Reaction Steps

2-(Butyloxy)-8-(methyloxy)-9H-purin-6-amine trifluoroacetate (4.7 g, 13.38 mmol) and potassium carbonate (4.62 g, 33.4 mmol) in dry DMF (50 ml) were stirred and heated at 50° C., under nitrogen, for 75 mins. The mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and then cooled to 0° C. and 1-bromo-3-chloropropane (2.106 g, 13.38 mmol) was added. The mixture was stirred at 0 to 10° C. for approximately 5 hours then allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred for approximately a further 40 hours when LCMS indicated approximately 70% of the desired product.
