Participants

Reaction Steps

By utilizing the well known method, 3-methyl-7-(2-butyn-1-yl)-8-bromo-xanthine 1a (156 mg, 0.53 mmol) was dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (3 ml). 2-bromomethyl-5-fluoro-1,3-benzothiazole (140 mg, 0.57 mmol), potassium carbonate (118 mg, 0.79 mmol) were added to give a reaction mixture. The obtained reaction mixture was reacted overnight at room temperature and TLC was used to monitor the reaction progress. After the reaction was completed, the obtained reaction mixture was poured into water, suction filtered, and the obtained solid was washed with water, dried to give 1-[(5-fluoro-1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)methyl]-3-methyl-7-(2-butyn-1-yl)-8-bromo-xanthine 1b (240 mg, off-white solid), yield: 99%.
