1-alpha-O-Methyl-3-O,5-O-TIPDS-arabinose was converted, in multiple steps,
to 2,6-dioxabicyclo[3,2,1]octane derivatives, which were condensed with sil
ylated nucleoside bases to give the desired 2',4'-bridged bicyclonucleoside
s. In this article, synthesis and stereochemical assignments of the bicyclo
nucleosides are described. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserv
