Abstract

The 3′-phosphonate building block 1 of a platinated nucleoside has been synthesized for the first time. A platinated nucleotide was then incorporated with specificity into an oligonucleotide by using standard procedures of automated DNA synthesis. This method should make it possible to prepare defined platinated oligonucleotides, and should facilitate studies of the mechanisms by which platinum complexes are biologically active.
