Novel 2′-O-modified oligoribonucleotides with alkoxymethyl skeletons were synthesized, and their ability to hybridize complementary nucleic acids and their nuclease resistance were analyzed. The hybridization ability was improved by introducing electron-withdrawing groups and the increases in melting temperature (Tm value) was particularly high for chlorine-substituted compounds. Nuclease resistance of these 2′-O-alkoxymethylated oligomers was lower than expected, but cyano substitution resulted in a higher nuclease resistance than 2′-O-methylation.
