We have developed 2'-O-methyl-RNAs having phosphorylated cyclohexane at the 5' and/or 3'-terminal adenine. These 2'-O-methyl-RNAs formed less stable duplex with the longer target RNA than that with the short target RNA. We tried to improve the short-RNA selective hybridization property by the synthesis of 2'-O-methyl-RNAs having terminal guanine modifications.
