An efficient synthesis of nucleotides via the phosphoramidite method using a triflic acid salt of an imidazole-related compound as a promoter.
N-Phenylimidazolium triflate and N-methylbenzimidazolium triflate, new imidazole-related compound/triflic acid-complex type of promoters in the phosphoramidite method, has been developed. These reagents are, particularly, useful for internucleotide-bond formation with lowly reactive reactants and have allowed an efficient, high-yield synthesis of oligodeoxyribonucleotides both in a solution phase and on a solid supports.
