title: Preparation of C8-amine and acetylamine adducts of 2'-deoxyguanosine suitably protected for DNA synthesis.
abstract: [reaction: see text] C8-Amine and acetylamine adducts of 2'-deoxyguanosine were synthesized. Our approach provides solutions for the coupling of aromatic amines to a protected 8-bromo-2'-deoxyguanosine derivative, for the selective acetylation of the coupled adduct at N(8) and for a protecting group scheme preserving the integrity of the base-labile N(8) acetyl group during DNA synthesis.
