Trans-cyclooctene (TCO) amidite is a hydroxyl reactive block used to introduce a TCO moiety into substrates containing primary or secondary hydroxyl group, and is especially useful in preparation of TCO-modified oligonucleotides.

Trans-cyclooctene readily reacts with tetrazines via inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder cycloaddition (IEDDA). TCO-Tetrazine ligation possesses ultrafast kinetics, selectivity, and long-term stability in aqueous media, which is important in low-concentration systems applications such as protein-protein conjugations, etc.

Recommendations for using the reagent:

Coupling: Standard conditions identical to normal nucleobases.

Oxidation: TCO well tolerates iodine oxidation step conditions.

Deprotection: Exclude the dimethoxytrityl (DMT) removal step and use the Dmt-ON protocol after amidite coupling and oxidation.

Cleavage: AMA mixture (concentrated aqueous ammonia/40% methylamine 1:1) for 15 min at 65°C
