Abstract

A process for the preparation of 2,6-diamino-9-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)purine (V) by reacting 2,6-di(alkoxyacetamido)purine (II) with 2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-1-chloro-alpha-D-arabinofuranose (III) to produce 2,6-di(alkoxyacetamido)-9-(2,3,5-tri-O-benzyl-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl)puri ne (IV) and then deprotecting the 2,6-positions to produce the 2,6-diamine (V) is described. The process provides purine (V) in high yield. Purine (V) is an intermediate in the preparation of 9-beta-D-arabinofuranosyl-2-fluoroadenine which is a cytotoxic agent.
