6-Thio-dG, 4-Thio-dT and 4-Thio-dU are protected as the S-cyanoethyl ether which is stable during synthesis and readily removed by ammonium hydroxide. It is critical to add 50mM sodium hydrosulfide (NaSH) to the ammonium hydroxide used for deprotection. Especially if room temperature deprotection is carried out, this technique radically reduces the level of ammonolysis which would lead to undesired aminated bases. Moreover, it is also desirable to remove the cyanoethyl protecting group (1M DBU in acetonitrile, 2-5h/RT) prior to the ammonium hydroxide cleavage and deprotection.
4-Thio-dU-CE Phosphoramidite
5'-Dimethoxytrityl-2'-deoxy-4-(2-cyanoethylthio)-Uridine,3'-[(2-cyanoethyl)- (N,N-diisopropyl)]-phosphoramidite |
