The acylation reactivity of RNA 2′-OH groups has proven broadly useful for labeling and mapping RNA. Here we perform kinetics studies to test the mechanisms governing this reaction, and we find strong steric and inductive effects modulating reactivity. The results shedlight on new strategies for improved conjugation and mapping.
