A diastereoselective synthesis of the nucleoside adducts corresponding to a cis ring-opening of the carcinogen (+/-)-7 beta, 8 alpha-dihydroxy-9 alpha,10 alpha-epoxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (BaP DE-2) by 2'-deoxyadenosine and 2'-deoxyguanosine is described. The key intermediate (+/-)-10alpha-amino-7beta,8alpha,9alpha-trihydroxy-7,8,9,10-tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene was synthesized by a highly diastereoselective dihydroxylation
