Strong intramolecular 5′‐OH⋅⋅⋅3‐N hydrogen bonds stabilize guanosine, 2′‐deoxyguanosine, and 3′‐deoxyguanosine and fold them into a single preferred conformation (see picture), even in the absence of solvent interactions or DNA backbones. This conclusion was reached by means of a study combining UV–UV and IR–UV double‐resonance laser spectroscopy and ab initio calculations.
