α-LNA (locked nucleic acid with α-D-configuration): Synthesis and selective parallel recognition of RNA

α-LNA is presented as a stereoisomer of LNA (locked nucleic acid) with α-D-configuration. Three different approaches towards the thymine α-LNA monomer as well as the 5-methylcytosine α-LNA monomer are presented. Different α-LNA sequences have been synthesised and their hybridisation with complementary DNA and RNA has been evaluated by means of thermal stability experiments and circular dichroism spectroscopy. In a mixed pyrimidine sequence, α-LNA displays unprecedented parallel-stranded and selective RNA binding. Furthermore, a remarkable selectivity for hybridisation with RNA over DNA is indicated.

α-LNA, locked nucleic acid with α-D-configuration

The bicyclic thymine monomer of α-LNA (αT(L)) was efficiently synthesised and used in the synthesis of α-LNA sequences: incorporation of single αT(L)-monomers in α-configured oligothymidylates destabilises the affinity towards both complementary DNA and R

Synthesis and chemoselective activation of phenyl 3,5-di-O-benzyl-2-O,4-C-methylene-1-thio-β-D-ribofuranoside: A key synthon towards α-LNA

A bicyclic thiofuranoside (phenyl 3,5-di-O-benzyl-2-O,4-C-methylene-β-D-ribofuranoside) was efficiently synthesized and introduced as the key synthon in a method for convergent synthesis of α- and β-LNA nucleosides; acid-induced ring-opening reactions of
