Synthesis of the anticodon hairpin (t)RNA(f)(Met) containing N-{[9-(β- D-ribofuranosyl)-9H-purin-6-yl]carbamoyl}-l-threonine (= N6-{{[(1S,2R)-1- carboxy-2-hydroxypropyl]amino}carbonyl}adenosine, t6A)

As part of our studies on the structure of yeast 1RNA(f)(Met), we investigated the incorporation of N-{[9-(β-D-ribofuranosyl)-9H-purin-6- yl]carbamoyl}-L-threonine (t6A) in the loop of a RNA 17-mer hairpin. The carboxylic function of the L-threonine moiety of t6A was protected with a 2- (4-nitrophenyl)ethyl group, and a (tert-butyl)dimethylsilyl group was used for the protection of its secondary OH group. The 2'-OH function of the standard ribonucleotide building blocks was protected with a [(triisopropylsilyl)oxy]methyl group. Removal of the base-labile protecting groups of the final RNA with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) and then with MeNH2 was done under carefully controlled conditions to prevent hydrolysis of the carbamate function, leading to loss of the L-threonine moiety.

Incorporation of 2-thiocytidine (s2C) into a DY647 labelled 17-mer RNA sequence corresponding to the anticodon stem loop of Staphylococcus aureus tRNAArg has been achieved by phosphoramidite chemistry. Key to the success was the use
