Abstract
Stereoselective rearrangement of 6,7-epoxy-3-oxabicyclo[3.2.0]heptan-2-ones 2 and 3 in water afforded a cis-fused butyrolactone as a mixture of two ep imers 1a-b. These were used as the starting materials to prepare new bicycl onucleosides 8a-b. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
