, p. 791 - 792 (1996)
A synthesis of 5′-{N-[(S)-3-amino-3-carboxypropyl]-methylamino}-5′-deoxyadenosine from D-adenosine and (S)-glutamic acid is described; this product, AzaAdoMet 2, has a pKa of 7.10 for the tertiary amino group and so acts as a charge-switchable

Homochiral syntheses of two stable nitrogen analogues of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (AdoMet) are described. In the first analogue, AzaAdoMet, the sulfonium center of AdoMet, is replaced by an N-methyl moiety whose pKa is 7.08. This provides a char
