Application

Air- and moisture-tolerant, this (-)-PSI Reagent was developed in the Baran lab for stereocontrolled synthesis of phosphorothioate oligonucleotides. The enantiomer, (+)-PSI Reagent, is also available (cat# ALD00604).
The PSI Reagents open access to thiophosphate-based nucleotide molecules with therapeutic promise as demonstrated by the Baran lab in the preparation of pure stereoisomers of cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) and antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs).

Phosphorothioate nucleotides have emerged as powerful pharmacological substitutes of their native phosphodiester analogs with important translational applications in antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) therapeutics and cyclic dinucleotide (CDN) synthesis. Stereocontrolled installation of this chiral motif has long been hampered by the systemic
