Ca. Brown et al., Synthesis and properties of some (2 '-5 ') linked dinucleoside monophosphates modified with 3 '-difluoromethylene groups, NUCLEOS NUC, 18(6-7), 1999, pp. 1249-1250
The title dimers were prepared to investigate conditions required for the s
ynthesis of 3'-difluoromethylene modified oligonucleotides on solid:support
. As a result a new synthetic cycle was developed that enabled the solid ph
ase synthesis of the modified oligonucleotides.
