Description

Tributylammonium pyrophosphate is a phosphorylating reagent used in the synthesis of phosphorylated nucleosides, particularly nucleoside triphosphates used as building blocks for the synthesis of DNA, RNA and sugar nucleotides; as well as a source of cellular energy. Nucleoside triphosphates are typically synthesised by treating free nucleosides with phosphorus oxychloride, then adding tributylammonium pyrophosphate to the reaction intermediate, where the lipophilic tributylammonium salt enhances solubility in organic solvents. Additionally, tributylammonium pyrophosphate was used in the preparation of structurally complex dinucleotide-5’-triphosphates.
