The reaction between thiols and 8-azidoadenosine derivatives.
Thiols react at room temperature in dilute solution with 8-azidoadenosine and its nucleotides to give the corresponding 8-aminoadenosine derivatives. The reaction which takes place in the dark is base-catalysed and is particularly rapid when dithiols, e.g. dithiothreitol are used.
