To provide an excellent amidite for synthesizing modified nucleic acid, which enables a protective group therein to be removed under a moderate condition, thereby stably producing a hydroxyl group-containing modified nucleic acid, and a method for synthesizing modified nucleic acid using the amidite. Specifically, an amidite for synthesizing modified nucleic acid, expressed by General Formula (I): where X represents a base, Y represents a substituent, Z represents a protective group for protecting a hydroxyl group in the substituent, and Q represents one of a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group and a hydroxyl group protected by a protective group, wherein the protective group can be removed in an aprotic solvent, and when the protective group is removed, the hydroxyl group emerges in the substituent, and a method for synthesizing modified nucleic acid using the amidite. |
