Synthesis and DNA Incorporation of an Ethynyl-Bridged Cytosine C-Nucleoside as Guanosine Surrogate
摘要:
As a guanosine mimic that lacks the preference for syn or anti conformation a cytosine C-nucleoside was synthesized connecting the nucleobase at the anomeric center by an ethynyl linker. The key step was a Sonogashira cross coupling of 5-iodocytosine with 1 '-ethynyl-2 '-deoxyribose. The new C-nucleoside incorporated into G/C-alternating oligonucleotides emerged as guanosine substitute, however, with reduced duplex stability. B-Form DNA was strongly stabilized by the new surrogate even in typically Z-DNA forming sequences and in Z-form inducing environment.
