Tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TBDPS) was testified to be an appropriate orthogonal protecting group for novel 7-hydroxyl-functionalized 8-aza-7-deaza-2'-deoxyadenosine analogues. It was stable in partial and complete hydrogenation reactions used for the different linker preparation. The corresponding phosphoramidites and hydroxyl-functionalized oligodeoxynucleotides were synthesized and identified. The thermal effect of the hydroxyl group with different linkers on DNA duplexes was evaluated. It provided a feasible strategy for the preparation of hydroxyl-functionalized DNAs for the nucleic acid research.
