Abstract New 9-(aryloxyalkyl) derivatives of adenine have been prepared by alkylation of adenine with tosylates, bromides, and α-chloro ethers containing terminal aromatic fragments in anhydrous DMF in the presence of potassium carbonate. The compounds of the 9-(2-phenoxyethyl) adenine series appear to be highly reactive against cytomegaloviruses of mankind in vitro, while derivatives of 9-(2-benzyloxyethyl) adenine ...
