived systematically and relatively readily by attaching a short substituent to an appropriate atom of a multisubstrate adduct which itself is a potent but not an isozyme-selective inhibitor. 4, 6 To help determine the scope and limitations of this approach we synthesized five types of covalent
