A synthesis of [2.2.1]bicyclo nucleosides which is shorter and provides higher overall yields proceeds via the key intermediate of the general formula III, wherein R
4
and R
5
are, for instance, sulfonates and R
7
is, for instance, a halogen or an acetate. From compounds of the general formula II, such as 3-O-aryl-4-C-hydroxymethyl-1,2-O-isopropylidene-&agr;-D-ribofuranose, intermediates of the general formula III are suitable for coupling with silylated nucleobases. Upon one-pot base-induced ring-closure and desulfonation of the formed [2.2.1]bicyclo nucleoside, a short route to each the LNA (Locked Nucleic Acid) derivatives of adenosine, cytosine, uridine, thymidine and guanidine is demonstrated. The use of the 5′-sulfonated ring-closed intermediate also allows for synthesis of 5′-amino- and thio-LNAs.
