title: Highly diastereoselective synthesis of modified nucleosides via an asymmetric multicomponent reaction.
abstract: We have developed a practical synthesis of unique nucleoside derivatives via TiCl(4) promoted multicomponent reaction of optically active dihydrofuran, ethyl pyruvate/glyoxylate, and a TMS protected nucleobase in a single-pot operation.
