A facile access to 2-deoxy-L-ribose

The title compound was prepared in five steps starting from R-(+)-5-benzyloxymethyl-5H-furan-2-one 1 via syn-dihydroxylation of its double bond, regioselective tosylation of the 2-OH group in the thus obtained diol 2 followed by selective deoxygenation of that position.
