1-(2-O-Acetyl-3,5,6-tri-O-benzoyl-beta-D-glucofuranosyl)thymine (1) was converted into the 2,2'-anhydro derivative 4 by selective deacetylation, mesylation, and treatment with 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene. Cleavage of the 2,2'-anhydro ring in 4 with hydrogen bromide or hydrogen chloride led to

Abstract
Free radicals generated by reaction of protected methyl 2,3‐ dideoxy‐3‐iodopentofuranosides 2, 3, and 9 with tributyltin hydride in the presence of a radical initiator (AIBN) were treated with acrolein to give methyl 2,3‐dideoxy‐3‐(3‐oxopropyl)pentofuranosides 4 and 5. Reduction of 5 with Sodium borohydride followed by protection of hydroxy groups by reaction with tert‐butyl chlorodiphenylsilane gave the carbohydrate derivative 11 which was condensed with silylated thymine to afford a separable mixture of α‐ and β‐nucleosides 13 and 14. These nucleosides were subsequently deprotected to give the 3′‐propyl‐extended thymidine 16 and its corresponding α‐isomer 15.
