Abstract: | Diastereomers of oligonucleotide ethyl phosphotriesters were separated by high-performance complementary (affinity) chromatography on a column with the immobilized complementary oligonucleotide. The elution buffer contained 0.18 M K2HPO4, pH 7.5, and 30% acetonitrile. The temperature of the separation was a few degrees lower than Tm of corresponding oligonucleotide complexes. The diastereomers separated completely or partially were: dGCC(Et)AAACA], dGCCA(Et)AACA], dGCAA(Et)ACA], dGCC(Et)A(Et)AACA], dGCC(Et)AA(Et)ACA], dGCCA(Et)A(Et)ACA], dGCC(Et)A(Et)A(Et)ACA]. |
