Torsion angles<#> Hh between the sugar CH bonds were deduced from X-ray data on 60 nucleosides and nucleoside phosphates with the aid of the pseudorotation model for five-membered rings. Two pseudo-rotation ranges were considered classified as type N [C (2')-exo, C (3')-endo] and type S [C (2')-endo, C (3')-exo] con-formers, each characterized by a narrow range of the phase angle of pseudorotation P. The various values of Hh along the ring bonds, andhence the corresponding coupling constants, must obey certain interrelationships. It was shown that the coupling-3-as well as the sum-2-+ Jw should be practically independent of the position of the N<= í S conformational equilibrium; values taken from the literature were then used to extract a set ofKarplus parameters valid for thesystem in question. Theeffect of pseudorotation (within each of the two ranges of P) on the coupling constants is explored. For all practical purposes, the percentage of S-type conformer in aqueous solution of the common nucleosides and nucleoside phosphates can be calculated by taking lO/vs·. The purine ribosides show a small conformational preference for the S type conformer (AGav=—0.12 kcal mol-1), whereas the pyrimidine derivatives slightly favor the N-type ribose conformer (AGa,,=+ 0.16 kcal mol-1).
