Abstract: | Conformational analysis of 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteroic acid and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-L -folic acid In the 360-MHz-1H-NMR.-spectrum of (6R, S)-9,9-dideuterio-5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydropteroic acid (racemic) (XIII) (AMX-System, Fig. 4) and (6R, S)-9,9-dideuterio-5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-L -folic acid (diastereomeric) (XVI) the Ha–C(6) and Ha–C(7) show a vicinal coupling constant of 6,7 Hz and the Ha–C(6) and He–C(7) one of 3,2 Hz. The first coupling constant provides evidence for an approximate trans-diaxal arrangement of Ha–C(6) and Ha–C(7), and the second for a gauche conformation of Ha–C(6) and He–C(7). The tetrahydropyrazine ring in the racemic 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydropteroic acid (III) and in the diastereomeric 5, 6, 7, 8-tetrahydro-L -folic acid (XVII) exists therefore in a half-chair conformation with a pseudoequatorial position of the side chain at C(6) (Fig.5). |
