The stereoselective synthesis of 2′-α-C-branched nucleosides by a radical addition reaction is described. These new nucleosides were incorporated into oligodeoxyribonucleotides. Measurement of melting temperatures (Tm) of DNA/RNA duplexes and the nuclease resistance of these oligoribodeoxynucleotides are presented.
