3% Dichloroacetic Acid in Methylene Chloride – Deblocking Reagent for Oligonucleotide Synthesis
This reagent combines 3% dichloroacetic acid (DCA) with methylene chloride (dichloromethane, DCM) for use in the deblocking (detritylation) step of phosphoramidite oligonucleotide synthesis. It provides a milder alternative to standard 10% DCA solutions, offering better control over DMT removal — particularly useful when synthesizing longer or modified oligos.
The methylene chloride solvent ensures effective delivery and reactivity of DCA while supporting compatibility with common oligo synthesis platforms.
