title: An improved procedure for derivatization of controlled-pore glass beads for solid-phase oligonucleotide synthesis.
abstract: A simplified and economical method for the attachment of 2'-deoxyribo, ribo and arabinonucleosides onto long-chain alkylamidopropanoic acid controlled-pore glass (LCAAP-CPG, P-3) is described. In this procedure, 5'-O-tritylated nucleosides are coupled directly to LCAAP-CPG in excellent yields using 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide (DEC) as coupling reagent. The conventional and time-consuming preparation of nucleoside-3'-O-succinates is no longer required.
