Reaction Steps

To a solution of 6-bromomethyl-2,4-pteridinediamine hydrobromide (67.3 mg, 0.2003 mmol) in anhydrous N,N dimethylacetamide was added 2-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl) ethylamine (43.6 mg, 0.23 mmol). Under positive pressure of Argon, iPr2EtN (32.63 ul) was added. The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 4 hrs and then at Room temperature overnight. The crude product was poured into saturated bicarbonate solution. The resulted precipitate was collected and purified by preparative HPLC. 14.8 mg product was obtained. Yield: 22.6%; 1H NMR (500 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 2.69242 (b, 4H), 4.03353 (s, 2H), 6.37542–6.39065 (d, J=7.615 Hz, 1H), 6.4851(s, 1H), 6.56632–6.58226 (d, J=7.97 Hz, 1H), 8.80972 (s, 1H); ESI-MS: m/z 328 (M++1)
