A highly efficient synthetic method for incorporation of the deoxyribonolactone lesion into oligonucleotides was developed using the photochemical properties of 7-nitroindole.

On the basis of molecular modeling studies, the 7-nitroindole nucleoside 1 was selected as a suitable photochemical precursor for photochemical generation of the C1′ deoxyribosyl radical under irradiation, which led to 2′-deoxyribonolactone. The nitroindole nucleoside derivatives 1a and 1b were prepared and their conformation was determined by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. The photoreaction of these nucleosides gave the corresponding deoxyribonolactone derivatives efficiently, with release of 7-nitrosoindole. This reaction was successfully applied to synthesis of oligonucleotides containing the deoxyribonolactone lesion.
