The synthesis of the four silicon analogues of acyclonucleosides was described. In every case, the silicon atom was introduced onto an allyl group on the natural nucleobase following a hydrosilylation reaction. Diols obtained were protected as 4,4′-dimethoxytrityl ethers and subsequently activated as 2-cyanoethyl N,N-diisopropylchlorophosphoramidite in order to be suitable for oligonucleotide solid phase synthesis.
Synthesis of Silicon Analogues of Acyclonucleotides Incorporable inOligonucleotide Solid-Phase Synthesis. -The novel phosphoramidites (I) are prepared in order to test their use in solid phase oligonucleotide synthesis and to study the properties of resulting oligonucleotides. -(THIBON, J.; LATXAGUE, L.; DELERIS, G.; J.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
