Abstract

The synthesis and biochemical utility of modified oligonucleotides containing diphosphodiester internucleotide linkages. The synthesis of these compounds was carried out using diphosphitylating reagents. Oligonucleotides containing diphosphate diester bridges wherein said oligonucleotides are synthesized via a solid-phase synthesis strategy to form modified oligonucleotides. Diphosphitylating, triphosphitylating, tetraphosphitylating, β-triphosphitylating, bifunctional diphosphitylating, bifunctional triphosphitylating, and bifunctional tetraphosphitylating reagents wherein, the phosphorus atoms are linked together through oxygen, sulfur, amino, or methylene groups and/or are substituted with chlorine, diisopropylamine and cyanoethoxy groups.

Claims (10)

1. A polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent wherein, said polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent includes a diphosphite or triphosophite that includes phosphorus atoms that are linked together through known phosphorus atom linking agents, namely oxygen, amino, sulfur, or methylene groups and/or the phosphorus atoms are substituted with another protective agent for protecting the reagent, namely any of chlorine, diisopropylamine and cyanoethoxy groups.

2. A polymer-bound linker of p-acetoxy benzyl alcohol and p-acetoxy benzaldehyde attached directly or indirectly to a phosphitylating reagent including a diphosphite or triphosphite that includes phosphorus atoms that are linked together through known phosphorus atom linking agents, namely any of oxygen, sulfur, amino, or methylene groups and/or are substituted with another protective agent for protecting the diphosphite or triphosphite, namely chlorine, diisopropylamine and cyanoethoxy groups.

3. The phosphitylating reagent of claim 2 , wherein one or more bridging oxygens between phosphorus atoms are replaced with NH, S, or CH 2 .

4. The polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent of claim 1 , wherein the polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent is capable of being modified to form nucleoside and carbohydrate diphosphates, triphosphates, tetraphosphates, β-triphosphates, diphosphodiesters, triphosphodiesters, tetraphosphodiesters and/or starting materials for the synthesis of other compounds.

5. The polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent of claim 1 , wherein the polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent is capable of being used for the synthesis of nucleoside and carbohydrate diphosphates, triphosphates, tetraphosphates, β-triphosphates, diphosphodiesters, triphosphodiesters, and tetraphosphodiesters.

6. A polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent wherein, said polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent includes a diphosphite, triphosophite, tetraphosphite, or β-triphosphite that includes phosphorus atoms that are linked together through known phosphorus atom linking agents, namely oxygen, amino, sulfur, or methylene groups and/or the phosphorus atoms are substituted with another protective agent for protecting the reagent, namely any of chlorine, diisopropylamine and cyanoethoxy groups.

7. The polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent of claim 6 , wherein the polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent is capable of being modified to form nucleoside and carbohydrate diphosphates, triphosphates, tetraphosphates, β-triphosphates, diphosphodiesters, triphosphodiesters, tetraphosphodiesters and/or starting materials for the synthesis of other compounds.

8. The polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent of claim 6 , wherein the polymer-bound phosphitylating reagent is capable of being used for the synthesis of nucleoside and carbohydrate diphosphates, triphosphates, tetraphosphates, β-triphosphates, diphosphodiesters, triphosphodiesters, and tetraphosphodiesters.

9. A polymer-bound linker of p-acetoxy benzyl alcohol and p-acetoxy benzaldehyde attached directly or indirectly to a phosphitylating reagent including a diphosphite, triphosphate, tetraphosphite, or β-triphosphite, that includes phosphorus atoms that are linked together through known phosphorus atom linking agents, namely any of oxygen, sulfur, amino, or methylene groups and/or are substituted with another protective agent for protecting the diphosphite, triphosphite, tetraphosphite, or β-triphosphite namely chlorine, diisopropylamine and cyanoethoxy groups.

10. The phosphitylating reagent of claim 9 , wherein one or more bridging oxygens between phosphorus atoms are replaced with NH, S, or CH 2 .
