2-Vinylpyridine has been successfully used for the protection of O6/N-1-lactam function in N2, 3′, 5′-protected 2′-deoxyguanosine followed by phosphonylation at 3′-end to yield the fully protected monomer for oligonucleotide synthesis, It is easier to introduce this group and then deprotect under milder conditions using 1, 8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene in anhyd. pyridine. Two oligonucleotides, viz. a hexamer, d(ACTGGC) and an octamer, d(GCCACTGT) have been synthesised in fairly good yields using this monomer on solid-phase without any side reactions.
