Tiivistelmä
Uridylyl-(3',5)-8-carboxymethylaminoadenosine has been synthesised, and its transesterification to uridine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate in the presence and absence of Zn2+ ion has been studied. The results show that a carboxylate function in the vicinity of the phosphodiester bond accelerates the metal ion promoted cleavage but not the metal ion independent reaction. Under acidic conditions, the predominant reaction is the cleavage of the side chain, giving the 8-amino derivative.
