Abstract: | A tritriacontanucleotide which has the sequence of the 5half molecule of E.coli glycine tRNA2, was synthesized by the phosphotriester method involving p-anisidate protection for the 3phosphate ends. Di- and trinucleotide units were prepared from 5dimethoxytrityl-2O-tetrahydrofuranyl-3?-O-(o-chlorophenyl)phosphoryl derivatives of uridine, N-benzoylcytidine, N-benzolyadenosine and N-iso-butyrylguanosine by condensation with 35unprotected nucleosides followed by phosphorylation to give 3phosphodiester blocks. The 3terminal dimers and trimers were synthesized by using 3(o- chlorophenyl)phosphoro-p-anisidates instead of 3?,5?-unprotected nucleosides. The 3?-phosphodiesters of oligonucleotides with a chain length of larger than 5 were obtained by removal of the 3?-phosphoro-p-anisidate with isoamyl nitrite. The 5dimethoxytrityl group was removed by treatment with zinc bromide under anhydrous conditions. Fragments were designed to use common dimer blocks and to reduce the step for 5deblocking of larger fragments. Finally a 3phosphodiester block with a chain length of 20 was condensed with a 5OH component (tridecanucleotide). The fully protected 33 mer was deblocked and purified by chromatography. The structural integrity of the product was confirmed by mobility shift analysis and complete digestion with RNase T2. |
