Popis: | An efficient approach for the desulfuration of C5-substituted 2-thiouridines (R5S2U) bound in the RNA chain exclusively to 4-pyrimidinone nucleoside (R5H2U)-containing RNA products is proposed. This post-synthetic transformation avoids the preparation of a suitably protected H2U phosphoramidite, which otherwise would be necessary for solid-phase synthesis of the modified RNA. Optimization of the desulfuration, which included reaction stoichiometry, time and temperature, allowed to transform a set of ten R5S2U-RNAs into their R5H2U-RNA congeners in ca. 90% yield. |
