Microwave Assisted “Click” Chemistry for the Synthesis of Multiple Labeled-Carbohydrate Oligonucleotides on Solid Support

Abstract

A versatile approach has been developed for the multiple labeling of oligonucleotides. First, three linkers as a H-phosphonate monoester derivative were condensed on a solid-supported T12 to introduce H-phosphonate diester linkages which were oxidized in the presence of propargylamine. Second, three galactosyl azide derivatives were conjugated to the solid-supported three-alkyne-modified T12 by a 1,3-cycloaddition so-called "click chemistry" in the presence of Cu(I) assisted by microwaves.
