Reaction Steps

To a solution of 7-benzyl-1-(3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)propyl)-8-chloro-3-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione (340 mg, 0.56 mmol) in ethyl alcohol (20 mL) was added concentrated HCl (2 mL). The mixture was stirred at 80° C. overnight. The reaction was concentrated, neutralized with saturated sodium bicarbonate, extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated to give 8-chloro-7-(4-chlorobenzyl)-1-(3-hydroxypropyl)-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione (180 mg, 87.5% yield) as colorless oil. LCMS retention time 1.990 min; LCMS MH+ 369.
