Notes:
To provide suitable monomers for a study designed to synthesize copolymers containing alternating sequences of nucleic acid base pairs, the following electron-donor monomers were synthesized: 9-(2-vinyloxyethyl)adenine, 1-(2-vinyloxyethyl)thymine, and 1-(2-vinyloxyethyl)-cytosine. The following electron-acceptor monomers were also synthesized: 9-(2-maleimidoethyl)adenine, 1-(2-maleimidoethyl)thymine, and 1-(2-maleimidoethyl)cytosine. The methods of synthesis are described along with their characterization by the usual methods, and their physical properties are reported. A variety of novel compounds were required as intermediates in the above identified syntheses. This paper also includes characterization of these compounds and a report of their physical properties.
