Abstract: | The cis isomer of 6-(4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-butenylamino)-2-methylthiopurine and its 9-β- and 9-α-d-ribofuranosyl derivatives have been synthesized and their physical and spectroscopic properties are described. The biological activities of these compounds have been determined in the tobacco bioassay and are compared with those of 6-(4-hydroxy-3-methyl-trans-2-butenylamino)-2-methylthiopurine and its β-ribofuranoside. The 6-(4-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-butenylamino)-2-methylthio-9-β-d-ribofuranosylpurine (ms-ribosylzeatin) isolated from a Pisum tRNA preparation was shown to consist of both isomers, which were separated by TLC and identified by comparisons of UV and MS with those of the synthetic compounds. |
