Methylamine → 3-Methoxy-N-methyl-4-(7H-purin-8-yl)benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Forty milliliters of ethanolic methylamine solution were added to 0.42 gm of 8-(2'-methoxy-4'-chlorocarbonylphenyl)-purine hydrochloride (see Example 43), with cooling, and the mixture was refluxed for 30 minutes. It was then concentrated by evaporation, and the product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel [eluant: methylene chloride/ethanol (8:2)].
