Reaction Steps

A solution of 2-chloro-6-(2-furyl)-1H-purine (1.1 g, 5.0 mmol) and Pd(PPh3)4 (0.58 g, 0.5 mmol) in 1,2-dichloroethane (50 mL) at room temperature was treated dropwise with trimethylaluminium (3.3 mL, 2.0 M hexane), refluxed for 16 h, treated with water (100 mL) then EtOAc (100 mL), stirred for 60 h and filtered through glass microfibre paper. The organic phase was separated, dried (MgSO4), concentrated in vacuo and the resulting solid recrystallised from 90% ethanol to give the title compound (0.30 g, 30%) as a pale brown solid.
