Iodine-catalyzed oxidative functionalization of purines with (thio)ethers or methylarenes for the synthesis of purin-8-one analogues

An efficient oxidative functionalization of purine-like substrates with (thio)ethers or methylarenes under mild conditions is described. Using I2as the catalyst, and TBHP as the oxidant, this protocol provides a valuable synthetic tool for the assembly of a wide range of 9-alkyl(benzyl)purin-8-one derivatives with high atom- and step-economy and exceptional functional group tolerance.

A facile conversion of tetrahydropyranyl ethers to the corresponding bromides and iodides

Tetrahydropyranyl ethers are converted to the corresponding bromides and iodides upon reaction with NaI (or Libr) and BF3.Et2O (or ClSiMe3).
