2-Pentanol → 2-[(1-Methylbutyl)oxy]-9-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-9H-purin-6-amine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To 2-pentanol (3.65 mL) was added sodium tert-butoxide (760 mg) in portions over 5 mins. The mixture was stirred at room temperature until homogeneous. 2-Chloro-9-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)-9H-purin-6-amine (500 mg) was added and the reaction was heated at 50° C. overnight, then for a further 72 h. The reaction mixture was cooled and quenched with water (10 mL) and was extracted with EtOAc (3×25 mL). The organics were combined, washed with brine (30 mL), dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to give crude title compound as a viscous yellow oil.
