Specifications
Pharmadite amidites are characterized by their
exceptional purity and well-defined impurity profile.
In particular, they are essentially free from
contaminants which interfere in coupling reactions,
such as other nucleosidic or non-nucleosidic
phosphoramidites (P(III)-contaminants).

Methods

1. Use anhydrous acetonitrile (water content ≤30


ppm) as diluent. It is important to maintain
anhydrous conditions while dissolving RNA
phosphoramidites in acetonitrile.

2. For use on Expedite instruments, add 10 ml of


acetonitrile to 0.5 g 2'O-Methyl RNA monomer,
to obtain a concentration of 50 mg/ml. For use
on ABI instruments, add 5 ml acetonitrile to
0.5 g 2'O-Methyl RNA monomer, to obtain a
concentration of 100 mg/ml.

3. Gently swirl the vial until the powder is


completely dissolved.

4. Attach the dissolved phosphoramidite


to the appropriate position on the synthesizer.
Ensure that the delivery line to the synthesis
chamber is sufficiently primed.

5. Enter the sequence of the 2'O-Methyl


oligoribonucleotide you wish to synthesize. A
minimum coupling time of 6 minutes is
recommended for 2'O-Methyl RNA
phosphoramidites.

6. Proceed as you would with a standard DNA


oligonucleotide synthesis. Depending on your
intended further use of the oligomer, you can
choose either DMT-On or DMT-Off
procedures. The coupling efficiency of 2'O-
Methyl RNA monomers may be determined
by standard dimethoxytrityl cation assays.

7. Cleave from the support and deprotect the


2'O-Methyl oligoribonucleotide with
concentrated ammonia at 55°C for 8 hours.
Alternatively, AMA reagent (concentrated
ammonia/40% aqueous methylamine 1/1, v/v)
can be employed for 10 minutes at 65°C.

8. The 2'O-Methyl oligoribonucleotide is now


ready for further processing, such as
desalting or purification with RP-HPLC, AX-
HPLC or gel-based methods. Purification of
fully-modified 2'O-Methyl RNA
oligonucleotides is simpler than in case of
RNA, as no special precautions are required
to prevent nucleolytic degradation

CPG combines the advanced features of
cleavage and deprotection under mild
conditions, and maintenance of the integrity of
the 3'-modification with high synthesis yields.

Key Features of 3'-Amine


Oligonucleotides
• Selective conjugation to reporter groups,
purification handles or other modifiers

• 3'-end attachment to electrophilic surfaces

• Offers protection against exonucleolytic


degradation

These features enable 3'-Amine oligonucleotides to


be used in applications such as 3'-labeling with
base sensitive dyes; 3'-biotin modifications; dual-
labeled probes (eg TaqMan probes and Molecular
beacons); and microarray spotting.

Key Features of Amino-ON CPG


• Introduces a primary amino group attached to a
C6-linker

• Fully compatible with standard phospho-


ramidite reagents and synthesis conditions

• Can be used with DNA, RNA and Locked Nucleic


Acid® (LNA); 5'-oligonucleotide modifications
such as fluorescein or biotin; and with the
synthesis of thioated DNA oligonucleotides

• Compatible with dG(dmf) fast deprotection


chemistry: the oligonucleotide can be cleaved
from the support and deprotected in con-

proceed with nearly quantitative yields in state-of-
the-art oligonucleotide synthesis, the coupling
reactions, although high yielding, determine the
overall efficiency of the process. Coupling yields are
driven by a variety of factors, including amidite and
solid support quality, water content of the coupling
medium and the choice of activator molecule
employed. An ideal activator should promote the
coupling of standard DNA amidites as well as the
coupling of more sterically demanding amidites
(e.g. 2'O-TBDMS-RNA amidites) in a highly efficient
manner. The activator should have excellent
solubility in the coupling medium (i.e., acetonitrile)
in order to avoid undesired precipitation or
crystallization, should not be hygroscopic, should
be safe to handle and should not lead to side
reactions in oligonucleotide synthesis. These
desired properties can be attributed to a new
powerful activator molecule which gives superior
performance compared to the other commercial
activators such as 5-ethylthio-1H-tetrazole (ETT),
