Hayashi, Junsuke published the artcileSyntheses of prodrug-type 2′-O-methyldithiomethyl oligonucleotides modified at natural four nucleoside residues and their conversions into natural 2′-hydroxy oligonucleotides under reducing condition, Name: N-(9-((6aR,8R,9R,9aS)-9-Hydroxy-2,2,4,4-tetraisopropyltetrahydro-6H-furo[3,2-f][1,3,5,2,4]trioxadisilocin-8-yl)-6-oxo-6,9-dihydro-1H-purin-2-yl)isobutyramide, the publication is Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry (2018), 26(22), 5838-5844, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.
We previously reported that reducing-environment-responsive prodrug-type small interfering RNA (siRNA) bearing 2′-O-methyldithiomethyl (2′-O-MDTM) uridine exhibits efficient knockdown activity and nuclease resistance. In this report, we describe the preparation of 2′-O-MDTM oligonucleotides modified not only at uridine but also at adenosine, guanosine and cytidine residues by post-synthetic modification. Precursor oligonucleotides bearing 2′-O-(2,4,6-trimethoxybenzylthiomethyl) (2′-O-TMBTM) adenosine, guanosine, and cytidine were reacted with dimethyl(methylthio)sulfonium tetrafluoroborate to form 2′-O-MDTM oligonucleotides in the same manner as the oligonucleotide bearing 2′-O-TMBTM uridine. Furthermore, the oligonucleotides bearing 2′-O-MDTM adenosine, guanosine, and cytidine were efficiently converted into corresponding natural 2′-hydroxy oligonucleotides under the cytosol-mimetic reducing condition.
