“…Phosphoramidites (dA Bz , dC Bz , T, dG dmf ) and reagents for DNA synthesis were from Proligo (Hamburg, Germany), except for dG dmfloaded controlled pore glass (cpg), which was from ABI (Warrington, UK). Phosphoramidites of modified nucleosides or caps used in this work, namely phosphoramidites of 5'-amino-2',5'-dideoxynucleosides (N*), [9,[37][38][39][40] stilbene phosphoramidites [20] and pyrenemetylpyrrolidonol phosphoramidite [9] were prepared as previously reported. The 5'-acylamidooligonucleotides (2 a, c, t; 3 a, c, t), phosphoramidates (11 a-t), primer (9) and 2-methylimidazolides (10 a-t) were prepared as described previously.…”
