Abstract
To expand the triplex recognition repertoire of Nucleic Acids, novel nucleobases that recognize thymine in a T-A base pair are still required. A novel conformationally constrained PNA-monomer (II) capable of binding T in a triplex motif was designed and synthesized in 7 steps starting from commercially available dimethyl 2-oxoglutarate.
