Abstract

The invention is directed to a method of incorporating expanded porphyrins, and particularly of incorporating a sapphyrin or a texaphyrin, before, during, or after chemical synthesis of an oligomer to form an expanded porphyrin-oligonucleotide conjugate, and particularly a sapphyrin- or texaphyrin-oligonucleotide conjugate. This method includes reacting derivatized nucleotides and a sapphyrin or a texaphyrin in a desired order in an automated or manual DNA synthesizer having a solid support to form a sapphyrin- or a texaphyrin-oligonucleotide conjugate.
