Participants

Reaction Steps

Compounds 3′,5′-O-bis-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-5-(2-isopropylbenzyl-oxy)methyl-2′-deoxyuridine (134 mg, 0.22 mmol) and (3′ or 5′)-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-5-(2-isopropylbenzyloxy)methyl-2′-deoxyuridine (98 mg, 0.19 mmol) were dissolved in THF (5 mL), and a solution of tetra-n-butylammonium fluoride trihydrate (323 mg, 1.05 mmol) in THF (2 mL) was added. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for one hour, then concentrated in vacuo and purified by silica gel column chromatography to give 5-(2-isopropylbenzyloxy)methyl-2′-deoxyuridine dU.n6 (108 mg, 67%).
