Tiivistelmä
Hydrolytic reactions of guanosyl-(3',3')-uridine and guanosyl-(3',3')-(2',5'-di-O-methyluridine) have been followed by RP HIPLC over a wide pH range at 363.2 K in order to elucidate the role of the 2'-hydroxyl group as a hydrogen-bond donor upon departure of the 3'-uridine moiety. Under neutral and basic conditions, guanosyl-(3',3')-uridine undergoes hydroxide ion-catalyzed cleavage (first order in [OH-]) of the P-O3' bonds, giving uridine and guanosine 2',3'-cyclic monophosphates, which are subsequently hydrolyzed to a mixture of 2'- and 3'-monophosphates. This bond rupture is 23 times as fast as the corresponding cleavage of the P-O3' bond of guanosyl-(3',3')-(2',5'-di-O-methyluridine) to yield 2',5'-O-dimethyluridine and guanosine 2',3'-cyclic phosphate. Under acidic conditions, where the reactivity differences are smaller, depurination and isomerization compete with the cleavage. The effect of Zn2+ on the cleavage of the P-O3' bonds of guanosyl-(3',3')-uridine is modest: about 6-fold acceleration was observed at [Zn2+] = 5 mmol L-1 and pH 5.6. With guanosyl-(3',3')-(2',5'-di-O-methyluridine) the rate-acceleration effect is greater: a 37-fold acceleration was observed. The mechanisms of the partial reactions, in particular the effects of the 2'-hydroxyl group on the departure of the 3'-linked nucleoside, are discussed.
