Abstract
The reaction of adenosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cyclic AMP) with 0.5–2.0 molar equivalents of 2,4,6-triisopropylbenzenesulfonyl (p-toluenesulfonyl or mesitylenesulfonyl) chloride leads to the rapid formation of the three possible phosphorus diastereoisomers [RPRP, SPSP and RPSP (SPRP)] of cyclic AMP symmetrical anhydride. The diastereoisomers were characterized by 31P NMR. The cyclic AMP sulfonic mixed anhydride could not be detected.
