Abstract 9-(2-Deoxy-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)-6-(4-substituted phenyl) purines, 9-(5- deoxy-β-D-ribofuranosyl)-6-(4-substituted phenyl) purines and 9-(2, 3-dihydroxypropyl)-6-(4- substituted phenyl) purines were prepared by the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions of the corresponding protected 9-substituted 6-chloropurines with substituted phenylboronic acids followed by MeONa mediated deprotection. In contrast to the highly active 6- ...
