title: Synthesis of new non-nucleosidic ligand building blocks for solid-phase oligonucleotide assembly.
abstract: Synthesis of new non-nucleosidic building blocks that incorporate 2,2'-biquinoline is described. Starting from readily available bicinchoninic acid, the corresponding bifunctional monomeric reagents for solid-phase oligonucleotide synthesis, phosphoramidite and H-phosphonate, have been prepared. The compounds developed may be useful for the design of sequence-specific artificial nucleases.
