Interaction of vanadate with monosaccharides and nucleosides: a multinuclear NMR study.
Proton, 13C and 51V nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been used to study the interaction of vanadate with several molecules containing more than one hydroxyl group, including various aldoses and nucleosides. The aldoses D-mannose and D-ribose mainly form tridentate complexes, of trigonal bipyramidal geometry, with vanadate at pH 7. These sugars use three consecutive hydroxyl groups, cis to each other, of their pyranose forms to bind vanadate in those cyclic triesters. Other aldoses, like D-glucose, which do not have this unique structural characteristic, do not form tridentate complexes, but can form weaker bidentate cyclic diesters using two consecutive pyranose cis hydroxyl groups. Of course, the pyranose forms of D-mannose and D-ribose, as well as the furanose form of D-ribose, also yield cyclic diesters of vanadate. All these aldoses form weak monodentate noncyclic monoesters of tetrahedral geometry using a single hydroxyl group. The nucleosides uridine, cytidine and adenosine form two complexes of trigonal bipyramidal geometry with vanadate. In these complexes, having 1:1 and 2:1 ligand-to-metal stoichiometries, the nucleosides form cyclic diesters with vanadate using their C2, and C3, hydroxyl groups.
