DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0066] The present invention provides chemical preparations of oligonucleotides, chemical entities useful in such preparation, and processes for such preparation. More specifically, the invention provides novel non-nucleosidic phosphoramidite building blocks and solid supports for incorporation of a variety of useful ligands to natural oligonucleotides and their phosphorothioate analogs in the course of synthesis on solid phase. The phosphoramidite building blocks and solid supports according to the invention are highly efficient. These compounds are inexpensive to manufacture. They are stable in the solid state or in solution over an extensive period of time. The attachment thereof to oligonucleotides does not create any new chiral centers and hence does not complicate the isolation of the ligand-modified oligonucleotides. Said oligonucleotides do not suffer from any unwanted side reactions. The patents and publications cited in this specification are well-known to those skilled in the art and are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
[0067] Upon examination of the data disclosed in the prior art, skilled artisans will appreciate the fact that, in order to eliminate side reactions in modified oligonucleotides, an optimal structure for preparation of such oligonucleotides should be derived from 1,3-propanediol or a longer a,w-alkanediol and that a functional group to serve as an attachment point for ligands of interest should be at least 4carbons away from any of the hydroxy groups. Further, to avoid the formation of new chiral centers in such modified oligonucleotides, the optimal linker should not possess any chiral or pro-chiral centers. Phosphoramidite building blocks and solid supports derived from such linkers are described herein in accordance with the present invention.
[0068] Thus, in a first aspect, the invention provides novel compounds which may serve as building blocks for the preparation of oligomeric compounds, analogs of natural oligonucleotides, wherein an artificial moiety is attached at the 5′-or at the 3′-termini, or in the middle of the chain, or in any combination thereof according to Formula I:

[0148] The obtained compounds 5a-5k and 6a-6k were selectively protected at one of the hydroxy groups by treating with either DMT-Cl or TMT-Cl in pyridine to give compounds 7a-7k, 8a-8k, 9a-9k, and 10a-10k. These were directly converted to phosphoramidite building blocks 11a-11k, 12a-12k, 13a-13k, and 14a-14k by the action of 2-cyanoethyl N,N,N′N′-tetraisopropylphosphorodiamidite in the presence of 1H-tetrazole and, by treating with succinic anhydride in pyridine, to hemisuccinate esters 15a-15k, 16a-16k, 17a-17k, and 18a-18k. The hemisuccinate esters were, upon activation with TBTU, attached to solid phase materials, aminopropyl-derivatized CPG and aminomethylated 1V11.sup.3P S to give solid supports 19a-19k, 20a-20k, 21a-21k, and 22a-22k for the 3′-derivatization of synthetic oligonucleotides.
[0149] In order to obtain phosphoramidite building blocks and solid supports with an extended side chain, Fmoc protecting group in compounds 7a, 8a, 9a, and 10a was removed first by treatment with piperidine in methanol to give compounds 23, 24, 25, and 26followed by the selective acylation of the latter compounds at their amino group with the respective carboxylic acids upon activation of the latter with HOBT and EDC-HCl (
[0150] To obtain phosphoramidite building blocks and solid supports derivatized with Dabsyl group at the side chain, compounds 19-22were first sulfonylated at the amino function by treating with Dabsyl chloride in the presence of TEA (
[0151] To afford synthetic tools for introduction of D-biotin into synthetic oligonucleotides, phosphoramidite building blocks 63and 64and solid supports 67, 68were synthesized (
[0152] The utility of a ureido linkage for construction of non-nucleosidic phosphoramidites and solid supports was demonstrated by synthesis of N-acetyl-D-galactosamine-derivatized phosphoramidite building blocks 71and 76and solid supports 74and 78as disclosed in

[0153] The non-nucleosidic phosphoramidite building blocks and solid supports synthesized as disclosed above were tested in preparation of oligonucleotide conjugates derivatized at the 5′-or the 3′-termini, respectively. The following oligonucleotides wherein X stands for a non-nucleosidic moiety were synthesized:

[0154] The final cleavage and deprotection of nucleic bases was carried out by treating the solid support-bound, 5′-DMT or 5′-TMT-protected oligonucleotides under the following conditions widely accepted in the industry: [0155] 1.Conc. aqueous ammonium hydroxide for 8h at 65° C. [0156] 2.Treatment with a mixture of diethylamine and acetonitrile (5:1) for 3min followed by acetonitrile wash and final deprotection with conc. aqueous ammonium hydroxide for 8h at 65° C. [0157] 3.A mixture of conc. aqueous ammonium hydroxide with 40% aqueous methylamine (1:1) for 15min at 65° C. [0158] 4.Treatment with a mixture of diethylamine and acetonitrile (5:1) for 3min followed by acetonitrile wash and final deprotection with a solution of ethylenediamine in toluene (1:1) for 2h at room temperature, acetonitrile wash, and eltion of the product with water. [0159] 5. 50mM K2CO3in methanol at room temperature.
[0160] Crude reaction mixtures were analyzed by reverse-phase HPLC and by ES MS to demonstrate that the non-nucleosidic moieties were stable under all tested conditions except for 50mM K.sub.2CO.sub.3in methanol.
[0161] Accordingly, the efficient preparation of analogs of oligonucleotides modified with ligands of practical interest and their phosphorothioate analogs using the novel non-nucleosidic solid supports and phosphoramidite building blocks described herein has been demonstrated. Said solid supports and phosphoramidite building blocks can be readily synthesized by artisans possessing ordinary skills. Conveniently, oligonucleotide analogs synthesized using said solid supports and phosphoramidite building blocks are stable under the most common basic deprotection conditions and do not possess any additional stereoheterogeneity.
