Abstract
A new sulfurizing reagent is reported for the automated synthesis of p hosphorothioate analogues of oligonucleotides via the phosphoramidite method. Bis(O,O-diisopropoxy phosphinothioyl) disulfide (S-Tetra, 1) i s relatively inexpensive to prepare, easy to handle, and efficiently s ulfurizes internucleotide phosphites , thus allowing the practical syn thesis of oligo(nucleoside phosphorothioate)s with exceptionally high sulfur content.
