Saccharin 1-methylimidazole
Saccharin 1-methylimidazole (SMI) is a versatile activating reagent employed in the chemical synthesis of oligonucleotides for both DNA and RNA. It facilitates phosphoramidite coupling in solid-phase synthesis, a foundational technique used extensively in vitro for constructing primers, probes, and synthetic genes in molecular biology and therapeutic research.
