DMTr-2'-O-EOE-5-Me-rC(Bz)-3'-CE-Phosphoramidite is utilized in oligonucleotide synthesis and contains a 2'-O-ethoxyethyl (EOE) group at the 2'-position of 5-methylcytidine (5-Me-rC), along with benzoyl (Bz) protection on the cytosine amino group. Additionally, it features a cyanoethyl (CE) group at the 3'-end to facilitate efficient coupling reactions during solid-phase synthesis. It is employed to introduce modified 5-methylcytidine residues into RNA sequences, enhancing stability and target specificity.
