Abstract

8-Aminoadenine derivatives 2 were obtained from 8-bromoadenines 1 in one-pot reaction via 8-azidoadenines. Reaction of 8-bromoadenines 1 with methylamine or dimethylamine in ethanol afforded the corresponding N9-substituted 8-(methylamino)adenines 3 and 8-(dimethylamino)adenines 4. Alkylation of 8-aminoadenine (2a) with diverse alkylation agents afforded N9-substituted 8-aminoadenine derivatives 2, and alkylation of 8-(dimethylamino)adenine (4a) gave mixtures of the corresponding N9-substituted 8-(dimethylamino)adenines 4 and their N3-substituted regioisomers 5. 8,3'-N-Anhydro derivatives 7 were prepared by tosylation of (S)-8-bromo-9-{2-[(diisopropoxyphosphoryl)- methoxy]-3-hydroxypropyl}adenine (1c) followed by treatment with methanolic ammonia or methylamine solution.
