Purine derivatives can be acquired from alkylation at N-7 and N-9. In this work, the reaction conditions have been optimized to obtain the alkylation products of N-9 regioselectively. Different bases have been tried and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide has led to the best results. The reaction depends on the type of base and solvent used and improves considerably when the aid of microwave irradiation is used, which also considerably reduces the reaction time by reducing the formation of secondary products.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Vinuesa, Arturo, et al.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/PurinesCompostos heterocíclicsSíntesi orgànicaPurinesHeterocyclic compoundsOrganic synthesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7179652022-03-03info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
