A New Efficient Method for Stereoselective Synthesis of 2-Deoxy-C-ribofuranosides

Abstract
Stereoselective C-glycosylation of 2-deoxyribose derivatives having 3-O-thiocarbamoyl directing group with carbon nucleophiles was successfully carried out by using SiCl(OTf)3 as an activator. Several 2-deoxy-β-C-ribofuranosides which can be easily converted to 2′-deoxy-C-nucleosides were obtained in good yields with high stereoselectivities.
