G. Walcher et W. Pfleiderer, NUCLEOTIDES .43. SYNTHESIS OF 2'-AMINO-2'-DEOXYARABINONUCLEOSIDE PHOSPHORAMIDITE BUILDING-BLOCKS, Helvetica Chimica Acta, 79(4), 1996, pp. 1067-1074
Chemical syntheses of 2'-amino-2'-deoxyarabinonucleosides of uracil, t
hymine, cytosine, adenine, and guanine and their conversion into suita
bly protected 3'-phosphoramidite building blocks 24-28 for oligonucleo
tide synthesis are described. The 2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethoxycarbonyl (npe
oc) group was used for protection of the aglycon and the 2'-amino func
tions.
