Abstract
The conformation of 3'-Azido-3'-deoxythymidine-5'-monophosphate (AZTMP) in an aqueous solution buffered at pH 7.2 was determined using a combination of NMR (1H and 31P) and molecular modelling techniques. Under the conditions studied, AZTMP was found to adopt a C1'-exo, primarily beta(t) and gamma(+) conformation with torsional angle -139.9 degrees.

Joseph W. LeFevre , Kristin I. McNeill and Janet L. MooreJournal of Chemical Education2001 78 (4), 535In this four-week project, the pentacyclic triterpene friedelin is isolated from laboratory cork. The ground cork is refluxed in ethyl acetate, from which crude friedelin crystallizes. The crude product is analyzed by thin-layer chromatography and ...
