The synthesis of an N-protected derivative of 2-amino-2''-deoxyadenosine (dA'') from 2''-deoxyguanosine is reported. The syntheses of several oligodeoxynucleotides containing this modified nucleoside are described, together with physical characterization via melting studies and CD [circular dichroism] conformational analysis. As expected, the 2-amino group is seen to add to the duplex stability. Although the sequence d(TA'')3 was found to undergo a salt-induced conformational transition, mixed sequences such as d(CGTA''CG) did not display this behavior. All guanine residues present in these sequences were O6 protected, either with the cyanoethyl group or the 4-nitrophenylethyl group, to eliminate guanine degradation during phosphorylation and condensation reactions. Procedures for the introduction and removal of these O6 protecting groups are described.
