Abstract
Ribonucleotide (RNA) analogs potentially stable to enzymatic hydrolysis were prepared and characterized. Computational investigations and DNA polymerase assay revealed that this class of compounds with a modified triphosphate with bridging difluoromethyl groups exhibits the correct polarity and minimal steric effects compared to the natural molecule.
