Abstract

Abstract 2, 6, 9-Trisubstituted purines are brominated in high yields using pyridinium tribromide as the brominating reagent. This procedure works excellently for electron-rich purines having electron-donating substituents at the 2-and 6-positions. The use of pyridinium tribromide, a crystalline alternative to elemental bromine, improves the bromination procedure for this type of substrate as the reagent is easy to handle and the ...
