1. A method of performing post-synthesis deprotection of a synthetic precursor of a nucleic acid, comprising:
- providing a synthetic precursor of a nucleic acid comprising at least one protecting group selected from the group consisting of;
a base protecting group, a 2′
-hydroxyl protecting group, and a combination thereof, anddeprotecting at least one of the protecting groups of said synthetic precursor of a nucleic acid by contacting said precursor with a solution comprising an α
-effect nucleophile, wherein the solution is at a pH of about 4 to 11, and wherein the α
-effect nucleophile has a pKa of about 4 to 13.
