CAS 102691-36-1, Cat. No EN300-239576
Reagent for phosphitylation of DNA or RNA fragments

Cyanoethyl tetraisopropylphosphorodiamidite

2-Cyanoethyl tetraisopropylphosphorodiamidite is a phosphinylation reagent for DNA and RNA fragment synthesis that became very important in this field of study1. It is a colorless liquid that is shelf-stable and well-soluble in most organic solvents2. The reagent is stable for hydrolysis and offers an easy procedure that requires only an activator, such as EN300-77565, and no heating. After the reaction, which usually takes one night, the product can be easily purified by chromatography.

Synonyms: bis(N,N-diisopropylamino)-2-cyanoethoxyphosphine; (2-cyanoethoxy) bis(N,N-diisopropylamino)- phosphine, 2-cyanoethyl N,N,N,N -tetraisopropylphosphordiamidite
