Routes for the preparation of 2'-silyl protected phosphoramidites of the modified nucleosides O2-methyluridine and O4-methyluridine are described. Methodology for the site-specific incorporation of these phosphonamidetes into a 25 nucleotide long oligoribonucleotide sequence by solid-phase synthesis is reported.

O4-Methyluridine, O2-methyluridine and 4Huridine phosphoramidites were prepared with 2'-O-silyl protection.The methyl modified pyrimidines were synthesised from uridine via the triazolide (O4-methyl) or 2,5'-cyclo derivative (O2-methyl).An improved synthesis of protected 4-thiouridine was also performed.
