  1. Abstract:

    An efficient and economical method for the solid-phase synthesis of oligodeoxyribonucleotides and their phosphorothioate analogues is described. The method entails the use of the 4-oxopentyl group for phosphate thiophosphate protection. Post-synthesis removal of the protecting group is easily and rapidly achieved under mild conditions at ambient temperature using either pressurized gaseous amines or concentrated ammonium hydroxide.
