Abstract

A phosphoramidite building block of thymine glycol, a major oxidative base damage in DNA, was synthesized in four steps from protected thymidine. The two hydroxyl functions of the oxidized base were protected with the tert-butyldimethylsilyl group. Using this building block, oligonucleotides containing this damage were synthesized.
