5''-O-[Bis(4-Methoxyphenyl)phenylmethyl]-thymidine 3''-[2-cyanoethyl N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)phosphoramidite] is a nucleotide and reactant used in the solid-phase synthesis of phosphorothioate oligonucleotides, and in the synthesis of lipophilic 5''-phosphoramidate derivatives of DNA and RNA oligonucleotides.
5'-O-DMT-Thymidine-CE Phosphoramidite is also known as DMT-dT Phosphoramidite. The IUPAC Name of this compound is (2R,3S,5R)-2-((bis(4-methoxyphenyl)(phenyl)methoxy)methyl)-5-(5-methyl-2,4-dioxo-3,4-dihydropyrimidin-1(2H)-yl)tetrahydrofuran-3-yl (2-cyanoethyl) diisopropylphosphoramidite. It allows for the introduction of thymidine units into oligonucleotides. Also, it has been used in various applications, including the synthesis of natural and unnatural DNA and RNA strands.
