Abstract
An improved synthesis of the deoxy-2-fluoroinosine nucleoside is descr ibed, that makes use of mild fluorination (polyvinylpyridinium polyhyd rogenfluoride) and O-silyl deprotection (triethylamine trihydrofluorid e) reactions. The derived dimethoxytrityl-2-fluoroinosine-3'-phosphora midite was incorporated into 10-, 15- and 20- mer oligonucleotides con taining up to 7 non-natural bases.
