Abstrakt: The integration of fluorine atoms into biologically active organic compounds has proved to be a vital technique in small molecule drugs. This technique can substantially enhance crucial properties, including metabolic stability, lipophilicity, and bioavailability, often with a mere addition of a single fluorine atom or a trifluoromethyl group. Over the past few decades, this concept has also been applied in nucleic acid chemistry. A commonly employed 2'-OH substitution is the introduction of a 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoro (2'-F) group. The strong electronegativity of fluorine prompts the modified siRNA to readily adopt a C3'-endo conformation, resulting in significant advantages in terms of binding affinity. To enrich the toolbox of chemical modification of oligonucleotides, the replacement of the 2'-OH with the 2'-O-trifluoromethyl group has been developed in RNA analog synthesis. Oligodeoxynucleotides containing the 2'-O-trifluoromethyl group can greatly increase the thermal stability of DNA/RNA duplexes depending on the position and amount of the modification. Moreover, 2'-O-trifluoromethylated oligodeoxynucleotide also exhibited a slightly higher resistance to snake venom phosphodiesterase than the unmodified oligodeoxynucleotide. The 2'-O-trifluoromethylated oligonucleotides can emerge as a label to study RNA structure and function as well, or to develop DNA/RNA-based diagnostics. Hence, it is necessary to report an effective method for the synthesis, deprotection, purification, and characterization of oligonucleotides bearing a 2'-O-trifluoromethyl group. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
