Modified inorganic polymers represented by the formula
wherein Ⓟ is an inorganic polymer linked to the 3' or 5' -0- of the nucleoside through a base hydrolyzable covalent bond; R is H or a blocking group; R is a hydrocarbyl radical containing up to 10 carbons; each B is a nucleoside or deoxynucleoside base; and each A is H or OR. Said inorganic polymers are chemically bound to a nucleoside. The chemical bonding of the nucleoside moiety to the inorganic polymer is by means of reactive groups on the polymer which react with reactive groups of the nucleoside molecule. Such modified inorganic polymer supports are useful in the stepwise addition of nucleosides or oligonucleotides to the original nucleoside moiety of the support by a series of process steps. The starting nucleoside which is blocked in either the 3'- or the 5'-OH and the nucleoside is coupled through the unblocked hydroxy group to the polymer support bythe coupling agent. Furthermore an automated apparatus for producing a modified silica gel which is an example of a modified inorganic polymer is shown.
