A synthetic method for (2'S)-2'-C-alkyl-2'-deoxyuridines (9) has been described. Catalytic hydrogenation of 1-[2-C-alkynyl-2-O-methoxalyl-3,5-O-TIPDS-beta-D-arabino-pentofuranosyl]uracils (5) gave 1-[2-C-(2-alkyl)-2-O-methoxalyl-3,5-O-TIPDS-beta-D-arabino-pentofuranosyl]uracils (4) as a major product, which were then subjected to the radical deoxygenation, affording (2'S)-2'-alkyl-2'-deoxy-3',5'-O-TIPDS-uridines (7) along with a small amount of their 2'R epimers.
