Abstract

Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) have been widely used for inhibiting the gene expression in antisense or antigene methods, and the interstrand cross-linking (ICL) forming ODNs have been expected to ensure the inhibition by these methods. Previously, we reported a highly efficient and selective ICL reaction toward cytosine using the 2-amino-6-vinylpurine derivative under acidic conditions. In this Letter, we report the synthesis of ODN containing 6-amino-2-vinylpurine derivatives and evaluation of the cross-linking reactivity.
