Use of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry to monitor solid-phase synthesis of oligonucleotides.
MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry has been used to characterize solid-supported oligonucleotides containing natural and non-natural and non-nucleoside moieties and a variety of internucleosidic linkages including phosphate and phosphite triesters and H-phosphonate diesters. This technique was used to follow the reactions involved in oligonucleotide synthesis; this enabled direct control of the elongation and optimization of the coupling process.
