[Monomers containing 2'-o-alkoxymethyl groups as synthons for the synthesis of oligoribonucleotides by the phosphotriester method].

A general scheme for the synthesis of ribonucleotide monomers containing alkoxymethyl group in 2'-O-position for the solid-phase phosphotriester oligonucleotide synthesis using O-nucleophilic intramolecular catalysis has been developed. In particular, the monomers containing 2'-O-modifying 2-azidoethoxymethyl, propargyloxymethyl, or 3,4-cyclocarbonatebutoxymethyl groups has been prepared.

Synthesis of oligoribonucleotides containing 2'-O-methoxymethyl group by the phosphotriester method.

An effective procedure for the synthesis of ribonucleotide monomers containing a 2 '-О-methoxymethyl-modifying group was developed. These monomers were used for the synthesis of RNA fragments by the solid-phase phosphotriester method under O-nucleophilic intramolecular catalysis. The properties of 2 '-О-methoxymethyl-containing oligoribonucleotides were examined.

[Methoxymethyl and (p-nitrobenzyloxy)methyl groups in the synthesis of oligoribonucleotides by the phosphotriester method].

An efficient synthetic method for monomer ribonucleotide synthons containing 2'-O-methoxymethyl and 2'O-(p-nitrobenzyloxy)methyl groups used for oligonucleotide phosphotriester method with O-nucleophilic intramolecular catalysis at the stage of formation of internucleotide bond is developed. It is shown that synthons containing protecting 2'-O-(p-nitrobenzyloxy)methyl group may be used for automatic synthesis of phosphotriester oligoribonucleotides with high yields and synthons containing methoxymethyl group--to get 2'-O-modified oligonucleotides.

[Application of BODIPY-trimethylmelamine conjugate for DNA cross-linking in vitro].

Conjugate the fluorescent dye 4,4-difluoro-1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indatsen-8-propionic acid (BODIPY) and N2,N4,N6-trimethylmelamine was obtained. It was shown that this compound in the presence of formaldehyde generates covalent cross-links of DNA strands in vitro.
