Whether purine nucleosides have steric interaction, like pyrimidine nucleosides that results in anti-conformation.

Introduction:

Nucleosides can be definedas the molecules that have a pentose sugar attached with a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous base is also called nucleobase. Purines are aromatic heterocyclic organic compounds that have imidazole fused pyrimidine rings. These molecules are soluble in water.
