Abstract
We report the synthesis of a new phosphorylating reagent that is easily accessible and allows not only the chemical synthesis of 5′-phosphorylated and 5′-thiophosphorylated oligonucleotides but also the 5′-conjugation through a phosphoramidate linkage. 5′-Amino-linker and 5′-alkyne oligonucleotides were obtained and the latter was conjugated by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (click chemistry) with a galactosylated azide derivative to afford 5′-galactosyl oligonucleotide with high efficiency.
