The adduct __O__^6^‐carboxymethyl‐2′‐deoxyguanosine (O^6^CMdG) is of importance as it has been previously linked to high red meat diet in humans, and as yet, a liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry (LC‐MS) method has not been developed due to lack of appropriate standards.

✦ Synopsis
Acrolein, a known mutagen, undergoes reaction in vitro under physiological conditions with both 2(')-deoxyguanosine and native DNA to give rise to exocyclic adducts of the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropyrimido[1,2-a]purine-10(3H)-one class having an hydroxy group at either the 6 or the 8 position. Previously we have shown that the 8-hydroxy derivative in a bacterial system has very low mutagenicity probably because in double-stranded DNA this residue exists in the open-chain aldehydic form [N(2)-(3-oxopropyl)-2(')-deoxyguanosine] (3). To continue our investigation in this area, we needed ample supplies of the 6-hydroxy isomers. This current paper describes high-yield simple methods for the synthesis in bulk of the 6-hydroxy adduct 1 and its incorporation into DNA oligomers. The basic methods for the synthesis of the adduct 1, involve 1-substitution of dG derivatives with a 3-butenyl group, dihydroxylation of the olefin with osmium tetroxide and N-methylmorpholine N-oxide, then diol cleavage with periodate ion after incorporation of the 1-(3,4-diacetoxybutyl)-2(')-deoxyguanosine into oligomeric DNA.
