• followed by chemical or enzymatic installation of the 5′-cap. The general principle of solid-phase RNA synthesis is beyond the scope of this review and has been described in excellent review articles [101][102][103][104]. The longest RNA synthesized via solid-phase chemistry to date has a length of 170

• , 76344 Eggenstein-Leopoldshafen, Germany 10.3762/bjoc.13.16 Abstract The arabino-configured analog of uridine with a propargyl group at the 2’-position was synthesized and incorporated into DNA by solid-phase chemistry. The fluorescence quantum yields of DNA strands that were postsynthetically modified

However, the concept of solid-phase chemistry is now used in a wider sense to cover alternative solid-phase reagent chemistry. In these approaches, substrates are chemically bound to the surface of the solid
