Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include methods for double coupling a nucleoside phosphoramidite during synthesis of an oligonucleotide. The method can include coupling a free hydroxyl group of a nucleoside residue with a first sample of a protected nucleoside phosphoramidite via an internucleoside P(III) linkage, followed by exposure to an oxidizing agent prior to a second coupling step with a second sample of the protected nucleoside phosphoramidite, and further exposure to an oxidizing agent. The method finds use in synthesizing an oligonucleotide on a solid phase support, such as a planar surface. The double coupling method can be utilized at one or more nucleotide positions during oligonucleotide synthesis thereby reducing single base deletion rates. Oligonucleotide containing compositions synthesized according to the disclosed methods are also provided.
