Methyl 9-bromononanoate → 6-(N-Allyl-N-cyclohexylamino)-9-(8-methoxycarbonyloctyl)-purine

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 0.7 g. (30 mmole) sodium in 100 ml. propan-2-ol are added 7.7 g. (30 mmole) 6-(N-allyl-N-cyclohexylamino)-purine (compound of Example 8 j), the reaction mixture is heated to 40° C. for 10 minutes, 7.5 g. (30 mmole) methyl 9-bromononanoate are added thereto, the reaction mixture is heated under reflux for 16 hours and evaporated and the residue is taken up in water, extracted with dichloromethane, dried and evaporated. After chromatography on silica gel (elution agent: dichloromethane/methanol 95:5 v/v), there are obtained 4.8 g. of the title compound (37% of theory) in the form of an oil.
