Question
Chapter 14, Problem 22RQ
Summary Introduction
To review:
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
