Boc/'Z-protected PNA oligomers were synthesised on solid phase. The use of the allylic HYCRON resin allowed for the application of both Boc-and Fmoc-protecting groups. Highest yields were obtained when the monomeric building block was synthesised on solid phase rather than loaded as preformed unit.

โฆ Synopsis
Peptide nucleic acids (PNA) were synthesized by a modified Merrifield method using several improvements. Activation by O-[benzotriazol-1-yl]-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate in combination with in situ neutralization of the resin allowed efficient coupling of all four Boc-protected PNA monomers within 30 min. HPLC analysis of the crude product obtained from a fully automated synthesis of the model PNA oligomer H-CGGACTAAGTCCATTGC-Gly-NH2, indicated an average yield per synthetic cycle of 97.1%. N1-benzyloxycarbonyl-N6(3)-methylimidazole triflate substantially outperformed acetic anhydride as a capping reagent. The resin-bound PNAs were successfully cleaved by the 'low-high' trifluoromethanesulphonic acid procedure.
