A 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group was used to protect the exocyclic amine on the modified guanine of N-(2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-2-(acetylamino)fluorene (dG-C-8-AAF) so that oligonucleotides containing a site-specific AAF adduct could be prepared. Reaction of Fmoc-Cl with dG-C-8-AAF gave N-[N-2-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl]-2-(acetylamino)fluorene (N2-Fmoc-dG- and N-[O-6-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl]-2-(acetylamino)fluorene (O-6-Fmoc-dG-C-8-AAF). The 5'-OH of N-2-FmoodG-C-8-AAF was protected using 4,4'-dimethoxrytrityl chloride to yield 5/-Dh4T-N-2-Fmoc-dG-C-8-AAF which was then reacted with 2-cyanoethyl N,N,N',N'-tetraisopropylphosphorodiamidite to obtain the corresponding phosphoramidite. The phosphoramidites of Fmoc-protected dA, dC and dG were also prepared similarly. The stability of Fmoc-protected C-8-AAF-modified deoxyguanosine was studied under different conditions to establish the utility of the prepared phosphoramidite in solid-phase DNA synthesis.
