Resolution of racemic mixtures of carbocyclic analogues of nucleosides and assignment of their absolute configuration

Nucleosides Nucleotides Nucleic Acids. 2001 Apr-Jul;20(4-7):1359-61. doi: 10.1081/NCN-100002555.

Abstract

Racemic trans-6-chloro-9-[2-(hydroxymethyl)cyclopentyl]purine was resolved using HPLC with a chiral column. The absolute configurations of the enantiomers were determined by NMR studies of their (R)- and (S)-methoxyphenylacetates.
