Abstract

[reaction: see text] Protected 2'-deoxynucleoside and nucleoside derivatives of 6-fluoropurine, 6-(3-methylbutyl)sulfanylpurine, and 6-(3-methylbutyl)ylsulfonylpurine undergo nickel- or palladium-mediated C-C cross-coupling with arylboronic acids to give good yields of 6-arylpurine products.
