We have developed several novel ways to prepare DNA. In each, the deprotection step in each synthesis cycle is accomplished with light. The group we developed for this process is dimethoxybenzoin (DMB) which, when attached to acidic functionalities, is readily removed with long wavelength (350nm) UV irradiation that will not damage the DNA bases.
