To elucidate the role of the sugar moiety in the two natural nucleotides of the 3'-overhang region of small interfering RNA (siRNA), we synthesized siRNAs that incorporated two abasic nucleosides, 1-deoxy-D-ribofuranose (R(H)). We improved the method for preparing an O-protected

An efficient method for the N-2-deoxyribosylation of modified nucleobases by 2-deoxythioriboside donors is reported. In the presence of an in situ silylated nucleobase, thioglycosides can be activated with NIS/HOTf to give nucleosides in high yields and with good β-selectivity. By
