Preparation and Characterization of Oligonucleotides of D- and L-2’ Deoxyuridine

Abstract
The synthesis of oligonucleotides of 2''-deoxyuridine containing the natural D-2''-deoxyribose and the unnatural L-2''-deoxyribose is described. Units up to the 18-mer were made via a modified triester procedure and characterized by high performance liquid chromatography.
