A synthesis has been developed providing nucleotide dimers comprising natural or unnatural nucleoside residues. A ribonucleoside 5-phosphorimidazolide is added to a nucleoside adsorbed on montmorillonite at neutral pH with the absence of protecting groups. Approximately 30% of the imidazolide is converted into each 2-5 dimer and 3-5 dimer with the rest hydrolyzed to the 5-monophosphate. Experiments with many combinations have suggested the limits to which this method may be applied, including heterochiral and chimeric syntheses. This greener chemistry has enabled the synthesis of dimers from activated nucleotides themselves, activated nucleotides with nucleosides, and activated nucleotides with nucleotide 5-monophosphates.

A synthesis of a pentaribonucleotide fragment constituting the residues 59-63 of 3'-terminus of E. coli tRNAIle, 5'-ApGpUpCpC-3', has been carried out using a new, easily accessible and achiral 2'-ketal protecting group. The new 2'-ketal group has an additional advantage in that it is easily functionalized to the diamide with aqueous ammonia in the penultimate step of deblocking of fully protected oligoribonucleotides. Such a functionalization of the 2'-ketal group at the penultimate step of deblocking of the fully protected tRNA molecule enhances its relative rate of removal under an acidic condition with a minimum of damage of the target tRNA molecule.
