Abstract
Oligodeoxyribonucleotides of different lengths have been prepared and linked to new stabilizing agents related to the coumarin family. These ODNSAs (OligoDeoxyriboNucleotides with Stabilizing Agents) were teste d against acridine connected oligomers of the same sequence. Melting t emperature experiments demonstrated that all ODNSAs formed complexes o f increased stability with complementary sequences of deoxyribo-20-mer . The order of stability of duplexes showed that the coumarins stabili ze the complexes more than the acridine and the chromone derivatives.
