2'-5'-Linked oligoadenylic acid 5'-triphosphates (2-5A) having chain lengths of 2-4 have been synthesized by polymerization of 3'-O-(o-nitrobenzyl)-N-benzoyladenosine 5'-phosphate followed by 5'-triphosphorylation via the imidazolidates. A large scale preparation of 5'-O-phosphoryladenylyl-(2'-5')-adenylyl-(2'-5')-adenosine was performed by the phosphotriester method using 5'-O-monomethoxytrityl-3'-O-(o-nitrobenzyl)-N-benzoyladenosine 2'-O-p-chlorophenylphosphate and 5'-O-phosphorodianilido-3'-O-(o-nitrobenzyl)-N-benzoyladenosine 2'-O-p-chlorophenylphosphate as intermediates. The trimer was also triphosphorylated by the imidazolide method. CD spectra for 5'-mono and triphosphorylated 2'-5' adenylates were measured as well as their UV hypochromicities. This triester method was also applied to the synthesis of 3',5'-bisphosphorylated protected oligoadenylic acids with natural 3'-5' linkages which could be used for further condensations to yield 5'-phosphorylated polynucleotides.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007202 Indicators and Reagents Substances used for the detection, identification, analysis, etc. of chemical, biological, or pathologic processes or conditions. Indicators are substances that change in physical appearance, e.g., color, at or approaching the endpoint of a chemical titration, e.g., on the passage between acidity and alkalinity. Reagents are substances used for the detection or determination of another substance by chemical or microscopical means, especially analysis. Types of reagents are precipitants, solvents, oxidizers, reducers, fluxes, and colorimetric reagents.
