A stereoselective glycosylation procedure is described for the synthesis of protected alpha- and beta-2'-deoxy-2-thiouridine (dS2U) in 68% and 94% yield, respectively. Evidence is presented that suggests the reaction proceeds through a silylated thioglycoside intermediate. This intermediate undergoes an efficient S2-->N1 rearrangement mediated by SnCl4. The phosphoramidite and phosphodiester synthons and a dS2U dinucleotide are also synthesized and the X-ray structure of beta-dS2U is presented.
