The β-hydroxy derivatives of l-glutamic acid, l-glutamine and l-proline, useful for peptide/protein studies, were synthesized starting from d-glucose. The C2 carbon in d-glucose provided the carboxylic acid functionality, while the amino and β-hydroxy groups of the amino acids were amenable from the C3 and C4 hydroxy groups of the sugar, respectively. The key intermediate with appropriate carbon framework of the target molecules was constructed by homologation of a suitable azido-d-glucofuranose derivative using the Arndt-Eistert reaction.

Fully modified oligonucleotides were synthesised from the 3-O-phosphoramidites of monomethoxytritylated trans-3-hydroxy-N-[(N6-benzoyladenin-9-yl)-acetyl]-prolinol [(2S,3R) and (2R,3S) series], trans-3-hydroxy-N-[(thymin-1-yl)-acetyl]-prolinol [(2S,3R) and (2R,3S) series], and cis-3-hydroxy-N-[(N6-benzoyl-adenin-9-yl)-acetyl]-L-prolinol (2R,3R). Remarkably, as well the L-trans (2R,3S) as the D-trans (2S,3R) all-adenine oligonucleotides are capable of hybridisation with complementary DNA and RNA. With modified all-thymine trans-oligomers no complexation with natural nucleic acids was observed. However, complex formation between two modified strands of the same sense of chirality does occur with formation of a triple stranded complex. The all-thymine oligonucleotides with trans-3-HO-N-acetylprolinol backbone are capable of hybridisation with trans-4-HO-N-acetylprolinol oligoadenylates of the same enantiomeric form in both the D and the L series, and inversely, the all-adenine oligonucleotide with the trans-3-HO conformation hybridises with the trans-4-HO oligothymidylates. While the former interactions have a triple stranded origin, the latter are 1:1 interactions. No interactions were noticed upon mixing oligonucleotide analogues of different sense of chirality. Modified mixed trans-3-HO A,T sequences display no hybridisation with complementary nucleic acids, nor homocomplex formation. The L-cis all-adenine oligonucleotide hybridises with its RNA complement. Several complexes were investigated by circular dichroism and microcalorimetry. In conclusion, the 3-hydroxy-N-acetylprolinol system represents an example of homochiral oligonucleotides built up from two enantiomeric forms and hybridizing both with natural nucleic acids.
