The configuration of the duplex stabilising 3′-C-P-N-5′ ethyl phosphonamidate nucleic acid backbone modification has been identified as Rp following the preparation of cyclic nucleoside analogues and NOE studies. Complimentary routes for formation of the key phosphonamidate nitrogen to phosphorus bond from stereochemically defined H-phosphinate intermediates, involving both a retention and inversion at the phosphorus centre, have been identified.
