A BC-tree (block-cutpoint-tree) is a tree (with at least two vertices) where the distance between any two leaves is even. Motivated from the study of the “core” of a graph, BC-trees provide an interesting class of trees. We consider questions related to BC-trees as an effort to make modest progress towards the understanding of this concept. Constructive algorithms are provided for BC-trees with...

A new method is reported for the synthesis of oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing 2-aminopurine residues at selected sites. This method involves protection of the 2-aminopurine ribonucleoside, reduction to the deoxyribonucleoside and standard preparation of the 5'-0- (4,4'-dimethoxytrityl)-3'-O-(2-cyanoethyl)-N,N- diisopropylphosphoramidite. The 2-aminopurine phosphoramidite prepared by this m...
