We have developed a novel method for the synthesis of the 尾-anomer of 4鈥?thio-C-ribonucleosides from 3,5-O-(di-tert-butylsilylene)-4-thiofuranoid glycal. Palladium-catalyzed coupling of 1-tributylstannyl-4-thiofuranoid glycal with iodobenzene or a heteroaryl halide gave 1-C-phenyl- or 1-C-heteroaryl-glycals. Hydroboration of these glycals proceeded at the 伪-face, and subsequent alkaline hydrogen peroxide treatment of the resulting 2鈥?伪-borane furnished the respective 尾-anomer of 4鈥?thio-C-ribonucleosides. These results demonstrate that this synthetic method has a wider scope in terms of heterocyclic base structure. During this study, unexpected Markovnikov-oriented hydroboration has been observed to lead to the respective 1鈥?伪-boranes. These 1鈥?boranes were converted into either the ring-opened structure or the 2鈥?deoxy derivatives depending upon their stability.
