Facile and stereoselective synthesis of 2'-5'-oligothioadenylate by UO2(2+) ion catalyst

Nucleic Acids Symp Ser. 1992:(27):105-6.

Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of 2'-5'-oligothioadenylate by UO2(2+) ion catalyst are described. The polymerization of imidazole-activated thioadenylate or thioinosylate yielded oligomers containing mainly 2'-5'-internucleotidyl blond and Rp configuration at phosphorous atom.
