Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 22
Claim 1
Independent Claim 172 words
A compound represented by one of the formulae: ##STR4## wherein B is a nucleoside or deoxynucleoside base; A is H, OH or OR 2 in which R 2 is a blocking group; R is a blocking group; R 1 is a hydrocarbyl radical containing up to about 10 carbon atoms; and X is NR 2 R 3 , wherein R 2 and R 3 taken separately each represent alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl and cycloalkylalkyl containing up to 10 carbon atoms; R 2 and R 3 when taken together form an alkylene chain containing up to 5 carbon atoms in the principal chain and a total of up to 10 carbon atoms with both terminal valence bonds of said chain being attached to the nitrogen atom to which R 2 and R 3 are attached; and R 2 and R 3 when taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a saturated nitrogen heterocycle including at least one additional heteroatom from the group consisting of nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 172 words
A compound represented by one of the formulae: ##STR4## wherein B is a nucleoside or deoxynucleoside base; A is H, OH or OR 2 in which R 2 is a blocking group; R is a blocking group; R 1 is a hydrocarbyl radical containing up to about 10 carbon atoms; and X is NR 2 R 3 , wherein R 2 and R 3 taken separately each represent alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl and cycloalkylalkyl containing up to 10 carbon atoms; R 2 and R 3 when taken together form an alkylene chain containing up to 5 carbon atoms in the principal chain and a total of up to 10 carbon atoms with both terminal valence bonds of said chain being attached to the nitrogen atom to which R 2 and R 3 are attached; and R 2 and R 3 when taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a saturated nitrogen heterocycle including at least one additional heteroatom from the group consisting of nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 170 words
A compound represented by the formula: ##STR5## wherein B is a nucleoside or deoxynucleoside base; A is H, OH or OR 2 in which R 2 is a blocking group; R is a blocking group; R 1 is a hydrocarbyl radical containing up to about 10 carbon atoms; and X is NR 2 R 3 , wherein R 2 and R 3 taken separately each represent alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl and cycloalkylalkyl containing up to 10 carbon atoms; R 2 and R 3 when taken together form an alkylene chain containing up to 5 carbon atoms in the principal chain and a total of up to 10 carbon atoms with both terminal valence bonds of said chain being attached to the nitrogen atom to which R 2 and R 3 are attached; and R 2 and R 3 when taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a saturated nitrogen heterocycle including at least one additional heteroatom from the group consisting of nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 170 words
A compound represented by the formula: ##STR5## wherein B is a nucleoside or deoxynucleoside base; A is H, OH or OR 2 in which R 2 is a blocking group; R is a blocking group; R 1 is a hydrocarbyl radical containing up to about 10 carbon atoms; and X is NR 2 R 3 , wherein R 2 and R 3 taken separately each represent alkyl, aryl, aralkyl, cycloalkyl and cycloalkylalkyl containing up to 10 carbon atoms; R 2 and R 3 when taken together form an alkylene chain containing up to 5 carbon atoms in the principal chain and a total of up to 10 carbon atoms with both terminal valence bonds of said chain being attached to the nitrogen atom to which R 2 and R 3 are attached; and R 2 and R 3 when taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a saturated nitrogen heterocycle including at least one additional heteroatom from the group consisting of nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur.
