Description

Ribonucleosides, deoxyribonucleosides, and their activated forms (e.g., 4-methyl-2-(methylsulfanyl)-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid) are all important intermediates for the synthesis of DNA and RNA. Ribonucleosides are the key building blocks for the synthesis of DNA. They can be converted to nucleosides by removal of the ribose moiety. Deoxyribonucleosides are synthesized from ribonucleosides by removal of the hydroxyl group from carbon 2' position of ribose. The activated forms (e.g., 4-methyl-2-(methylsulfanyl)-5-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid) are useful in phosphoramidite chemistry as they have a free amine group on one side and a free sulfonyl group on the other side that can be used to react with a growing oligo or polyphosph
