Abstract

A solid phase technique for the preparation of antisense oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) is described featuring 5′‐end conjugated 4‐[(1,4,8,11‐tetraazacyclotet‐radec‐1‐yl)‐methyl]benzoic acid (CPTA). Using Fmoc‐protected CPTA–C6 amidite, CPTA was conjugated to ODNs at the end of an automated DNA synthesis. To illustrate successful conjugations, the CPTA–ODNs were labeled with ^99m^Tc using the stannous‐chloride reduction method. The resulting ^99m^Tc complexes showed differences of stability between CPTA‐conjugated and CPTA‐unconjugated as well as 3′‐protected and 3′‐unprotected ODNs. Propane‐1,3‐diol 3′‐modification enhanced efficiently the stability of ^99m^Tc labeled ODN against exonuclease degradation. Fmoc~3~CPTA‐C6 amidite turned out to be a versatile ligand for radiometal complexation at the 5′‐end. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract The flavin heterocycle is the key component in the important and ubiquitous FMN and FAD coenzymes. As such, the flavin is able to catalyse oxygen‐transfer reactions in many monooxygenases, as well as one‐ and two‐electron transfer processes. We recently inserted the flavin heterocycle i
