1. A method for recovering synthesized oligonucleotides from a solid support, the method comprising the steps of;
- (1) providing a solid synthetic support having synthesized oligonucleotides bound thereto, and (2) incubating the solid support with an anhydrous amine reagent in an organic solvent solution under conditions suitable to cleave and deprotect the oligonucleotide, and (3) removing the solution phase reagent in a manner that substantially removes free residues of cleaved protecting groups and permits the cleaved and deprotected oligonucleotide to be preferentially retained on the support.

Abstract
A method for recovering synthesized oligonucleotides from a solid support that includes the step of incubating the solid support with an anhydrous amine reagent under conditions suitable to cleave and deprotect the oligonucleotide. The cleaved and deprotected oligonucleotide will be substantially insoluble in the reagent and/or will exhibit preferential affinity for the support. Reagent kits for use in such a method, and cleaved, deprotected oligonucleotides prepared by means of such a method are provided.

- 11. A composition comprising a solid support and a cleaved, deprotected synthetic oligonucleotide thereon, wherein the oligonucleotide has been cleaved and deprotected by incubating the solid support with an anhydrous amine reagent in an organic solvent solution under conditions suitable to cleave and deprotect the oligonucleotide, and wherein the solution phase reagent has been removed in a manner that substantially removes free residues of cleaved protecting groups and permits the cleaved and deprotected oligonucleotide to be preferentially retained on the support.
