Abstract
A methodology for the synthesis of (E)-6-alkenylpurines, starting from 6-iodopurines, based on a Pd-catalyzed stannation/protodestannation protocol, is described. The alkynylation reactions were catalyzed by Pd(OAc)2/PPh3 in acetonitrile. The Pd-catalyzed stannation itself provided a mixture of Z regioisomers but following protodestannation using TFA induces Z to E isomerization giving (E)-6-alkenylpurines. The reactivity of other 2- and 8-alkynyl purines has also been studied.
