The conformation of β-pseudouridine about the glycosidic bond has been studied by both the internal nuclear Overhauser effect and CNDO molecular orbital calculations. Bothsynandanticonformations are found to exist in rapid equilibrium, with roughly equal populations of each. The proportion ofsyntoanticonformations does not change significantly with pDover the range 7.1 to 11.6. The CNDO calculations suggest that thesynconformation is stabilized by formation of a hydrogen bond, C4=O … O—H5′, but the n.m.r. data indicate that if such a bond exists its probability is the same at pD7.1 and 11.6. Major contributions to n.O.e. may occur through conformations other than those which are most stable.
