Reaction Steps

To a suspension of 2,6-dichloropurine (2 g, 10.6 mmol) in n-butanol (3 ml), is added ethylamine (2M in THF)(15 ml). The solution is stirred at 84° C. for 2.5 hours and then cooled to ambient and stirred for a further 2 hours. The resulting precipitate is isolated by filtration, washed with n-butanol, methanol and ethyl acetate. The solid is dried at 70° C., under vacuum, for 16 hours to give 6-ethylamino-2-chloropurine; ES+ (M+1)197.5,198.2; mp 237-239° C.
