Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 2-chloro-9-ethyl-9H-purin-6-ylamine (0.2 g, 1.01 mmol), a compound of formula (3), and dry sodium hydroxide (5 mmol) was added benzyl alcohol (9.0 mmol). This mixture was heated at 85° C. for 3 hours. The solvent was then removed under reduced pressure and the residue was neutralized with 2N HCl and extracted with CHCl3. The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on a silica gel column eluting with a mixture of ethyl acetate/cyclohexane/methanol (60/33/5) to give 2-benzyloxy-9-ethyl-9H-purin-6-ylamine as a chromatographically pure solid.
