  • Publication number: 20110077389
    Abstract: Novel CE-phosphoramidites and CPG reagents have been synthesized from a serinol backbone. These reagents are useful to introduce functional groups or directly label oligonucleotides. The versatile serinol scaffold allows for labeling at any position (5? or 3? termini, or any internal position) during automated DNA synthesis. Multiple labels or functional groups can be achieved by repetitive coupling cycles. Optimal spacer arms and protected label moieties have been specially designed. Further, the natural 3-carbon atom internucleotide phosphate distance is retained when inserted internally.

  • Patent number: 7893271
    Abstract: This invention relates to benzimidazole carbamates and (thio)carbamates corresponding to Formula I: Here, X1 and X2 are independently O or S, wherein at least one of X1 and X2 is O; Y1 and Y2 are independently O or S, wherein at least one of Y1 and Y2 is O; R1 is alkyl having from 1-4 carbon atoms; R2, R3, and R4 are independently hydrogen or a cation; R5 and R6 are independently hydrogen, halogen, alkyl (having from 1-8 carbon atoms), —OR7, —SR8, —CO—R9, —OSO2—Ar, or —S(O)R10; R7 is alkyl having from 1-8 carbon atoms; R8 is alkyl (having from 1-8 carbon atoms) or aryl; R9 is alkyl (having from 1-8 carbon atoms), cycloalkyl (having from 3-6 carbon atoms), or aryl; Ar is aryl; and R10 is alkyl (having from 1-8 carbon atoms) or aryl. The compounds generally are soluble and stable in water, and have antiparasitic (particularly anthelmintic) activity in vivo that is comparable to known water-insoluble benzimidazole carbamates (e.g., albendazole and fenbendazole).
