Disclosed are O-protected compounds of the formula (I):wherein B is an optionally protected nucleobase, and R1-R3 are as described herein, a method of preparing such compounds, and a method of preparing oligonucleotides such as RNA starting from such compounds. The O-protected compounds have one or more advantages, for example, the 2'-O-protected compound is stable during the various reaction steps involved in oligonucleotide synthesis; the protecting group can be easily removed after the synthesis of the oligonucleotide, for example, by reaction with tetrabutylammonium fluoride; and/or the O-protected groups do not generate DNA/RNA alkylating side products, which have been reported during removal of 2'-O-(2-cyanoethyl)oxymethyl or 2'-O-[2-(4-tolylsulfonyl)ethoxymethyl groups under similar conditions.
