Abstract

The reaction of adenine derivatives with nitrite esters in the presence of arenes was examined and found to give 6-arylpurines in good (83%) to poor (11%) yield. The arylated products consisted only of the meta and para isomers; none of the anticipated ortho isomers were found. The predominance of meta-and para-substituted producta is attributed to steric effects. The evidence that the reaction proceeds via a purine radical includes light ...
