Abstract
Efficient protocols for oxidative coupling of dinucleoside H-phosphonate and dinucleoside Hphosphonothioate diesters with 6-aminohexan-1-ol, hexane-1,6-diamine, and hexane-1,6-diol, promoted by iodine were developed. In the instance of coupling with O-nucleophiles, the presence of t-butyldiphenylsilyl chloride and excess of iodine during oxidative coupling were found to have beneficial effect for these reactions in terms of rates and purity of the formed products.
Keywords: h-phosphonates, h-phosphonothioates, binucleophiles, oxidative coupling
