The chemical synthesis of two new G-rich Tetra-End-Linked-oligodeoxyribonucleotides (TEL-ODNs) as well as (1)H-NMR and CD spectra of the corresponding monomolecular quadruplexes (IVa and IVb) has been reported. The new TEL-ODNs, characterized by the presence of short branches in the linker moiety, could be very useful for the achievement of monomolecular quadruplexes with predetermined strand orientation.
