Abstract: Nine nucleotide formylphenyl esters at the terminal phosphate residue have been obtained via N-methylimidazolides (for GMP and GDP) or trimetaphosphate (lor GTP) by the reaction with a formylphenol (4-hydroxy-, 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-, or 2-hydroxyben-zaldehyde) and characterized by UV spectroscopy, ion-exchange chromatography, and reversed-phase HPLC. They are stable towards phosphomonoesterase. Some of them have been used for highly selective affinity labelling of the E. coli RNA polymerase.
