Reaction Steps

To a solution of 7-(4-chlorobenzyl)-3-methyl-8-(3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenoxy)-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione (100 mg, 0.215 mmol, Intermediate 9) in DMF (3 mL) was added 1,2-dibromoethane (100 mg, 0.532 mmol), followed by potassium carbonate (60 mg, 0.429 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 80° C. overnight. The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and water, and the phases were separated. The organic phase was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give crude product, which was purified by recrystallization from ethanol to give 1-(2-bromoethyl)-7-(4-chlorobenzyl)-3-methyl-8-(3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenoxy)-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione (120 mg, 97.6% yield) as white solid. LCMS retention time 2.103 min; LCMS MH+ 573.
