Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-[(2,2-dimethylpentyl)oxy]-9-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-9H-purin-6-amine (372 mg) in dry chloroform (4.05 mL) at 0° C. was added NBS (209 mg) in a single portion. The reaction was warmed to room temperature and was stirred for 5 h. The mixture was taken up into DCM (20 mL) and washed with water (30 mL). The organics were separated and dried using a hydrophobic frit then concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound as a green/brown viscous foam (475 mg).
