The selective synthesis of metallanucleosides and metallanucleotides: a new tool for the functionalization of nucleic acids.
2012
Nucleobases team up: the efficient and selective preparation of purine-derived metallanucleosides, metallanucleotides, and metalladinucleotides having M-C bonds (M=Ir(III), Rh(III)) is reported for the first time. The results presented may be applied to the synthesis of functionalized nucleic acids, or DNA/RNA-modified segments.
On the Use of Metal Purine Derivatives (M=Ir, Rh) for the Selective Labeling of Nucleosides and Nucleotides
2014
The reactions of neutral or cationic IrIII and RhIII derivatives of phenyl purine nucleobases with unsymmetrical alkynes produce new metallacycles in a predictable manner, which allows for the incorporation of either photoactive (anthracene or pyrene) or electroactive (ferrocene) labels in the nucleotide or nucleoside moiety. The reported methodology (metalation of the purine derivative and subsequent marker insertion) could be used for the postfunctionalization and unambiguous labeling of oligonucleotides.
