Oligonucleotides containing 2'-C-alpha-methyl and 2'-C-alpha-hydroxymethyl modifications enable strategies for delineation of the distinctive role fulfilled by the 2'-hydroxyl group in RNA structure and function. Synthetic routes to the phosphoramidite derivatives of 2'-deoxy-2'-C-alpha-methylcytidine (14%, 15 steps) and 2'-deoxy-2'-C-alpha-hydroxymethylcytidine (19%, 10 steps) from methyl 3,5-di-O-(4-chlorobenzyl)-alpha-d-ribofuranoside are developed.
含有2'-C-α-甲基和2'-C-α-羟甲基修饰的寡核苷酸,为阐明2'-羟基在RNA结构和功能中所起的独特作用提供了策略。已开发出从3,5-二-O-(4-氯苄基)-α-D-呋喃核糖苷甲基合成2'-脱氧-2'-C-α-甲基胞苷(产率14%,15步)和2'-脱氧-2'-C-α-羟甲基胞苷(产率19%,10步)亚磷酰胺衍生物的路线。
