Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

1.9 g (10 mmol) of 2,6-dichloro-purine and 8.05 g (50 mmol) of 3-trifluoromethyl-aniline (Fluka, Buchs, Switzerland) in 60 ml of n-butanol and 3 ml of DMF are stirred at 60° C. for 6 h. 50 ml of ethyl acetate are added to the cooled reaction solution and the precipitate is filtered off and further stirred in 40 ml of isopropanol at 40° C. for 60 min. After filtration with suction and drying, 2-chloro-6-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl-amino)-purine is obtained; m.p. 248–250° C.; FAB-MS: (M+H)+=314; Rf=0.45 (methylene chloride:methanol=95:5).
