title: An efficient synthesis of methyl 2,3-anhydro-alpha-D-ribofuranoside.
abstract: An efficient synthesis of methyl 2,3-anhydro-alpha-D-ribofuranoside is reported. Its preparation is achieved via a four-step sequence from methyl 2,3,5-tri-O-benzoyl-alpha-D-arabinofuranoside in 74% overall yield.
