Synthesis of 5′-O-Dimeth0Xytrityl-4-N-/6-Trifluoroacetamidohexyl/-2′-Deoxycytidine and its Application in the Synthesis of Biotin-Labeled Oligonucleotides

Abstract

5′3′-O-protected 4-N-tosyl-2′-deoxycyt id ine was converted with 1,6-diaminohexane to 4-N-/6-ami nohexyl/-2′-deoxycyt id i ne and then into 5′-0-d imethoxytr i ty 1 -k-N-/(-tr if luoroacetamidohexyl 1–2 ′-deoxycyt id ine, The latter was used to prepare oligonucleotides by the phosphoramidite approach. Deprotected oligomers were labeled with biotin.
